it's really really huge. from a square mile standpoint, and the highways are pretty confusing.

any other observations?

Embarrassingly dreadful sports teams.  Pretty good bbq.

Was going 435 east the other day to get off on Roe to see my Dr. but the right lane went straight to the 69 North exit towards I-35 and ended up being late  :curse: Felt like a total KC rookie even though I lived here my whole life.

And yes, bad teams. Good bbq

435 is a giant circle around the city.

Take 69 S if you want to get to the elite areas.

Take 35 S if you want to go to olathe  :flush:

Take 69/35 N to get downtown.

Also, WGAF about the missourah highways  :jerk:.  Johnson County or bust.

For the record, EMAWmeister loves Johnson County and he doesn't give a S who knows it.

Laugh at people who think any part of KC is really that dangerous. Also laugh at them if they mention the "traffic".

In pretty much any city, neighborhoods are only dangerous if you're engaging in illegal activity.

KC factoid:  more highway lanes per 1,000 people than any other city in the US.

Let's meet down at Independence Ave & The Paseo this Friday night to discuss further.

Little known "Olathe" factoid:  has more square mileage than the city of San Francisco which is also known as "the city by the bay".

Impossible to get lost in KC.  You're a Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!) if you do.

Missouri is trash.  Johnson County "gets it".  Wyandotte is doing all they can to up their standards.

Athletic teams suck.  BBQ is great.  Arrowhead should be moved near the Speedway.  Kauffman should be moved downtown.

Airport is crap, in a crappy location.....but easy to get-in/get-out.

Missouri is trash.

P&L is a bit overrated, Westport is cool, Plaza is nice during the holidays, Waldo sucks, Legends is meh, Park Place is ok.

Missouri is trash.

Johnson County "gets" what?  Taupe houses, minivans, soccer moms who drive 10 miles below the speed limit with their cell phones attached to their faces, golden labs, two kids, trees the size of twigs?

Johnson County is the bleached version of everything that has ever existed.

I'm from Kansas and I just view it as one city that straddles the state line.
