I've heard claims that this is the most visited attraction in America, and Forbes Traveler confirms Linky it.

So, who here at ATOT has been there, and what were your thoughts on it? I have, because I live in Minnesota, so it doesn't particularly count.

Lets hear it!

Only if I was stuck in MN with nothing else to do. So many other attractions that I'd rather visit.

Been there once, but only because we were visiting the area anyway.

What else is there to do around there. I'm visiting Wisconsin by way of MN. Right over the border (45 min from mall).

Anything I should do while I'm up here?

I've been to the MOA at least twice and I live near WDW in Orlando. Your statements above are ridiculous ... the MOA being the most visited attraction in the USA. It's a #$#%^ mall. Anyone who visits the MOA as an "attraction" needs to get a life.

I hate malls BECAUSE they're huge and full of hordes of idiots. This would just be worse.

It's really not all that special. It's just got multiples of the same stores, although the middle atrium area with the park is sorta cool.

The word "mall" is in its name. Don't actually know anything about the place, but that fact alone makes me want to steer clear.

Been there when I lived in MN for a year.
I don't remember much other that I ate at Hooters.

Yes, I was there for work and stayed really close. I didn't even know that's where it was, I thought it was in Indiana or some place. It looks like a regular mall, but four times bigger. The main attraction is the park inside. I bought a $40 ticket, and rode all the rollers coasters. There was no line, I was going from one to another. There were only 3 worth riding, so I rode them multiple times. Last time I ran out of money on my ticket, but the guy let me through anyways.

Ridic. Fisherman's Wharf in SF? I still don't get it. I've been there twice. Once as a kid, once as a college student where I was like "Wow this is retarded. I'm not paying $8 for clam chowder." I still don't understand why people go there.

I stopped by while passing through on a business trip. The Vikings had their cheerleader tryouts so we stuck around to watch it. It was definitely entertaining. I bought a disposable camera but the pictures came out really bad.

It used to be cool when it first open and there were lots of unique shops. Gradually the cool shops were replaced with big chain clothing stores. Last time I was there they had multiple GAP stores, American Eagle stores, etc.

I live 20 minutes away so I guess I can't be counted.

Oh yeah they changed Camp Snoopy to be Nickelodeon land or something which is terrible. Peanuts ftw

Been there, more then once. Nothing exciting to do, but you can go there if you like shopping.
