The King of Pop Returns to Santa Barbara?

Could Michael Jackson’s final resting place eventually be Neverland Ranch? That’s what news websites the world over are claiming, with the additional idea that Neverland would become a sort of Graceland for the deceased pop star with his grave as the major attraction.

Lucky Los Olivos. With its nice two-lane road and classy wine country pedigree, I’m sure this is just what our charming neighbor to the north wants. And let’s be perfectly honest: This plan is pretty creepy. Neverland Ranch is the place, after all, that Jackson was forced to give up because of financial ruin/awkwardness from being accused of child molestation. Good times.

So, crazed fans, would you make the trek out to Neverland Ranch to pay homage to the King of Pop if it turns into a tourist attraction? Any chance that the Ferris wheel, petting zoo or roller coaster will be part of a Jackson memorial? And, perhaps, most importantly, where will the HIStory statue  go?
