another question for the ages

[spatch]

I wonder what the ratio of goofy pictures of tourists pretending to hold up the Leaning Tower of Pisa to goofy pictures of tourists pretending to push the tower over might be.

This sounds like a job for...Flickr!

maybe.

There's always the Pisa Pushers (http://www.flickr.com/groups/pisapushers/pool/) pool. I'd say the ratio is at least three to one, based on this photo (http://www.flickr.com/photos/pizzabytheslice/19737092/in/pool-pisapushers/).

Man, those people are really BAD at that gag, at that.

That photo is way up there in my list of Best Photos Ever.

I can't believe there's a photo pool dedicated to pictures of people having pictures taken of them doing the goofy tourist thing to the tower.

It makes me want to try the gag with the clock tower in St. Mark's Square. "Whoops! Wrong Italian landmark!"

I'd say 4:1.

Holding up definitely has the lead. Much easier to pose for.

I do wonder how many tourists pose, looking like they're cupping David's balls, as my mother-in-law did.
