Rob E Dangerously 0 Report post Posted November 15, 2004 here's a few I want to mention Rogers, AR: there's family links there Sugar Creek, MO: The speed limit in the town is 25mph everywhere because the town has too many damn steep hills. Also, due to Amoco, some of the town is doomed to some sort of medical problem. Buckner, MO: Small town, virtually nothing there, and the speed limit on US 24 in that town is 35mph, while it's 65mph on the highway to the east and west of the town. Napoleon, MO: the business district in this town is like 3 buildings Extra points go to other speed traps. As well as towns with bizarre landmarks. Any small towns you want to mention?

Guest Agent of Oblivion Report post Posted November 15, 2004 Surprise, AZ-The worst place I ever saw. Oatman, AZ-Burros in the streets. One of my earliest childhood memories is a vacation out west where we went past Mt. Sodona in AZ. There's this sequence in my mind of this burro sticking its nose in a car since everyone probably feeds the damn things, and the hispanic guy behind the wheel yelling at it in spanish and swatting it with his hat.

haws bah gawd 0 Report post Posted November 15, 2004 Burnettown, SC - consists of townhall with a trailer park and playground behind it. Bath, SC - maybe 4 miles of road with houses on either side. Has a movie store called "Video Review" with the best selection of direct-to-video releases you could ever hope to find. They have a respectable selection of porn as well. Gloverville, SC - trailer park capital of the southern states. I always get a laugh out of people who cram a family of 8 into the world's smallest trailer, but drive a $30,000+ car.

The Czech Republic 0 Report post Posted November 15, 2004 Pell Lake, WI: most roads aren't paved. The lake itself is gross and cannot be swum in because of high levels of fungus and such. There are lots of bars, disproportionate to the population of the unincorporated city itself. There's a swamp with an American flag coming out of the middle.

Guest CronoT Report post Posted November 15, 2004 Valentine, TX- It's only one street long, and the street is about a block and a half long. There's a building in the center of the town that houses the General Store, Grocery Store, Sheriff's Office, City Hall, and the Post Office. If you drive through it at 60-65 mph and blink, you'll miss it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Metal Maniac 0 Report post Posted November 16, 2004 I can't remember the name of the town, but we once drove through a place somehwere in the states that actually had a "Population: 10" sign. Dead serious. And Chezch: Save yourself some cash so you can get a house on one of the private German roads. Really nice houses, by the water, with little/no people around. That's my plan.

Eclipse 0 Report post Posted November 16, 2004 I haven't seen many small towns in my life. Well, I have gone to Puerto Rico, to visit family. But, the town most of my dad's side of the family lives in are STEEP hills, and then straight roads. The town is very sectional, with about ONE LONG STREET, that turns into a hill. Along that street are plenty of house, then, after a LONG straight road, you will see the business district, which is pretty big. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Czech Republic 0 Report post Posted November 16, 2004 Rosemont, IL: Basically, Rosemont is the intersection of Touhy Ave. and Mannheim Rd. in Des Plaines (say it like it looks) near O'Hare. It consists of nothing more than the Allstate Arena, where WWE chooses to run its shows, and a few hotels, restaurants, and convention centers. I'm not sure people actually live in Rosemont, but the tiny city gets crazy revenue from all the businesses in its two square miles or whatever, which it puts into various things bearing the name of its mayor for life, Donald Stephens, a sort of Mayor Daley poser. They're trying to build a casino near O'Hare, but Illinoisavich is blocking it. It has an ornately painted water tower. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Agent of Oblivion Report post Posted November 16, 2004 Lagro, IN is a dead hillbilly factory town that went under when the old treacherous US 24 was rebuilt into something suitable for interstate travel, and moved a few miles away. It has a gas station, a liquor store, and a greasy spoon only open for breakfast and lunch that has tenderloins and onion rings worthy of my driving 40 minutes round trip to eat them sometimes. Almost every able-bodied male in the town works at the insulation factory down the road. It sits right on top of train tracks, a river, and the old abandoned Erie Canal. It's a desolate podunk hellhole in the middle of nowhere. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Alro 0 Report post Posted November 16, 2004 Millwood, KY: More of a community than a town. It is close to where I'm from and for 21 years that I can remember, its claim to fame was a Wood Preserve Plant. Then two years ago they got a chiropractor's office and a gas station/Hometown Pizza. Now they have some type of Honky Tonk bar that isn't actually a bar because it is located in a dry county. Ricky Van Shelton (who was evidently popular at some point. I think I remember hearing his name years and years ago) was playing there Friday night when I was visiting my hometown. Millwood is moving up in the world.

Guest ShootingStylesPress Report post Posted November 16, 2004 Debert, Nova Scotia. It's one road, with house on either side. That's it. The only thing there is a Tim Horton's, and it's a 20 minute drive to anywhere with fast-food. The crap towns you visit for indy-wrestling. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
2GOLD 0 Report post Posted November 16, 2004 Gumboro, DE: The town is four miles long but about 16 miles wide. And it has it's on fire department and a diner that looks like the backporch of someone's house. Really small and really sad. Georgetown, DE: Currently wrapped up in the Disney trial and holds many of the courts of Delaware. If the WWE gets sued for labor or business practices, could end up getting sent here. Other than court houses and a Wal-Mart...nothing. The town is dead. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
