Ten wackiest attractions: take this sitting down

Monday, 30 Mar, 2010 0

Perhaps it’s no surprise but more visitors than ever are finding their way to TripAdvisor’s No. 1 of its “top ten wackiest attractions”: The Toilet Seat Museum in Alamo Heights, TX.
 

The lure is more than 700 decorated toilet seat lids in the over-sized garage that is the museum.
 

Visitors are also pouring into another top ten tourist attraction, Carhenge, which are jalopies painted gray to look like Stonehenge in Alliance, Neb. It cfame in at No. 2.
 

No three was Cadillac Ranch, 10 graffiti-covered Cadillacs sticking out of the ground in Amarillo, Texas.
 

The Museum of Pez Memorabilia in California came in fourth and Gatorland in Orlando, Fla., rounded out the top five.
 

The second five were a replica of the Eiffel tower in Paris, Texas; the House on the Rock in Spring Green, Wis.; Stonehenge II in Kerrville, Texas; the Exterrestrial Highway at Rachel, Nev.; and the 17,400-pound ball of twine in Darwin, Minn.
