It broke up our trip home from Louisville, KY. Three kids enjoyed the zoo, as did my husband and I. I know mobile is the way to go, but not everything needs to be. Maybe having paper ones upon request and maybe laminated to save from having to make new so often. It's hard to see them on your phone in the sun, and the kids love to help navigate.

I don't like how you can only get mobile maps. Took around 2 hours and got through the entire zoo. Overall, a nice little 10 minute stop if you are in Collinsville, IL. Wonder how the local residents would feel if their faucets spewed out catsup one day instead of water. Technically called Brooks Catsup Bottle Water Tower, it is a water tower painted to look like a catsup bottle. Not sure how to describe it besides it looking like a cake with graphics on it. At the base, there is a cake sculpture thing. But there is a decent amount of room to park, get out, take some photos and all that. It’s next to what seems to be an abandoned warehouse of sorts. It’s randomly off to the side of the road, around a bend. The catsup bottle is kind of in a weird location. So of course, we had to stop and check it out. While visiting a friend in Edwardsville, another friend and I decided to make a trip to Dizzy Dugout and while kind of driving around town, we saw this giant Catsup bottle in the air. So it’s only fitting that we have a rather large (world’s largest, one would say) catsup/ketchup bottle in America. There is a good chance that they will say catsup… or ketchup… or cheese… or horseradish. Ask your friend’s what America’s favorite condiment is…and guess what they’ll say.
