Also...they took a train to a convention somewhere!!! Where the flip is the TRAIN???????
The booze cruise on Lake Wallenpaupack....do they actually have booze cruises there?

Hey and they showed Lake Scranton having a beach! Lake Scranton is just a reservoir with a walking trail around it.

I'm still wondering where Chili's and Hooters are in Scranton. And I don't think too mnay white-collar office workers are hanging around Poor Richard's Pub.

Thats the biggest stretch in the show, they obvious have never been to Poor Richards...OR maybe they have and they are just mocking it, that wouldn't surprise me either.

Although they do a decent job plugging Scranton, I don't think their mission is to acurately portray Scranton....they just wanted a generic run of the mill town for the setting.
You've got that right, Scranton is very generic and run of the mill, not to mention non-descriptive also.
