The Mojave Desert Phone Booth
The sad, cautionary tale of a phone booth that became too popular for its own good. However, I have heard of another...
-
from the same site - OOBI I am very inspired by this oobi thing, and may try this on my own. Only, I think it would be better to give the message to a friend heading in the right direction, with instructions to pass that to another person they know or trust (e.g. nice elderly couples on trains), and so forth, to an adventuresome end. There is a sociology project on these principles going on right now.

Ha! I traded Godfrey (and Wagner!) an autographed picture of Jason from Friday the 13th for a piece of the booth!! Best damn trade I ever made. Anyone wants a picture of it can email me.
-
That Nevada one looks far too gimmicky - surely it will never surpass the Mojave phone booth for completely unintentional cool?
-
Never trust anything that looks like a strawberry, yet is bigger then a kitten. And I agree, tracicle. These things have to grow, they can't be built.

These time-traveling comments are better than anything MeFi has to offer.
-
Oh, come on, that's ridiculous! (response to a comment wendell will make about six hours from now)
-
That last link looks like more like the ugliest phone booth, not the loneliest. It's not even a booth. It's more like the husk of a giant, dead ladybug on its side with a big old stick in it.
-
These time-traveling comments are better than anything MeFi has to offer. It's not a bug, it's a feature!
-
Looks like languagehat's time machine was borken.
-
That last booth was gleaming - who would polish that thing in the middle of nowhere?
-
They smashed it, you know. Park Service got sick of random partying bloggers descending on it all the time.
-
So that's where my TARDIS got to.

OK, got caught up in the phone booth saga and fell off the tour bus.
