According to a poll of British people, the Statue of Liberty and Times Square are two of the most disappointing tourist attractions in the world. On a list of the top ten most boring spots, they fall behind the Eiffel Tower and the Mona Lisa, both in Paris. We imagine if they didn't inherently hate the French so much, the English would have ranked the two New York gems at the top of the list. We have two responses: (1) You're never getting a street named after you now and (2) ahem, Stonehenge?
