Seems like a good combo.  Buying lederhosen probably seems like a much better idea when you are at a brewery.

People in the suburbs would say "downtown" or "the city" and might do so while saying they don't go there because it's too dangerous.

"The Nati" had urban roots, I'm pretty sure, and primarily used, though not all that much, by longtime black residents.

Hipsters in Over the Rhine might take offense if you say that they live in some poor, adjacent neighborhood like Avondale rather than "OTR." They have lots of OTR pride.

I can't imagine that as many as 1 out of 10 people are aware when the tennis tournament is happening. The pics on news sites and such talking about the upcoming tournament all featured Nadal, last year's champ. No one has a clue that he is not playing this year.

If they're talking to other locals, they would say the name of their neighborhood or suburb. Otherwise, they're not saying "Cincinnati" enough to be tedious.

Right now, there is a segment of city people who are SUPER sensitive about the amount of bike lane construction going on.  REAL cities have an abundance of bike lanes, you know?  Let me show you pictures of the wonderful, beautiful bike lanes in cities like Paris and Amsterdam.  Let me tell you about the virtues of bicylcle transportation!

Not really.  Lots of people in the metro area don't like the Steelers.  And the St. Louis Cardinals.  But I think it's pretty limited to the sports teams.  Some people in Cleveland don't like Cincinnati, but that's largely a one-sided thing.

Biggest Octoberfest weekend in Cincinnati. (Although, there are several big weekends.) On Friday, had an Octoberfest party at work. Some wore their personal liederhosen and/or green felt hats with feathers. We ate sausages and potato pancakes and pretzels and drank beer. This morning, I ran a 14K "brewery run" and was handed two Hudepohl tall boys at the finish line along with the finisher's medal. Now, I'm all showered up and ready to head back downtown to eat sausages and schnitzels and pretzels and whatever else and drink beer. It's just what people here do, so I'm going with it.

I, too, partook in the Oktoberfest in Cincinatti this past weekend. Broke down my beer experience in what I thought was the proper thread, but the knowledgeable KC enlightened me and now I'm discussing it here.

HUGE festival (3rd largest in the world after Germany-duh, and Toronto). Enjoyed many delicious brews, and some great food as well. Goetta was new to me, and I loved it. Even purchased some to bring home and make soon. Going back next year for sure.

Oh, man. The bike enthusiasts do not like the mayor because he is not bike friendly enough for them. Now this.

He's sticking to his guns even though it's against the law.

It's like he's trolling them. Exactly like it. He's right in their neighborhood. He could be demonstrating to himself how he's right that that area doesn't need more bike lanes or something like that, which is funny, too. I kinda doubt that he just wanted to take a ride.

Question about your town... When are they supposed to finish the construction on 75? That project is a serious pita when traveling to Dayton.

No idea. 71 doesn't take you too far out of the way at all and is a much more pleasant drive - even when there isn't construction on 75.
