We’ve already seen the world’s worst zoo , however, the truth is there's no “good” zoo in the world.

A gorilla was shot and killed after escaping from an “award-winning” exhibit at the Dallas Zoo.

7.San Diego Zoo & Lowry Park Zoo

In 2003, the San Diego Zoo and Tampa’s Lowry Park Zoo imported 11 captured African elephants from Swaziland.

Elephants are good for ticket sales, and even the biggest zoos steal them from the wild.

6.Dickerson Park Zoo

From 2006 to 2009, Missouri’s Dickerson Park Zoo handed over “surplus” giraffes, zebras, kangaroos, wallabies, and exotic antelopes to questionable entities.

Sports cars should be sexy and make people go OOOH!

But this is not a list about those cars, this is a list of sports cars that make people go “ugh” and shake their head. The reality is that each of these cars was a big miss and due to the output engineers were probably relieved of their jobs.

10. Mitsuoka Himiko

If you are going to spend good money on a sports car it’s a good idea to not go with a name known for knocking off famous British models. Still, for whatever reason this vehicle doesn’t look original, it gives the feeling that you have seen it somewhere else.

9. Salica GT

The ultimate sin for the production of any sports car is to make it look cheap. Unfortunately that’s what happened with the Salica GT. Depending on the angle you are viewing your thoughts may stream from interesting to terrible to wondering if the car was just in a major accident.

8. Studebaker Avanti

Maybe looking cheap isn’t the worst characteristic a sports car can have, maybe it’s being boring. If so, the Avanti may be the most boring looking sports car of all time.

7. Plymouth Prowler

This is another over compensation sports car with lots of angles, too many angles, and what appears to be a plastic bumper.

6. GDT Speedster

The makers of the GDT Speedster definitely wanted to make this vehicle look like a cartoon, right? Look at that grille, it’s smiling at you. This particular vehicle can get up to 170 mph so it’s fast despite being shaped like a shoe box.

5. X Works Automotive X1

There is a lot going on when you look at the body, grilles and lights. It looks like a jigsaw puzzle that was forced together, the pieces not fitting well. There’s also the gray color, nothing screams boring more than gray.

4. Blast Automotive Blast

The “boxy” look combines with, what is that, an incline? Somewhere in the design of this car the balance of sleek and cool got lost and craziness was injected.

3. DeLorean DMC-12

If this is what we can expect the future to look like, maybe we should reconsider quitting our bad habits. The DeLorean DMC-12 has stainless-steel panels and are not painted when they leave the factory. And the cubed lights do not look like the future, they look like the past.

2. Mosler Raptor

When I was young my favorite thing in the world was to draw cars. Little did I know at the time I was drawing what would become the prototype for the Mosler Raptor. Instead of a car it's designed to be a submarine and that’s not good for anyone.

1. IFR Automotive Aspid

Somewhere, someone messed up with this design and it’s not in just one spot. Start with the exposed wheel rods, but the overall body looks like something that comes with a set of Play-Doh.

The average price of a wedding dress today is $1,211.

But that doesn’t mean there aren’t a whole bunch that cost a whole lot more.

Here are the top 10 most expensive wedding dresses, ranging from $20,000,  all the way up to $1.5 million.

10. Kim Kardashian ’s Givenchy Dress – $400,000

For Kim Kardashian’s third wedding to Kanye West, she wore a $400,000 Givenchy dress designed by Riccardo Tisci.

The dress was given a glimpse on her reality show, Keeping Up With The Kardashians and it was same price as Princess Kate’s dress.

The elegant lace dress had a sheer back and long train.

It was certainly not what anyone would expect, but then again, when does Kim Kardashian not surprise us?

9. Peacock Dress By Vera Wang – $1.5 million

This is truly the most unique wedding dress ever made.

Designed by Vera Wang, it is made of peacock feathers, for the bride who really wants to stand out and go the non-traditional route.

Designed in 2009, it’s made of 2009 male peacock feathers  to commemorate the year it was made.

Featuring a very long, round train, it’s rumored that Jennifer Lopez was supposed to wear it to her wedding to Ben Affleck, but those nuptials never happened.

8. Victoria Beckham ’s Vera Wang Dress – $100,000

When she wed David Beckham, way back in 1999, Victoria “Posh Spice” Adams wore a Vera Wang gown, which reportedly cost $100,000.

Victoria loved her rather timeless, structured ball-gown wedding dress so much, she still has it in her closet, hoping that one day, her daughter Harper will want to wear it.

It’s a known fact that Mrs. Beckham gives most of her clothing away to be auctioned off to charity, but hasn’t had the the heart to sell off her beloved and very expensive Vera Wang gown.

7. Chelsea Clinton’s Vera Wang Dress – $32,000

Former first daughter, Chelsea Clinton was married to Marc Mezinsky, in 2010, in a lavish $3 million ceremony.

Her dress, which was designed by Vera Wang, is rumored to have cost approximately $32k. Luckily, the United States government wasn’t paying for it.

6. Zim Zolciak’s Baracci Gown – $58,000

5.  Jessica Biel’s Giambattista Valli Dress – $100,000+

Jessica Biel’s beautiful pink dress for her wedding to Justin Timberlake, was stunning both in looks and in price.

The exact dollar amount has not been revealed, but it’s rumored to have cost Mrs. Timberlake upwards of six-figures.

In 2013, Biel discussed the dress in an interview with Elle magazine,

“I wanted the dress to be very romantic and feminine and a shape that I very rarely wear.

I have never been crazy about all-white wedding dresses, for me at least."

4. Princess Diana’s Dress – $150,000

Princess Diana wore a legendary wedding dress for her 1981 wedding to Prince Charles.

Designed by David and Elizabeth Emanuel, within hours of the wedding, tons of other designers were ordered to copy the dress so every bride in England and throughout the world could feel like Diana on their big day too.

The dress was made of silk taffeta and antique lace embellished with over 1,000 pearls and sequins.

3. Madonna ’s Stella McCartney Dress – $80,000

2. Nicole Richie’s Marchesa Dress – $20,000

This dress Nicole Richie wore for her 2010 wedding to rock star Joel Madden, was designed by Marchesa.

But the dress pictured above was only one of three she wore to her wedding by the same designer.

Way over the top, the bottom of the dress alone was made of more that 100 yards of silk organza tulle, shaped into beautiful petals.

1. Amal Alamuddin’s Oscar De La Renta Gown – $380,000

For her wedding to George Clooney , Amal Alamuddin wore a stunning Oscar De La Renta gown.

So why that designer in particular? Alamuddin told Vogue,

“George and I wanted a wedding that was romantic and elegant, and I can’t imagine anyone more able than Oscar to capture this mood in a dress.

Meeting him made the design process all the more magical, as he is so warm and such a gentleman.”

This off-the shoulder dress featured 14 yards of Chantilly lace appliqués, which were embellished by hand with beading and embroidery.

What a dreaming wedding dress.

With the announcement that bowling would rolls out new scoring system , it seems fitting to take a look at the list of events and see which other sports might be worthy of inclusion - and which ones would have to go.

10. Softball

There really is no understandable reason why the IOC removed softball from the Olympics.

9. Golf Pentathlon

With golf finally being included in the Olympics in 2016, the opportunity for a second golf event is too easy for the IOC to ignore.

8. Beach Soccer

Beach soccer is not only a growing sport around the world, but it's fun to watch as well.

7. Futsal

Soccer is the most popular sport in the world, and futsal is ostensibly indoor soccer played on a hard court with five players on a side.

6. Pankration

Pankration was an ancient Greek event held at some of the first Olympic Games. The fighting discipline combined elements of boxing and wrestling with what was the foundation for today's modern mixed martial arts.

5. Bowling

Bowling was a demonstration sport at the 1988 Olympics in Seoul, Korea. Twenty nations competed in the event, and then the IOC never included it again.

4. Cricket

Cricket was held at the 1900 Summer Olympics in Paris, France. Now cricket is one of the most popular sports in the world, with countries all around the planet fielding competitive teams.

3. Squash

It truly makes little sense why squash or racquetball is not included in the Olympic Games.

2. Surfing

It seems somewhat inexplicable that surfing is not a part of the Olympics. With windsurfing being a part of the games, it stands to reason that actual basic surfing get a chance too.

1. Skateboarding

Unlike the Winter Olympics, there are not a lot of sports at the Summer Games that will get the younger crowd to tune in. The IOC should see Shaun White's celebrity and crossover appeal as a way to bridge the gap between fans of the Summer and Winter Games.
