The wonderful, exotic and beautiflul cities we have been to, such as Madrid, Paris and London but you never hear about the ones that were the worst. Just curious if others have their favorite worst city ever visited. Mine is: Tripoli, Libya. You could smell it from three miles away.

Parts of New Orleans scared me more than driving through the South Bronx, and the South Bronx is pretty skeery. :shock:

Freeport- there go the chiclets. :wave:
Add Mossyhead and the little kkk towns spotted throughout Alabama.
Buttugly are towns that have alot of hate- you can feel it.
Don't ask me to explain women's intuition or a man's need to pee in the yard.😀

Hmmmm...ok.
Then I'll go with Midland, TX.
Wind, lots of sand, lots of blowing sand, closed up businesses, more blowing sand. Did I mention the wind?
Maybe only scary in a ghost town sort of way, but definitely ugly.

If she needs a escort, have her notify me. I would be willing to help out if I can.
She'll be with the videographer and I think a second shooter. I don't know all of the details yet.

Thanks for offering!

You probably just didn't see the right parts of Cleveland. For me though it is Newark,N.J.

As I told BR, I probably didn't. I will refrain from passing judgment (again) until I make a return visit. I also agree with you about Newark.

Lemme tell you something - there are parts of New Orleans and Jacksonville where I won't go cuz I know my RELATIVES live there...AND I KNOW MY RELATIVES! I'd be safer yelling gangsta rap lyrics while wearing a hot-pink polkadot mankini at a Klan rally.

"Cousin, how come you don't come up and see us no mo'? You done forgot where you came from?"

"Uh, nope. I don't come up to see you suckaz cuz I REMEMBER where I came from!"​

NOLA has always been scary.

We weren't allowed by Tulane to have cars as a freshmen. Thank God we were allowed to have our cars after that. Otherwise I'd probably be dead from all of the sketchy people in NOLA.

That being said, I love NOLA. It was great having the Tulane basketball team protecting me.

Ding Ding Ding!!!! I totally agree! Newark is mine too! My son played for Nationals in New Jersey and our hotel was near Newark airport. Do not make a wrong turn if you visit it can get dicey pretty fast!
