Go to a famous monument in a state you've never been

People like to put up monuments. Whether it's to commemorate heroics or tragedy you'll find oddities sprinkled about town. And yet, these are the sort of things we walk right by in the daily grind. From the rotating cube in at Univ of Michigan to the Atomic bomb mushroom in Univ of Chicago, there's always something to look, to play, and pose with for a photo op. And maybe, just maybe we'll remember the monument the next time we're at wikipedia, and learn a little bit of something about the world around us.
