Historic Sights That Are Nothing But Hype

Plymouth Rock

I lived in the area and went to downtown Plymouth a few years ago with some friends. Parking in the summer is a nightmare, so I parked near this weird thing. I wondered what it was and went to check it out, and it was Plymouth Rock. It’s the saddest little rock, glued together and surrounded by trash and half in the tide.

The worst part is that there is no real “Plymouth Rock.” It was a legend; eventually, locals decided to pick a rock near the original Plymouth colony settlement to play the part. And that rock is the one they chose!
