Weekend Road Trip: National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum

Weekend Road Trip: National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum

Today we visit the National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, which is home to 10,000 bobbleheads inspired by sports, pop culture, politics, and even some niche viral Internet moments. Some even date back hundreds of years.

This episode is part of our Weekend Road Trip Series, where we bring you stories of the strange, incredible, and wondrous places right here in the United States, that you can see from the road. This series was produced in partnership with T-Mobile.

Check out the museum online and note that they do accept suggestions for new bobbleheads!
