Colorado City, Arizona, the alleged home of at least three polygamist mormon sects, is now a tourist destination. For those of you who've always wondered about life as a polygamist, you're in luck. As of tomorrow, you can now sign up for a four hour tour of the city called, no joke, "The Polygamy Experience". For the bargain price of $69.95 per adult ($10 off for kids under 11, and a 20% discount for groups of 20 or more), you can:
"Experience a day in the FLDS* life with former FLDS members who were born and raised in the Creek. Stories of growing up in this unique religion, a picnic set in the beautiful Vermillion Cliffs of southern Utah and northern Arizona, and intimate views of markets, parks and cemeteries, frame the previously closed community with detail and respect."
If you're curious, here's more about polygamy and mormon fundamentalism. It makes for an awesome wikipedia adventure.
* Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints
