What is the strangest place you have ever been? (4 Viewers)

A pedophiles house when I was 11. Lulu Street Las Vegas Nevada.
Was riding my bike, naive to the world and it’s dangers.....seemingly nice middle aged guy stops me to talk to me while I’m riding my bike. Offers me some popcorn and chocolate (I know I was a moron, free candy van and all) well I was hungry and love chocolate. I go inside and he talks me into watching a movie...during the movie he gets a blanket and puts it over me, then gradually tries to fondle me. That’s when it finally clicked to me that something was wrong with this guy and I jetted back home. Cops were at my house when I got back as I’d been gone longer than my parents thought I should be.
Probably one of the strangest encounters I’ve ever had. And I’ve had quite a few dandies in my wild life.

The bolded part made me lol at the office. People are looking over at me like "what are you laughing at over there"

giving this a 'like' might give people the wrong idea
 
OKAY YOU WIN
Not really, all of mine are situational.

To me the weirdness seems like the Gaza Strip would take the cake. At least that is the impression I got from the Zohan. Havent been.
 
No. It's just the strangest place I've ever been. Maybe the rooster fights in Oklahoma are a close second. Very bizarre experience.

Growing up, we had champion roosters. We would go to palenques (that's the arena where the cockfights happen). Big money gambled there. My dad made a lot of money. He kept the roosters in Cuba, and would fly them over when it was time.
 
... and speaking of Cuba, I guess this may not sound strange, but 16 year old me thought it was. First time I went to Cuba, in 1981. I found the place surreal. It looked like time stood still in 1953: the buildings, the cars, the clothing... going to the Tropicana felt like being in a gangster movie set.

Probably the most surreal part, was me going to a local nightclub. away from the tourist spots. They were playing mambo, and just about everyone was dancing, and there were some fantastic dancers there, but everyone was so serious. Seemed like no one was talking to each other, just moving to the music, not enjoying it.
 
When I was 13 and moved to Florida, I recall the strangest sensation at the grocery store when I realized they didn't have liquor.

Other than that, I once went to a party in ATL where they had Falcons fans, but that was more gross than weird.

It's sad ... I didn't like it. Don't like watching humans force animals to fight. If it happens in nature, it's fine...circle of life....but don't like it being forced.
