Anyone ever been to a really BAD tourist attraction?

There's this thing in Wisconsin (I think) called "The House on the Rock." This is by far the worst attraction on earth. It's a house built into a rock and it's got like 4 floors that are in the rock. It smells like mildew and there was no air (I actually saw people fainting!) The place looks like a clown nightmare. Ick.

Fenway Park in Boston, MA. Home of the Red Flops.

Well that's not really a tourist attraction but um...

Yeah. This huge duck on Long Island. It was really funny, cause it's this huge DUCK sitting next to the road. Other than that, it was a waste of time

OMG I've been there, and I have to agree with you. We always visit my dad's side of the family in WI, and my dad, of course, loves to take us to cheesy tourist places. LOL Was that the place with the "Infinity Point" where the room narrowed down and there was a little window on the ground where you can look out below you or something? Another cheesy WI tourist attraction I've been to is the "Wonder Spot". OMG That was so weird. This house was built on a slant or something, so if you hung onto a bar from the ceiling, you'd hang slanted. I don't remember everything because I was like seven when we went there. The lady there said how no one could walk upright at some point in the house, and she encouraged people to just try to do it. My uncle tried and walked perfectly straight. LOL

OMG You are really asking for it, girly. LOL Don't start on Fenway or the Red Sox. Okay? :D Fenway is an awesome tourist attraction. I love Fenway. It's just the coolest place. I could LIVE there. Okay, so maybe that's a little extreme... Don't be bashing my Soxies or Fenway. Hockey sticks can hurt... Ahem. LOL

Mm hm...forreal? Well you keep on, go ahead, say some more stuff about the Yanks. You'll regret it. Because the Yanks are the best team ever. It's an obvious fact.

Ok, we'll bring it. Let's see. So we'll have Keightee's hockey stick, my softball bat, the like five other baseball bat's at my house, my brother's golf clubs, the random hockey stick in my garage, all of the rakes and shovels here, all of the big long boards in my dad's wood piles, the ugly painted chair that my sister bought for $1.50, all of my dad's power tools, all of my brother's old Nerf guns and water guns etc., several long poles lying in my basement for who knows what reason, a fish pen, and a Jo helmet. Sounds even to me. :D We will definitely bring it on.

Sure, okay, uhuh, whatever you say... :rolleyes: Number one: that's a generic cheer. My softball team has done it. LOL :D Number two: it's not accurate. I'm sure it was just a typo putting "Yankees" there instead of "Red Sox". Ahem. :D

I have all the rakes and shovels here, my cousins snow board, all my dads bats, the 4 hockey sticks laying in my garage, my scanner, my vacuum cleaner, my water skiis, my river tube, my spray paint which can blind, all the other chemicals which can blind you, my skiis, all my kitchen utencils, my MR. FROGGIE [even tho he's dead] my sterio, and a buncha other crap.

Uhuh. :rolleyes: But you see, I've only named the things at my house and only the ones that came to mind right away. All of Keightee's "weapons" are yet to be named. Ahem. Other items of mine that come to mind now are my two vacuum cleaners, three canes, one walker, all of my kitchen utensils, and one of those old lady carts that they pull their groceries in. Beat that! :D LOL

We will definitely bring it. Are the skis your new "plan"? Heh. I thought you ate the Cheese Stick anyways... Keightee and I will get you, you little Yankees fan. LOL Jeez, you just gotta root for the home state's team! We'll try to convert you, I guess, but if that doesn't work, we must bring on the fight, I suppose. Get ready! LOL BTW, I'll tell "Jinny Exstead" enough anytime I want. :D

Another bad tourist attraction is um, I dunno right now, but I at least want to make an effort to stay on topic.

Ok, enough with the Jinny lines.
That is Nancy's only flaw. But, see, she can't help it! She's FROM NEW YORK! She's SUPPOSED to be a Yankees fan! YOU, on the other hand, are a Bay Stater, not a New Yorker. She has an excuse for being a Yankees fan. YOU do not. LOL!!!
