It's simply a way for posters to bash their favorite cities.

Oh yes, because the glamour and poise that is ALBUQUERQUE just rolls off the tongue. I'll have you know that Rapid City constantly gets comments on its beautiful name. What does ABQ even mean?!?!

Oh please... Rapid City getting comments hahha your silly, sure.. its in a state with hardly any people, most people wouldnt even know where that was..?

Albuquerque has history in its name!

The city was founded in 1706 as the Spanish colonial outpost of Ranchos de Alburquerque.

The village was named by the provincial governor Don Francisco Cuervo y Valdes in honour of Don Francisco Fernández de la Cueva, Duke of Alburquerque, viceroy of New Spain from 1653 to 1660. The first "r" in "Alburquerque" was dropped at some point in the 19th century, supposedly by an Anglo-American railroad station-master unable to correctly pronounce the city's name. Some New Mexicans still prefer the spelling Alburquerque, For example the book by that name by Rudolfo Anaya. In the 1990s, the Central Avenue Trolley Buses were emblazoned with the name Alburquerque (with two "r"s) in honor of the city's historic name.
