You, ScranBarre, are the reason the term "booster" was created...
I like the term "Fanboy" better. (Not directing that at you ScranBarre, just making the statement. )

There should be a poll for which cities are not overhyped on this board.

Write it up as a back handed compliment

I don't think "booster" is necessarily an insult...it's more like calling someone a dork or something like that.

A number of my fellow Texas fanboys like to think that at least one city in Texas is the answer to every question ever posited on this site. I myself chose Houston as one city overhyped here. I love my city, but to be honest, it's not for everybody. I don't think it's overhyped in the general media, but it does get mentioned quite a bit here.

As much as I would've liked to choose Denver, the Houstonians are really out of hand on this forum as a whole.

My vote goes for Oil City, PA. I'm just so tired of always heaing about that place that it sickens me.
