10 Places Where The Most Famous Memes Were Made

Some memes revolve around some very real places. Though many memes seem like they come from mythical origins, they're often so real and tangible that we could visit them ourselves. In fact, you really can visit most of the locations on this list, which are easily accessible to the public and sometimes even have addresses available. Some are even roadside attractions. Others are kept more under wraps, and sometimes staunchly defended by an angry homeowner. But each one of these locations is truly unique and influential in its own way.

If you're ever in one of these areas and want to see a piece of meme history, we suggest you stop by one of these places, as long as it's not occupied by the Breaking Bad house owner. But even if you never manage to visit these locations, we've compiled some fun facts about them to show you why they became so unexpectedly influential. Here are ten of the most memorable meme locations out there.
