Little known attractions of Lynchburg and Central Virginia - so much weirdness! Wonderful stuff.



Wonderful stuff...almost all of it fake. The headless cat is a bad photoshop, the phallic silo is actually an old water tower in Ypsilanti, Michigan known locally as the "BBD" (Big Brick Dick"). I could go on, but just a little poking around and it becomes obvious that it is a hoax site.

It's obvious it's a joke site because of the multiple disclaimers.

I am a native of Virginny. What's more I lived near Vesuvius, Va., a real place, but alas Valleyville is not a real place. While none of these places/sites/phenomena have a basis in fact, if you ever go to Thomas Road Baptist (Jerry Falwell's church) in Lynchburg, you will long for the comparitive normalcy of "The Spock" the world's only church of Star Trek.

That was a great link! I'm only a hundred miles or so from the Lynchburg area and I'm thinking I'd like to take a driving tour.

Its all a hoax, but <br /> The Church of Star Trek is a great Futurama joke...(Matt Groening, Simpsons creator's new show)
