The Mystery Spot
Guess the Mystery Spot

Every year we have a contest at the Tourist Trap. The "game of the creative guess" involved a short trek down a narrow trail into the swamp behind the Museum. Upon arriving at the "Spot", adventurers stared deep into bowels of the mystery. After examining all the facts and details the site had to offer, our heros would stomp back to the Trap and place their best guess on a small piece of paper and drop it into a box. At the end of the season Hoolie plucked the papers from the box and awarded the prizes. We don't have to tell you what the "Mystery Spot" really was, because you'd be pretty stupid not to guess it from some of the weird answers we received. Here are some of the best of the thousands of guesses.
