OT 4 American Cities

SlyPokerDog · May 9, 2024

Was talking with Mrs SPD and somehow we ended up here...

Suppose you were talking with someone who had never visited the USA and wanted your recommendation of 4 cities.

Which cities would you pick for them to visit to give them the best overview of our country?

(I'll share my picks later in the thread.)

Tough question. I can't really say a city unless I've been there because otherwise I'm just guessing. But out of cities I have been - Seattle, Boston, Vegas and Kansas City.

New Orleans

Need to think about the other 3.

Washington DC
Reno/Lake Tahoe
Santa Barbara/Solvang CA

4 is not enough to cover the country..
Portland
San Diego
New Orleans
Washington DC
New York City
Chicago
Las Vegas
7 covers a lot...could easily go 8 and add Savanah Georgia or Philly or maybe Boston

I picked Kansas City not because I liked it, just wanted that person to see how much the middle of the USA sucks.

San Francisco
New York
Boston
Tough call between Seattle and New Orleans

ehizzy3 · May 9, 2024

New York City

SlyPokerDog · May 9, 2024

New York City
New Orleans
Las Vegas
Los Angeles

I think those would give you a great representation of America!

Bad dog! No PNW means they miss out on the best part of the USA.

The PNW was the best place in the world,,, untill
The weird people moved in, and completely ruined it.

That's the challenge. You have to pick 4.

They can cheat and go to Vancouver BC and Victoria, still the PNW, not the US.

Best as in most accurate? Or best as in most positive?

Best according to your reasons and opinions. If someone asked you, which four would you recommend?

e_blazer · May 10, 2024

Keizer, Roseburg, Grants Pass, & Medford.

I rate cities by availability of In-N-Out Burgers and proximity to me.

UncleCliffy'sDaddy · May 10, 2024

Buffalo NY
Cleveland OH
New Orleans
Quartzite AZ

The first two because they are so incredibly friendly, and there is so very much to see and do, in and around each area. Plus Buffalo has beef on weck (look it up).

New Orleans because there is nothing like it anywhere else in the U.S. A grubbier and more lurid version of Pirates of the Caribbean.

Quartzite because I recently spent one of the most absolutely enjoyable afternoons of my entire life there at Beer Belly's Adult Day Care. I cannot recommend it enough......retirement as it is supposed to be.

I was about to ask you about that. KC is a DUMP!

THE HCP · May 10, 2024

And Vegas……gross!

THE HCP · May 10, 2024

And NOLA……maybe a few different pockets, but the rest smells like hot urine and throw up with used condoms everywhere.
