re: In downtown St. Louis. What a shithole…

I went to Hartford Connecticut and never saw a deader dowtown anywhere, ever. Not even in dead cities (on Sundays) in Europe like Frankfurt. Even in Frankfurt you might have movies, restaurants a smattering of shops.

There was a guide on what to do at the reception and it had one pizza place (which was fantastic), the in house bar/restaurant (excellent as well) a chinese place and italian take out...and that is it.

And the New England Patriots wanted to move there!
