Tourists share their reactions to Plymouth Rock

[lechaise]

What the hell were they expecting? Everything in the US has to have a "wow" factor purely because they talk it up so much. The ones stating that it's impressive because of what it represents: that's the point, and they understood it, the others who thought it would be some stars and stripes decorated mountain, well it doesn't say much for their education.

[TheQuindecillion]

A million ppl a year? just think of how much money that brings to the town. Still, it's kind of neat to see the area near where the Pilgrims built their first settlement.

[trilobright]

Jeez guys, it's not famous for being the world's largest rock, or the most exciting. Also, I found it bizarre when I went off to college and told people I was from Plymouth, MA and they were always like, "Oh, like Plymouth Rock?" Wtf, is the rest of the town not mentioned in history books? There are so many historic sites in Plymouth and the surrounding towns, coming primarily to see the Rock is like visiting the Louvre just to see the cornerstone.

[aDinosaurMadeOfLegos]

guys... i live in plymouth WHY ARE YOU GUYS COMING HERE JUST FOR A STUPID ROCK???!!!!!! well its historic but my uncle got sooo pissed because he came here just to see a stupid rock.

[DollaBiIIz]

we didn land on plymouth rock, plymouth rock land it on us

[MAairsofter]

i drive by that rock almost everyday and i can definatley tell you its not the real rock

[jojohawk05]

in 10 years it will be 400 YEARS OLD!!!!

[MrSalmon88]

its not the real rock its just so tourist will come to are town every summer and spend money

[truemirror]

when I saw it I was like what????

The way it was described to me in school was a huge boulder that stuck out of the water. there was illustrations of people standing on this island type boulder a few yards from the beach, so of course I thought it was much much bigger.

[R0KURU]

same here man!

[kdx200r]

I am from plymouth and would like to apologize to all of you. Yeah its really that little rock, thats it :)

[calpaw]

I don't understand how they used this rock for a stepping stone; it's only several inches high and the Mayflower is pretty tall, they may as well just put their feet directly onto the sand

[jupitermoon10011]

@calpaw No no no....originally it was farther up the shore, and this is just a tip of the original rock, which was a big boulder....

[boxabicus]

thats just wrong pising on the ROCK whats wrong with u!!!!!!!

[BellaBoston]

everyone i know has urinated on this rock.. we love plymouth!

[Kristenxo4]

Well, what do you people expect, it's a rock, how do you want it to wow you it can't do anything!

[tjdpuck94]

i live in plymouth... ithink its the biggest joke... ts funny to watch peoples disapointed faces when they think it will be amazing

[TheFutureLooksGrimm]

@tjdpuck94 I thought it would be a huge mountain rock lol

[MobHeataEnt]

why all white people not surprising, but ask some minorities or most importantly some natives and their opinion.

[InstinctsOfaKiller]

Im native to Mass. but Im in Arizona currently and plan to go back to Mass when I finish high school! Im only 13 btw :( hI have many year bfore I go back

[InstinctsOfaKiller]

Im now 14 and moving back to Mass after 8th grade which is in 16 days.

[Kristenxo4]

Hahah thats funny because I live in Mass, and I'm going to Arizona for awhile but then moving back to MA.

[Yastrzemski67]

"Plastically replicated"

[Rwingr9]

a good place to toss all that loose change from the little cubby in your car, of course not the actual place where the pilgrims landed and yes, it is a rock. pay homage

[dnaed]

been there saw it its really small

[wwwdotyourmomdotcom]

I live in Plymouth and work at the plantation and I must say, It's the dumbest landmark EVER! IT'S A FUCKING ROCK PEOPLE! Come the fuck on, go to like Lexington or Concord, much cooler, and much not a rock-er.

[teddybrady1]

[Kimmx10]

[Fig1918]

yeah, well it's a rock. I can't imagine what peoples expectations are supposed to be.

[824scso]

Native Americans should have had better boarder security.

[jhatchjr11466]

Thank You to who videotaped this for including Brewster Gardens at the beginning.

Lots of people do not realize that Brewster Gardens was completely renovated.I for one should know ,because I helped do the landscaping for some of it. I am pleased that people can now enjoy it by taking a walk through it.Lots of tourists do not realize how much Time/Tax Funds/work went into restoring Brewster Gardens.Please enjoy Brewster Gardens but please respect it by not littering .Thanking all that helped.

[gblueslover1]
