The Week contest: Paper amphitheater
This week’s question: An Italian fraudster has been jailed for building a fake Roman amphitheater out of materials including fiberglass and papier mâché—and then charging tourists $45 to visit it. In seven words or fewer, come up with an advertising slogan that would encourage sightseers to keep visiting this admittedly bogus attraction.
