    So does Boise.
    What the hell do you need besides bars and restaurants? A red light district?
    If you want to be a BADGER, just come along with me

    BRING BACK PAT RICHTER!!!


    At his graduation ceremony from the U of Minnesota, my cousin got a keychain. When asked what UW gave her for graduation, my sister said, "A degree from a University that matters."

    Canned music is a pathetic waste of your time.

      Pfffffffffffffffft. That wouldn't hurt!

      Seriously, though. It's not hard to figure out what separates the world-class cities from the Boise, Idahos and Detroit, Michigans of the world. Having a few pool halls, an Applebees, a Ponderosa, a few diners, and a bunch of bars doesn't make it a good destination for someone from out of town. Hell, you can get that in Woonsocket, RI but I don't see people jumping on a plane to PVD to head over there.

      Also, while we're on the topic, add casinos to that list of things just about every godforesaken place has that people (seemingly midwesterners for whatever reason in this case) want to use as an excuse to visit a wretched town...

      The fact that you BC fans revel in the superiority of your team in an admittedly weak league leads me to believe you will be more sorely disappointed when the end comes than we will.

            If you can't have fun in New Orleans without visiting a casino, you're already dead.

            Good point about Detroit though. Dead end town, no money, 50% unemployment rate....but slap a casino in there! That ought to work.
