Most people would much rather relax in the cozy confines of their new apartment than do a stretch of hard time in a prison cell, although if we are going to be 100% honest here, almost everyone has fantasized about living life behind bars as a tough guy. There's a reason why Johnny Cash sold so many records - the outlaw mystique is an attractive one, and even the most

law-abiding citizen has surely at one point or another thrown caution to the wind and jay walked through the middle of town.

Still, as a tax-paying citizen that enjoys the security of your apartment complex and belongings, it is nice to know that the boys (and girls) in blue still maintain law and order on a daily basis. For those in the Akron area eager to learn more about the ins and outs of crime and punishment, a one-day sentence to the Akron Police Museum may be in order.

Smallish in scope, the Akron Police Museum is nevertheless an eye-opening affair; confiscated weapons, counterfeit money, narcotics paraphernalia and even a police-issue Harley Davidson motorcycle dating back to the 1960's can all be found on site. The keys to a prison cell from the 1800's mere yards from an array of vintage uniforms, badges and crime scene photos, and actual cops can usually be found nearby in case the youngsters in your group have any questions. Best of all, admission is free, meaning you won't have to scream highway robbery upon entering the premise. Book it, Dano...
