Attention, Tourists!

Looking for something else to do in Washington, D.C., besides endless monuments and galleries? Check out the Museum of Failure, WUSA-TV suggested.

The brainchild of Dr. Samuel West, the Museum of Failure is a traveling exhibition that features some of history's biggest busts, from Crystal Pepsi to Thirsty Cat (fish-flavored water for your cat).

"We need to be better at learning from failure," West said. "I want visitors to recognize that failure is an essential aspect of progress and innovation."

The museum also includes a Failure Confessional, where visitors can leave their own personal flops behind.

Don't fail to check it out: The museum will be open until Dec. 10. [WUSA, 9/12/2023]
