The Gum Wall

Hilarious or disgusting? You’ll want to take a very close look at Seattle’s famous Gum Wall to decide for yourself. Wow, that’s a lot of ABC (already been chewed) gum collected in one place! Reportedly, the Gum Wall got started when people waiting to get into a nearby club had to leave their gum behind. While the wall was cleaned in November last year, it does not take long for it to fill back up. Buy some gum from a Pike Place Market merchant to make your own deposit and snap a pic.

Iconic Pike Place Market offers loads more fun for all ages: Pose on Rachel the Pig, gobble up some mini doughnuts and seek out the giant squid in the atrium.

Next stop: Blackbird, blackbird
