When I was a kid, I had a relative with a big booth at the NY State Fair, so we hung out at the fair a lot, and explored every inch of it.
One of the most fascinating things for me was the State Troopers' display of drugs. They were all lined up on a board, behind glass, labeled so I could identify them accurately. There was even a joint, and I wondered if it was real. I would check it out often, and every year I'd come back to examine it.
As an adult, I realized that it had the exact opposite effect it was supposed to have. It only made the drugs look more enticing.
