32. A motel near the Fox Theater in St. Louis

And not a nice one, either... Heading to a concert at the Fox, my mom and I were surprised that it was cash only, which really should have been the first sign that this wasn't the kind of hotel we should be staying in. There was a gate leading to the rooms.

Needless to say, after the concert, we got home and pushed the table up against the door.
