This is where tourist traps and as we more lovingly call them, roadside attractions come in. On every long stretch of road in the middle of nowhere, you can count on hard working Americans and the businesses they've set up along the road to give you some entertainment, sell you some souvenirs, and most importantly, take your mind off the road for a little while.
Sure you'll be spending some extra money when you stop, but how much is a quirky and fun experience worth? Whether it's something silly like the biggest ball of twine in the world, or something terrifying and mysterious like "The Thing!", there's always something new to see or something new to learn about around every corner.
