The Case for Indianapolis

[UofIght]

While I don't like sitting in cold weather too much, I think it would be cool to see Iowa playing in the Big Ten Championship game with the weather like the picture in this article.

For those of you saying indianapolis is boring...you live in Iowa.

Best feature of events in Indy, downtown is so walkable. Park your car and forget it.

That's a laugh. Look, I have acctually come to the conclusion that Indy is probably the best place to host the game, after vigerously opposing it, but I will never, ever admit the town is anything less than horrible.

You can stay in a hotel near the stadium, eat at Chili's, and drink at a bar with 30 framed pictures of Peyton Manning, and that's fine, but that doesn't change the fact that the entire central Indiana region is a cultural wasteland with almost nothing of interest to any non-redneck.

For Christ's sake, I left for central Florida, and somehow the cumulative IQ here is above Indy's. THAT is saying something.
