According to Reddit user AdamE89, a cement truck crashed at the location and its mixer was simply too heavy to move.
The truck was filled with wet cement and on its way to assist in the building of a bridge over Oologah Lake in 1959 when it tipped over. By the time a tow truck made it over to the accident, the cement had hardened.They decided to tow the truck and come back for the mixer later.
They never did. And for 50 years, the bizarre local landmark was an easy target for graffiti artists and vandals. Thats until a couple of space geeks decided to do something constructive with it.
