    Gibby A Break

    In the spirit of the Halloween season, we've decided to stray from the format ... and into the realm of the unknown. Tune in, true believers, for secrets uncovered, myths explored and hoaxes revealed! Put this in your myth and bust it.

  2. 14

    Cluck-A-Doodle-Doo

    Ok. Story goes: If you sell this certain type of chicken, the company will park-a-chicken wherever you need. Except ... it's not a chicken.

  3. 13

    3 Fingers In A Jar

    The moral of this next story is: if you lose your fingers, save 'em. They could end up in a museum 126 years later. Now THAT'S leaving your mark.

  4. 12

    Girl Scout Snookies

    Uh, that title has little to do with the following story about Snook's Dream Cars ... but it was the best we could do.

  5. 11

    My Kind Of (Ghost) Town

    This town ain't big enough for the 2 of us. No, wait. It is. Ghost Town may look even more empty than usual. It did not open this summer, as it has in years past. Luckily, the owner let us have a look-see.

  6. 10

    Hold Your Applause

    ... because this guy can't hold anything else. If you're ever in Marblehead, near Cedar Point, you can wave to this guy, but it would make him feel inadequate.

  7. 9

    Pre-Hysterical

    Grab your Dinoculars and join us for A Brief History IN Time. We're about to embark on a voyage to the quintessential Roadside Attraction - PREHISTORIC FOREST!

  8. 8

    Building, A Mystery

    What evil lurks in the heart of Mystery Hill? You've always wondered - don't deny it. Check out the original "Shake Shack" where perspective gets turned on its ear.

  9. 7

    Frog-tastic

    Take a hop with us around Toledo as we hunt down the wiley and elusive "giant frogs."

  10. 6

    Iglooney Tunes

    We may not all be able to rub noses with the Eskimoses, but we've uncovered an unlikely story ... "A Tale of Two Igloos." Featuring: Nanook of the Midwest.*

  11. 5

    Two Kids In Some Kind Of Store

    Located at Sylvania and Lewis in Toledo, this place is sugar, spice and everything nice. It's chock full of Bit O' Honey, Slo Pokes and Everlasting Gobstoppers. Hansel, Gretel - You've been warned. Also, keep watching for an extra special "bonus track."

  12. 4

    "Hello?! Is Anybody Home?!"

    Marty: "This is, uh, this is heavy duty Doc. Does it run like on regular unleaded gasoline?" Doc: "Unfortunately no. It requires something with a little more kick. Plutonium."

  13. 3

    I Neant To Do That

    We spotted this on U.S. 20 near Woodville. It was truly one of those, "Did that just say - ? Wait ... Turn the car around" moments. And that's pretty much what this guy is shooting for. Nission Accomplished.

  14. 2

    Bovine Intervention

    Sometimes roadside attractions are hard to spot. Not this one. "Knock Knock." "Who's there?" "Interrupting cow." "Interruptin-?" "MOO!"

  15. 1

    Pigtures

    It stands along U.S. 24 in Waterville. Anyone who's been through town can tell you - it's constantly dressed up in different outfits. That's right. A pig in different outfits. Home-grown Americana at its finest ... with a side of bacon.
