The Cockroach Hall of Fame Museum

The Cockroach Hall of Fame Museum was founded by an exterminator, Michael Bohdan. He had begun the exhibition in his shop at Plano, Texas. Bohdan innovative idea of dressing dead cockroaches as celebrities and historical figures made the place quiet famous. In the 1980s Bohdan had held a contest to find the biggest cockroach in Dallas, America. Later he was made the judge of a cockroach fashion contests which was a promotional stunt for an insecticide company. He even appeared in ‘The Tonight Show’. If you ever visit the ‘Cockroach Hall’ makes sure to catch the white-caped cockroach sitting by a piano, entitled “Liberoachi.”
