Fun fact 90% of the US financial system is run by that guy ^ ... and 1/9 of the Supreme court
Next time drive on I-70. You won't be able to distinguish between IL, IN, and most of OH..
Fun fact: HDT came up with this saying.

Flatland = flat asses. But I think crossfit has helped in the midwest over the last decade.

Nothing more western than the Canadian Tuxedo....
In 1951, at the height of his famed career, Bing Crosby visited Vancouver. He was known to love it here, having received a key to the city in the shape of its skyline from acting mayor George Miller in 1948. Crosby even staged a benefit recording of his radio show at the PNE Forum, raising over $26,000 for a new building at Main Street’s Sunset Community Centre.
But as much as the world gushed over the American star, not everyone recognized him. According to Levi Strauss & Co. historian Lynn Downey, after a hunting trip in 1951, Crosby tried checking into the Hotel Vancouver and was denied. Why? Because of the denim-on-denim Levi’s ensemble he was sporting. Jeans, at the time, were not considered upper class.
Up north, the Hotel Vancouver was left embarrassed after a bellhop quickly recognized Crosby and the situation was corrected; down south, though, famed denim brand Levi’s was thrilled. When they heard about Crosby’s rejection from the hotel, Levi’s designers jumped at the opportunity to create a custom-made jean tuxedo for the celebrity. At the J-Bar Ranch in Elko, Nevada during the Silver State Stampede, Levi’s presented Crosby with the suit. Made from the classic denim used for the brand’s iconic 501 jeans, the look consisted of a tuxedo-style jacket, equipped with a corsage of red tabs and shiny rivets, and an interior leather patch that read: “Notice to All Hotel Men.” Levi’s dubbed the look the Canadian Tuxedo.
Southern parts of IL, IN, & OH? Kentucky has the Bourbon Trail sounds like your looking for the Meth Makers Trail...
Don't judge.

That's a great assessment of the drive. I liked eastern OH and PA
I've driven across the US a few times northern, southern and middle. KS is still hands down the worst state in the US to suffer driving through MO is a close second due to the Bible thumper billboards competing with the sex shop billboards.

You're being facetious right.

Chicago, NYC, Philadelphia, Baltimore the worst I riden through.
I learned how to drive in Houston. NASCAR driving but with politeness attached. Denver is awful. Seattle isn't half bad but Baltimore was just mean.

One of the 1st things you learn in the big city's in the east, you don't use turn signals , drivers will cut you off for the insurance.

At first I thought there was no way this was actually in America. Googled it. FFS!
