CBS Sacramento are reporting that people trying to complete a 63-acre
corn maze in California are getting so lost that they're having to call
the police to get out. The maze was awarded the title of "world's
largest corn maze" by the Guinness Book of World Records back in 2007
and, according to its website, is 50% larger than the previous record
holder. According to visitors, once you enter it takes roughly 3.5 to 4
hours to get back out.
"There's a concern; there’s a bit of fear involved," said Deputy Daryl
Snedeker from the Solano County Sheriff’s Dept. "I think they are
overwhelmed. You can get a little worked up when you can’t get out of a
place and everything looks the same. But some people who get turned
around panic and dial 911 for help […] We don't laugh… It's not a comedy
to us, and our dispatchers have a very serious job, and they take every
call to 911 very serious."
