  • I'm planning a road trip for mt 25th birthday to rent a ford minivan and drive the 1191 miles from Jefferson Park, Orlando, Florida to Agloe with a few Nerdfighter friends :) And, as Margo herself once said, the fun is more in the planning than the doing :)

  • Im currently reading paper towns for school and I thought about this video and came back to watch it. haha

  • My friend and I are going there on the 18th of July in a couple of weeks and the google map link you put up is definitely going to help. I live in up-up state New York (Western NY, whatever haha) and we're going to leave a copy of Paper Towns there for other nerdfighters to sign when they visit. Thanks for the help!!!

  • @cuppajoe17 That sounds SO GREAT!! Here's a tip: when you go, there will be a bridge over the stream behind the building. I would suggest leaving the the book in a metal box, or at least wrapped very, very well in tinfoil inside a shoe box, and burying the whole thing under that bridge. Then it's technically on public land and there's no chance the owners of the general store will dig it up or throw it out or anything.

    Safe travels and DFTBA! :)

  • @ObviouslyBenHughes I will take that suggestion! And make a counter video to yours and leave it in the video replies when i get back from my trip! :D Hopefully word will eventually get out to other nerdfighters who visit Agloe!

    Best wishes and DFTBA

  • @cuppajoe17 We're going tomorrow! Where should we look for the book? Hurricane Irene just came through and 206 was blocked off for flooding 2 days ago. Hopefully we'll still be able to find it and everything will be ok. Will try to take pictures if we can get through.

    - Best Wishes!!

  • I am so going there. Next summer once I have my license. Oh my God, I'm so excited! It's only two and a half hours away from where I live :D

  • Wow! I'm so terbs jelly! I must go too!

  • Omg! ThIs video iS so awEsoMe.. (notice the random capital letters just like margo) hehe nerdfighters!

  • OMG! Thank you so much for the map! I've been looking for 8 hours! ... not... not on foot, but on the internet.

  • Loved the book, nothing like I imagined it, the non exsitant town seemed so real in the book. Haha, Thanks!

  • Paper Towns is my favorite book of John Green's :D To see the actual place..oh my goodness<3

  • 0 dislikes and the vlogbrothers posted on this video HELL YEAH!

  • GREEN DAY POSTER!?!?!

  • wow.. I just finished the book... and it's awsome to see this!!! i imagened it differently but it's still so cool.

  • Well done, Ben! Loved Paper Towns. I read it during a film shoot I was on almost 2 years ago...

  • AWESOME!

    and In the Spirit of things, Random capitalization!

    he first Bit where you're Talking, you're talking Exactly like john does in his Vlogs :D

  • That is seriously so cool. Soooo incredibly jealous right now =D

  • That definitely decreased the suck in my world. Well, 3 minutes and 36 seconds of it, anyway. Awesome video!

  • very nice :)

  • i love john's books! D: i have all of them and went to his recent book signing in DC for Will Grayson Will Grayson {i gave him the bigger willy plush that is now visible in the background of his videos - i feel so special x3 } my favorite is between an abundance of katherines and paper towns <3 both were amazing! nerdfighters FTW

  • He posted this on his twitter :D well done!

  • ever since I read paper towns [admittedly only a few months ago but still] I've wanted to go there! and bury a copy of paper towns [in a way to mimic the book ] but in a plastic box so it survives all time-capsule like for nerdfighters of the future.

    problem is, it's gonna be quite a while before I can go there, since I'm in england and only 16 [I don't think the parents would be willing to take me]

    but please, anyone else do it for me! that'd be cool :)

  • I just happened to buy Paper Towns a few hours before I came across this video. Now I'm sure I will picture this building while I'm reading. ;P

  • This is such a cool birthday present for John and for Nerdfighteria. Thanks Ben!

  • I love the fact there is a Green Day poster behind you on John GREEN birthDAY

  • I admire how fast you can talk.

  • awesome. If i were you i would have yelled, "MARGOOOOOO!! Are you there?!" haha

    you should have played Margo, Polo. epic. :P

  • That's on my list of places to go. It's also probably one of the more reasonable ones.

  • I half expected a hobo to pop out of one of the boxes....haha :/

  • john tweeted this, so i clicked and saw your username, which seemed kind of familiar, then i realized it was from the times you've been mentioned in julia's fb statuses. rather random, i'd say, but interesting nonetheless. on an ironically unrelated matter, i need to read paper towns sometime.

  • i <3 green day

  • I thoroughly appreciate you.

    I want to road trip there.

    Now.

  • @Kathrillah I want to go there to! Road trip!

    Btw, did you find the resting place of margos journal? lol.

  • Holy crap so freaking cool.

  • Wow, Ben, this is so awesome. This is AMAZING. Really, really cool. Wow. Wow. Thank you. -John

  • @vlogbrothers John-you should visit Roscoe and Agloe sometime! Before I had read your book, I had been to Roscoe dozens of times (great diner), but Agloe is really surreal.
