Your round-trip ticket to the wildest, wackiest, most outrageous people, places, and things the Garden State has to offer! Visit a tree-towering telephone pole farm; a record-breaking gargantuan brown bear called Goliath; and a cave-like craggy-walled coffee-brewing cafe. Meet a Hickory Dickory Dock clock-covering car artist; a gas station-turned- restaurant-owning undertaker; and a hot dog vendor and his cartoon-covered bus. Discover the real birthplace of baseball; a really graphic tombstone; and the real way to eat chicken at a medieval restaurant--two thumbs (and the rest of your fingers) up!
