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?

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

Well, Fenway Park might not be much of a tourist attraction but I don't find Yankee Stadium to friendly on the eyes either, CC

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.
