Indiana's Goebel Farms chooses Charlie Kirk image for corn maze

Jeremy Goebel said the maze was meant as a tribute and not an endorsement, as the post drew about 1,000 reactions and more than 200 shares.

  • Goebel Farms in Evansville, Indiana, unveiled an annual corn maze featuring the visage of late commentator Charlie Kirk on Wednesday, days before the one-year anniversary of his killing.
  • Kirk, the 31-year-old founder of Turning Point USA, was fatally shot while speaking to college students at Utah Valley University on September 10, 2025, remaining a polarizing public figure.
  • Jeremy Goebel designed the maze using GPS-guided computer systems installed in his tractor, and the Facebook announcement garnered about 1,000 reactions within four hours, reflecting both support and disagreement.
  • Addressing potential boycotts, Goebel stated, "We respect their right to make that decision," emphasizing the maze aims to encourage reflection on dialogue despite serious disagreements.
  • Legal disputes persist regarding Kirk's legacy; this May, a judge ordered Ball State University to pay $225,000 to an employee fired for criticizing the commentator.
