"Cowtown"

Used by people who have some jealous complex against Columbus, usually Cleveland.

Columbus has grown into a diverse city with a booming economy and superb job market. Cowtown was born, I think, when the Columbus Clippers popularized the cowbell at Columbus Clippers baseball games (AAA of the Yankees).

Columbus Crew, huge ampitheatre, 2 new arenas ,the Blue Jackets, 4 huge malls in about 10 yrs only show the maturity of Columbus and what it has turned into. Columbus is often used as a testing ground for products because of its marketability.

Cowtown? Try Dayton or Chillicothe.
