And the line between the Smithsonian and Planet Hollywood continues to blur ...
Not really, the Smithsonian had Archie's Chair, Ruby Slippers and Fronzie's jacket long before Planet Hollywood opened. In fact I was just their last month. Not my favorite of the Smithsonian Museums but it is basically the Americana Museum. I love Air & Space and Natural History the best.
I'm sure you saw the original Star-Spangled Banner, WE?

The statue of Washington as a Roman statesman was also interestingly weird.
