Shemp inspired me to start this thread. Any particular city you don't like?
I am not a fan of Buffalo.

Drove thru Buffalo once and i'd agree with you Sox....very depressing city. I'll throw in Austin, Texas.....insane traffic in and out and...well...it's Austin, Texas.

Somewhere in the middle

Made a wrong turn in Buffalo once while going to Niagra Falls, didn't take long to determine I was in a "bad" area and did a u-turn out of there. I have already expressed how I feel about Detroit

Nebraska. The whole state. All I've done is drive through it, but it makes me sad.

I could name a few but I am not sure how large the city has to be to qualify.
Probably Cleveland.

I have already expressed how I feel about Detroit I was visiting Niagra Falls as well in my one jaunt thru Buffalo. Got gas there at a convenience store very reminiscent of the store on the Simpsons.

Eastern Colorado is very much an anti-city (urban area), but it gets neglected when mentioning desolate, lonely places. Western Kansas, a popular place to mention when speaking of flat, deserted places has nothing on Eastern Colorado.

Indianapolis was one city I couldn't wait to get out of. We were going to spend a 3-day weekend but I begged to leave after one night.

FINALLY ABOVE the gnat line

I really just can't think of any city that I really just don't want to return for a visit. Most places have both good and bad things to like or dislike.

Bacon - we used to go to Indianapolis for a few days when my son was little. There was lots to do there that was family friendly.
Went to Seattle last year. It was fine, but we're in no rush to go back. Can't exactly explain why.

Guess I forgot about Chicago. Chicago is by far the worst. Worst people, worst layout, worst weather, worst politics, worst everything. Totally forgot about Chicago. Chicago takes the cake.

Bobby, i know your post was football-inspired, but that reminds me.....i've always wanted to go to Oxford, Mississippi (any place in Mississippi for that matter....my dad's family traces its roots there). Oxford just seems like a cool place.

It is a tough call between Chicago and Madison WI for poorest layout for roads and streets. It is like to designed it that way to create traffic jams rather than minimize them.
