what is so great about Great Falls?

NOTE: it just came to my attention that the story i linked to is about five years old. but whatever, Great Falls still stinks. viva la Billings!

this is going to get me into trouble with Sara, Sarah and my other Great Falls readers but seriously, what the heck is wrong with that city?


it isn't enough that Great Falls gave us Ryan Leaf and the weather is always miserable whenever i'm there (i once had to wear two pairs of socks during an August football game) but there are now apparently a bunch of psychos driving around. you can't even go to a BBQ in Great Falls without something bad happening.

oh k, that last joke was in poor taste. but i have a long-standing feud with that city and a lot of my hatred is probably rooted in the fact that Great Falls teams owned me during high school. do you know what sucks more than losing? losing to a team from Great Falls.

i don't know why i am picking on Great Falls. Montana is the state that gave the world the Freeman (classy bunch), the Unabomber (classy guy) and Butte (classy locale). hell, even my hometown is a notable eyesore (go refineries and that geological beauty called the Rims).

but, man, Great Falls...

p.s. Sarah and Sara are still cool. please ladies, don't hate me.

R. Kelly, play us out.

Hey now, Montana didn't GIVE the world the Unabomber; we just hid him after he committed his namesake crimes. But yeah, the Freemen and Butte... And Great Falls does blow. Seriously, it's windy there ALL THE TIME.

You forgot to mention that Great Falls is home to the number 2 bar in the world acording to GQ Magazine (The Sip N Dip and Piano Pat), and we were featured on MTVs True Life "I live in the projects" episode. Finally, we can't forget that according to Snaple caps, it is the windiest city in the United States!

The things I love about Great Falls: Taco Treat and Howards Pizza!

I don't hate you... I don't particularly like Great Falls either, I will not be sad when my parents decide to make Arizona their year round home.

However, I do have to say that Butte is a much uglier city.
