first of all, anyone who has ever been to a corn maze knows that the fines for dystroying the maze are steep. they can and will get the police involved, so whatever genius decides to machete his way out is not going to be pleased with the outcome. in the past 10 years i can recall at least 2 news stories about idiots who made their own way out and got owned by management.
second, there is more than one maze there, and you're talking about literally miles of pathways. you're lucky to find a port-o-toilet or a water station. they make a new maze every year. i got lost in one for a couple hours a few years ago, and this year's maze was about 5 times more complex than the one i got stuck in.
i'm not going to argue about whether people from mass are stupid. we have more colleges than states 5 times our size and are in the top 5 for public education, by most criteria we are actually number one.
if you want to shit on massachusetts make fun of our awful drivers, our cunty attitudes, and that god-awful health care shit they passed here. and the fact that we willingly pay 9 bucks for a pack of smokes and triple tax everything.
