I'm a conniseur of weird tourist attractions. I loved the Tom Sawyer diorama in Hannibal Missouri…read morethe underground tour of Miles, Montana and the worlds most depressing theme park, "Ironworld" in Chilsholm Minnesota. But the Greyhound bus museum beats em all. Last year, our car broke down in Hibbing and we were stuck there for four days with a toddler. I tell you what, he loved this place.

They also had live greyhounds and other fun things for kids. If you like kitsch, then don't miss this. My personal favorite, the Bob Dylan sock sculpture wearing a bus driver's uniform in one of the displays.
