What's that supposed to mean?

Why do Philadelphians think we Californians think about them at all?

It means the professional team in Colorado has some of the worst 'fans' in sports simply because they're non-existent.

We don't.

No, they are here, there just aren't too many of them. At the very least, the Rockies have continued to draw fairly decent crowds since '07. But, I see your point.

I'm glad you see my point. This is where you respond by telling me who your team is. I assume you're not a native Coloradan.

I'll bet they don't complain about the Mexican and Asian food.... or the price of fresh produce.

They probably do because it's not what they are used to. Just because we think mex food from socal is the best, people not from the area don't really think so. Trust me, I've had some pretty nasty mex food after moving away and the locals from the places I've moved to think it's the bomb,lol

Could that be because they haven't had the food out here? I have friends from back East who all insist on heading to my local hole in the wall Mexican joint as soon as they hit my driveway. They also tell me how the stuff back home never tastes quite as good as they once thought it was.

I've taken so many visitors to La Bufa in Fontana, I feel like I should be getting kickbacks.

Maybe you think that but not me.

They should stop off in New Mexico and try their food. I don't see how anybody could like L.A. Mexican after they've had SF New Mexican.

Oh no, I totally prefer socal mex over new mexican mex, hands down!

Fontucky, when we lived in Missouri (our first place to live after leaving Ca) we missed our taco shops so bad. Then a taco shop opened in Springfield and served our kind of mex food. It was awesome, but unfortunately it closed down shortly after we moved away,lol...I think we were keeping them in business...most the people we told to eat there didn't see the big to-do, can you believe it?!
