The fudge factory in Uranus, Missouri has a lot of great t-shirts and magnets. Just make sure you turn the right way when exiting the highway because Uranus is one way and Dixon is the other.

There was a place in South Dakota, somewhere near Mount Rushmore, where optical illusions made it look like a ball rolled uphill and chairs could stand on edge. Can’t remember thr name of it, though.

If you’re driving a road trip in the Dakotas or thereabouts, do not bother with Wall Drug.

Wall Drug is so notorious I’ve heard people complaining about it in Canada. And not even the bit north of it.

As the story goes, anyway, they’ve put signage up teasing it over and over again for quite a distance, but then you get there and it’s just a drug store.

Pretty much and inter-state billboard ad campaign for an off brand Walgreens.
