They are the rest stops that give America's highways true personality:
roadside attractions. Unplanned by focus groups and unfranchised by mega-corporations,
roadside attractions are instead individual expressions of weirdness. Call
them commercial folk art on a large scale. Often created by lone dreamers,
these pseudo museums, parks, shops, and curiosities offer the kinds of unique
spectacles you won't find listed in official visitor guides: anatomically
incorrect dinosaurs, Miracle Tortillas, toilet-seat art, giant Muffler Men.
To find out about these eccentric bits of Americana, you need only turn to
roadsideamerica.com. Originally published as a book by Ken Smith, Mike
Wilkins, and Doug Kirby, Roadside America is now an Internet institution with
over 4,000 oddball attractions listed.
