In the Walmart parking lot north of West Hampden Avenue, after waiting a couple hours for rain and wind to pass, a crowd of onlookers witnessed a confectionery feat. In front of them, internet personality and Colorado resident Matthew Beem built a massive ice cream cone, aiming to set a new world record. At the moment of measurement, the giant treat stood 11 feet tall — surpassing the previous world record by about 11 inches, Beem said.
