grapevine, tx. /On the road to SoWal
Doesn't count, has to be no redeeming quality to it. :wave:


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.

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

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!
