Tour #4

The Family Guy – On the Road to Rhode Island

Back by popular demand, this high-time tour is just what The Family Guy fans want - a raucous romp and rockin’ good time!

Based on Fox TV’s The Family Guy, highlights include a dozen or more sites in Pawtucket, Providence, Johnston and Cranston that are known (or suspected) to have inspired this Emmy nominated animated television series.

Among other things, we're having a Family Guy Day celebration lunch at Walt's Roast Beef - the one on Airport Road in Warwick. We'll be playing the Family Guy version of trivial pursuit and there'll be all kinds of other fun and games and special prizes.

Rhode Island native and creator of the show, Seth McFarlane, has received numerous civic and professional awards for this lightly veiled depiction of the people and places so well known in and around the Ocean State.

Highlights include:
  • Family Guy Trivial Pursuit Game and Prizes
  • Drunken Clam
  • Van Wickle Gates
  • Mr. Potato Head, Hasbro
  • Big Blue Bug
  • Tchotchkes
  • Tchotchkes
  • Narragansett Beer
  • Finance Way
  • Hurricane Plaques and Market Square
  • Walt's Roast Beef
  • Spooner Games
  • McCoy Stadium
  • City Hall
  • RISD Works
  • Providence Performing Arts Center
  • Souvenirs
