For a big city I can't stand, how about Salt Lake City. Yes.

There is no city in the world with nearly as much consistent, quality powder within an hour of an international airport. SLC sucks I will give you that, but the skiing alone should keep it off the list.

and someone from albuquerque probably shouldn't be posting in this thread :-P

New Haven has the best pizza in the U.S. and must be moved up the list because of this fact.

[/ QUOTE ]

OK Ive heard this before, and Ive been to New Haven many times, and I have never had a memorable pizza there. Perhaps I havent been to the right pizza joints. Where should I go next time Im there?

I did see a Pizza guy get knocked off his bike then robbed there, so maybe your theory has some merit.

[/ QUOTE ]

go to modern, sally's or pepe's, any of the 3 will get you hooked on new haven pizza

KC is a pretty crime-ridden, run-down city.

Philadelphia, PA. One of my college buddies grew up there and I ended up partying there probably 15 times, and spent another couple weeks with his family. The down is dirty as all hell and really smells, the people are lazy, the girls are gross, and the accent they sport became like nails on the chalkboard after about 2 visits.

Yet more points for Philly.

- dirty, overpriced, yet bankrupt public transportation
- stench in the streets
- 5% wage tax
- corrupt government
- an illiterate mayor
- grossly over-powerful unions
- lazy-ass entitlement work ethic of the people (see previous point)
- the Chinese food in its China town sucks
- inarguably the most obnoxious sports fans in the country (the battery incident was my favorite)

They have one of the best business schools in the country, but 95% of Wharton graduates leave Philly immediately upon graduation. They spend craploads of tax dollars trying to figure out why.

The cheesesteaks are just as good in the suburbs.

Salt Lake city, Utah.

(besides the skiing)

its a morman cult city where everything closes at 1:00 on weekends. the whole town is obsessively clean like a hospital.

the streets are not named but numbered (street2300)

its a pure grid.

mormons will take you by the arm to try to drag you to their church. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

Lived in both (Manhattan 4 years, LA about 3 years now). I'd have to agree. Though I would take off some of the ">" due to NYC possibly getting blown up by terrorists, unlikely event in LA.

Oh yeah, I forgot about Philly's perpetual, justly-deserved, yet consistently-denied inferiority complex.

Just about every mayor, from Wilson Goode to John Street, has run a goddamned clinic on how to [censored] up a city.
