We’ve all see the signs for them on the highway during a family road trip; the roadside attraction!

It might be the world’s biggest ball of yarn, a building that looks like a picnic basket or perhaps even a “Mystery Spot”, where the water supposedly flows UP hill! Every state has them and, whether we would like to admit it or not, one of these roadside attractions has called to us at one time or another in our lives. Even Lisa Way has contemplated a road trip to visit them all after she retires!

The website has collected the weirdest of the weird road side attraction in each of our 50 states! Take a look and get an early start on mapping out your old-lady-Lisa retirement road trip!
