Dis for the double barreled canon that sits in front of the Athens City Hall.

The canon was made during the Civil War. It was supposed to fire 2 canon balls at once with a chain in between them. It sounded like a good idea, but it never really worked right because they couldn't get it to fire the canon balls at exactly the same time.

Photo of the double barreled cannon.  Caption: The double barreled canon was a clever idea that didn't work.
