A woman from Waynesboro, Georgia has woken up one day to find that a giant KFC bucket had mysteriously appeared in her yard.

"I was driving by, I saw this giant Kentucky Fried Chicken bucket in my yard, and I thought for sure I was hallucinating, so I called my teenagers who were at home and had them go outside," describes Aleena Headrick.

She found out that her landlord, Freddie Taylor, had left the item there. It was part of his collection of old signs, UPI detailed. Headrick posted a photo of the bucket on Facebook and it became extremely popular.

The bucket is 7 feet (2.1 meters) tall and Headrick believes that it is 30 or 40 years old. She now intends to place it on a platform or pole to make it more visible for passers-by.
