I live in Worcester and often commute to places like Springfield/Agawam (Six flags and MGM), Mohegan Sun, Boston etc., I need at least a good 2-3 hours worth of entertainment plus a lunch/dinner to justify traveling that far. Honestly it’s hard for me to think of much in Worcester that would do that for me - Maybe a show at the Hanover theater or music at Mechanic’s Hall? A Woo Sox game (during the season obviously)? I also love the Free Play Arcade bar and could probably see myself driving 80 minutes to go there.

You know, sometimes I actually think locals are not the best people to ask about this kind of stuff. Locals are usually just living their lives and often pay no mind to the stuff around them, or if they are, they don't think it's too special.

With that being said, I agree with you about the drive. My rule of thumb has always been that I need to stay at a place at least the amount of time the round trip takes.
