If you're an OSU football zombie, it’s great
Everything here is about college football because the city isn't good enough to have a professional team. For a city that was touted as "up and coming", I was surprised how hillbilly it was. Third rate news talent, overrated restaurants and shopping, and people that don't know how to dress or act (throw out your dress clothes because you won't need them here no matter where you're going). I went to a pricey steakhouse once and saw a guy wearing an untucked t-shirt with his gut hanging out the bottom. Very unfriendly and cliquish people too. In the two years I was here, I didn't make one friend. Lived in a number of places including the east coast. Philadelphia was the worst, and Columbus comes in second.
Also, everything with these people is a superlative. Whatever facet of the city they might be talking about is always the “BEST”, and it is always explain in an overly dramatized fashion with a strangely wild gleaming in their eye.
As I like to tell people, Columbus is West Virginia's largest city.
