Such a wonderful, way out place! We saw the first UFO driving east on I-90, then the horses, then the cows on the boat. We got off at the next exit. Three roundabouts later, we were on the access road. Mike met us in his golf cart, filled us in, and off we were to see! Everything is for sale. There are so many items it's hard to see everything, but fun for photos and selfies.

- Roswell, New Mexico - International UFO Museum
Wonderfully kitschy. My favorite part is the brief panel about the X Files where the museum owners decided (rather tellingly) to wax poetic on how Agent Mulder represents the schizophrenic tendencies of ufo believers.
