ah no Chi-Town the midwest can and will survive without you. Chicago is not the midwest.
the midwest has Chicago though.
Actually if the superiority and hostility torwards other cities doesnt end soon Chicago may just get ganged up upon by the rest of the midwest.
That would be interesting though.
Midwest VS chicago. who would win? well considering the rest of the midwest is much more affordable than Chi-Town then my money is safe on the side of the Midwest.


I would compare you to dementor, but you complain too much.

I know, but you've got two posters in this thread that are disillusioned.

I hate to say it but indianapolis is too insingnifcant compared to chicago to have a "rivalery", A city rivalery has to be historic (like st.louis) or just in general comparison (think nyc, philadelphia, LA, SF)

Chicagoans dont hate indianapolis only some do. Its BS to say all chicagoans hate indianapolis, some like it some dont it depends on the person

Indianapolis is an insignificant city in an insignificant state. Why would anyone from Chicago acknowledge it? Why and who are the people who move there?

Eh, St. Louis is also too "insignificant" to stand a chance against Chicago.

There are a lot of folks who move to Indianapolis and love it. I know some from Pittsburgh who only refer to Pittsburgh as ****sburgh. Pretty clever, I guess.

He said historic rivalry for St. Louis, which at one time was bigger than Chicago reaching all the way up to 3rd/4th largest in the country. St. Louis also "negotiated" the Olympics away from Chicago back then, today it is mainly just a baseball rivalry.

It's pretty clear given your incessantly misinformed and incorrect posts that you're the one with the hostility towards Chicago...
