Historic Sights That Are Nothing But Hype

The Hope Diamond

The Hope Diamond is another disappointing one. Lots of people were filming it, and I could hardly see it. Why were people videotaping a rock? And it’s in a small, dark room. It’s at the Smithsonian Natural History Museum in DC.

People were elbowing each other out of the way to see it when I went. I’m a rock nerd to the 100th degree, but the Hope Diamond was underwhelming.
