I think Wamego would be in this discussion if it weren't for its obsession with The Wizard of Oz.

Wamego probably wins the best small town award.

I think Atchison is majestic in it's own way. Set in a valley, right by the river, and good people.  :dunno:

Did meade produce amelia earhart? Yeah, that's what I thought! Atchison helped with aviation and all your awesome frequent flyer miles.

Bethany is in Lindsborg (Which I hear is pretty cool too) just 10 miles south of Salina. Benedictine is in Atchison. I almost played baseball there.

Actually I was just kidding. I do that joke in real life whenever someone mentions Topeka and crime.  Gets a pretty good reaction.
You must hang out with a lot of other Topekans.

the girl that i went to watch play basketball there told me that sometimes when it rains the water is pinkish because of all the blood in the air.

i'm sure that's untrue, but having that as a local legend is enough to DQ this place.

I vote Abilene because it was one of the greatest and wildest cow towns in the wild wild west.  It was so great that the town in Texas was named after it.  How wild was it? Wild Bill Hickok (Deadwood fame) came in to be sheriff after the previous sheriff got his head chopped off with an axe by a pair of farmers but Hickok only lasted about a year because he shot his deputy during a shootout. That wild.

So its basically down to Meade and Abilene.

How many bars does each town have?? And how far is it to the nearest "float-able" river/creek??

All towns named after towns in Texas are disqualified.
