This place is as disgusting as it is amazing. I wonder how it started?? Worth a visit for sure. Don't forget to bring your own gum!

I expected the Gum Wall to be gross, but it was clean and not smelly. I loved adding my gum to this famous wall.

They scrapped all the gum off a couple years ago, but don't let that stop you. It is filled back up!! Go to the main sign with the clock. And to the left is an alley way that you go down and the Gum Wall is to the left.

It's still there, it still smells of minty bubblegum, people still push their gum onto other wads of gum.
