Ripley's Times Square Odditorium to open June 21

Ripley's Believe It or Not! Times Square Odditorium will open next month with "24 shrunken heads, a six-legged cow and a 3,197-pound meteorite that crash-landed in China in 1529," according to the Daily News.

Ripley's will open June 21 at 234 W. 42nd St., map, the company said in a news release.

Its admission price -- $24.95 for adults and $18.95 for children -- won't be far off from what Madame Tussauds wax museum charges at the same address: $29 for adults, and $23 for children 4 through 12. Almost makes the Met and MoMA look cheap at $20.
