    That’s actually sad. Makes me want to go just so they can have their happy time.

      I used to drive between Denver and Phoenix a bunch and decided to stop in one time. They charge $29 just to see it, and put a fence around the entire crater so you can’t look at the hole unless you pay them.

        Well to be fair, they increased the value of the land by using a giant magnet to attract the asteroid. We wouldn’t have asteroid craters if it weren’t for brave entrepreneurs like this.

      They put up fences several years ago so you could no longer see it from Meteor Crater Road. It’s not a bad tour honestly and it’s just off interstate 40 near Winslow, AZ. I’d recommend it, ONCE lol.
