Ripley's - What's it got?

[El Tel]

Can someone tell me what kind of attraction Ripley's Believe It or Not is, what's there, and is it worth visiting?
Thanks

We went a few years ago and it was a great way to spend a couple hours. We had a lot of fun. Oddities and a few things that I don't want to tell because it would spoil someone's fun. We thought it was worth the price. Look for discount coupons, though. It's definitely NOT Disney caliber.

I thought it was ok, dh and I went together before the kids were born, Some stuff in there was pretty neat. THey have a website, I don't know if it's Ripleys.com, I think so, it will show you a few things inside.

We went to the ripley's in Orlando. It was a lot of fun and we bought little shrunken heads afterwards. It had some very odd things in the building. We just got a ripleys here in panama city but after going to the orlando one the ripleys here is definately not as good as Orlando's...

That's helped a lot. Thanks

We haven't done the one in Orlando. We have done the one in Gatlinburg and Niagara Falls. I think they're just "okay". If you really have nothing else to do- it can be amusing. However, I don't think I'd actually set aside time to plan it in.

There was lots of mocked up exhibits and photo's w/ Ripley's Believe or Not type facts. A lot of the stuff you've seen on TV. There are some trivia questions here and there. As well as a few hand's on type things.
