Salem Lizzie Borden museum shuts doors.


SALEM, Mass. – A Lizzie Borden museum in Salem that sparked a lawsuit and questions over its location has closed after about 2 1/2 years in business.
Owner Leonard Pickel tells The Salem News that his 40 Whacks Museum faced steep rent and high utility costs at a time of year when tourist traffic slows. He says he was never able to attract key school groups.

So the lesson is...when you open your Larry Flynt Shooting Museum, make sure that you do it in Lawrenceville, Georgia.
