Observe Minneapolis-St. Paul's newest (and perhaps most popular) tourist attraction: the airport bathroom where Larry Craig was allegedly caught broadcasting his gasping need for hot gay sex. This whole New York Times article is lovely from start to finish, beginning with the headline -- "Fateful Bathroom Draws Crowds of the Curious." Quotes from a surprising number of interested passerby and spectators are also excellent, wrapping up with a man who uses the bathroom to change the diaper on his 15-month-old daughter for "historic reasons." And of course, Flickr tourism at the site is already commonplace.
