Description

Your round-trip ticket to the wildest, wackiest, most outrageous people, places,and things the Granite State has to offer. Whether you're a born-and-raised New Hampshirite, a recent transplant, or just passing through, New Hampshire Curiosities will have you laughing out loud as Eric Jones takes you on a rollicking tour of the strangest sides of the Granite State. Lament the passing of the state-sponsored Roadkill Auction, where the frozen carcasses of everything from bobcat to black bear were available to the highest bidder - until a rabies outbreak put an end to this time-honored tradition. Visit the Exeter UFO Festival - an annual event in the town that saw one of the most impressive UFO sightings on record, in September 1965 - and the 1804 grave of a soldier's amputated leg.
