Tut and the Blockbusters: Love ‘em or Hate ‘em?
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
It all started in the late 1970s with the first national tour of artifacts from King Tutankhamen’s tomb. Since then, museums have staged huge, money-making exhibits of everything from motorcycles to Picasso.
This fall, Atlanta will get two biggies: the new “Tut” and an exhibit of the famous Chinese terracotta warriors. According to our latest story thousands of people have already signed up for tickets to these heavily-promoted blockbusters.
Are you eagerly awaiting the arrival of the terracotta army and the belongings of the boy king? Or would you prefer to avoid the crowds and keep the $32.50? (That’s the current price for Tut in Dallas.)
