As kids, we loathed the boring, stuffy museums we were forced to visit. So we’ve compiled a must-see list that’s way more interesting than anything you’d see on a school trip. The most bizarre museums in America…
Willow Creek-China Flat Museum a.k.a. Bigfoot Museum (Willow Creek, CA)
Don’t believe in Sasquatch? You will once you see this museum’s collection of really big footprints. They’re plaster casts… what more proof do you people need?!
Mutter Museum a.k.a. House of Freaky Medical Sh-t (Philadelphia, PA)
Boasting a huge stockpile of human medical anomalies — like Joseph Hyrtl’s collection of skulls, 2,000 objects extracted from people’s throats, and the cancerous growth removed from President Grover Cleveland – we suggest you skip lunch before your visit.
Museum of Menstruation and Women’s Health a.k.a. The Period Museum (Virtual)
We don’t really know how to describe this one. It’s an online compendium of vagina-related stuff, curated by some weirdo. Highlights include:
- Large assortment of douche advertisements
- An underwear and panties directory
- And an article simply titled “odor”
If you’ve ever been curious about ladies’ “little friends,” this is the museum for you.
Pong Museum (Virtual)
An online tribute to the world’s first video game. Site includes a rare 1969 clip of two guys playing an early version of Pong. If you love watching other people play video games… well, then there’s something wrong with you.
The Hobo Museum (Britt, IA)
Featuring information about “hobos, rail-riders, and tramps,” as well as some tips on how to become a hobo, like this gem:
Makes ya want to eat beans from a can, doesn’t it?
The SPAM® Museum aka Pseudo-Food Museum (Austin, MN)
Yes, there is a whole museum dedicated to SPAM® — the delicious canned “food” that seems really funny until you actually taste it, and then it’s not funny, it’s just gross. The museum has meaty collections of packaging, ads, posters, recipes and our favorite… a Micro-SPAM-abrasion facial treatment. (Yes, they put SPAM® on your face.)
The Barf Bag Collection (Virtual)
A hurl-tastic collection of those little paper puke bags from airplanes. The guy who runs the site has over 1250 sick sacks from around the world (including this friendly one from Emirates Air). And there’s even a section where you can share your own barf bag stories! The only story we could come up with was the time we watched Two Girls One Cup.
