PUNCH
THE
ARCH

DID YOU KNOW?
You can punch the St. Louis Arch!

WHY WOULD I DO THAT?
If you do not punch the Arch the first time you see it, you will immediately become cursed by the Spirit of Saint Louis (a plane).
We're not trying to damage it, these are love taps. Like knocking on wood.

IS THIS NEW?
We should all start suggesting that this has been a beloved tradition the whole time.
When visitors ask about what they should do while in STL, mention City Museum and the Aquarium or whatever, but also explain that only tourists go up to the top. Real ones punch the arch.
