In the South Park episode "The Red Badge of Gayness" EP 314 in 1999. Topeka was taken by Eric Cartmen's confederate forces.

"That's what you get when you let some dude from Los Angles/Texas with the alias Mookfu raw dog it.  Willesgirl can back me up here.  There's a lesson in this.  You only get HIV once; make it count." - Mr. Bread

Fact (:dunno:):  At least through the early 90's Topeka had both the most psychiatrists, and crazy people, per capita of any city in the world.
Tom Cruise? Brett Favre? :fatty:

BMW like rough ridin' clockwork...  :flush:

The Taco Bell near 10th and Wanamaker is consistently one of the top grossing Taco Bells in the nation. I think it's been #1 multiple years. And a bunch of really nice, cool street racers hang out there.

Yes, don't even think about going there on a friday night at 11:00 PM.

Topeka is no armpit.  It is more like a collarbone.  Get over it.

Speaking of hotdogs..................

http://www.city-data.com/businesses/155132178-sasnak-north-topeka-ks.html


fact:   The Topeka Sheridan's (as of at least 2008) sold more hot dogs per capita than any other Sheridans.
Never tried their hot dogs.

Did have a free birthday concrete last week.

surprisingly they aren't that good.  it's odd.  Kind of like that Topeka drinks more Tuaca per capita than the rest of the world.

FACT:  There is a biker bar* in North Topeka that has a motorcycle made of bones & hundereds of bras hanging from the walls.

*Spacing the name, just north of 24, maybe off Kansas?.  
The only place in Topeka that I would take someone from out-of-town.


That would be the Kick Start Saloon.  Some of them bras gotta be in there since the 40's.

Anybody else but me like Porubsky's Pickles? (from "Little Russia")

They are the best and the Chili is pretty good too!  I particularly like getting yelled at by Old Lady Porubsky when I don't order quick enough.
