I vote for East St Louis.
Detroit would be too funny.
The DNC better have plenty of liberal feelings in their sales pitch because the last convention wasn’t a rousing success financially for Charlotte. I read it ended up costing them some serious dollars and was of little benefit to the local economy.
I’ll say this ahead of time. Anybody who gets ripped off by contracting or supplying the convention deserves what they get. Cash up front only.
I was driving across the country. Passing through the hell hole of ESL, I was at a stop light in front of a bar. It was about 11AM. A hooker approached my car to see if I wanted to party. We had a nice little humorous chat. And then she saw my ten year old daughter in the seat next to me.
It did not take long before the hooker realized I was not down to party. It took a little bit longer for my daughter to figure out why Daddy was flirting with this toothless skinny lady.
We (my daughter and I) laugh about it today. It is her, “first time I ever saw a crack whore” story. And she got to share that moment with me. I am so proud.
Thanks East St Louis! You deserve any great moment you can get!
