If you don't live in and participate in rural American culture, how can you even call yourself American? Cold beer, cruising, mud runs, football, that's AMERICA!

69Charger - Don't move to San Francisco, you might be in for a rude awakening! But then, you probably can't afford to, otherwise you'd be '16Ferrari!

All those big city urban elitists hate rural America. They think their urban utopias are the best and they insult people living outside it. Just look at the tons of posts by urban dwellers trashing on people living in rural America.

We can't have tractor pulls in L.A.

Traffic on the Hollywood Freeway is already a bit*h with all the high-speed car chases.

I live in NW AR, raise my own veggies, love the Hogs (walk to the stadium to watch them play), bite me.

Last thing I'd ever wanna be is a hick, hayseed or bumpkin. No thanks.

If you wanna spend your whole life bobbing for apples, entering your prize pig in the fair, using your front lawn as your garage, and inflating the tires on your house....have at it.

If it ain't urbane and cosmopolitan, I want no part of it. While you watch NASCAR, I'm watching Formula One and laughing at you.

Don't be like that. It's uncalled for, and reduces you to the level of the people you are deriding. You are essentially shaming them for having no money.

I agree with this. Everything desertdetroiter is calling out is just as American as the things he/she is into. That is the great thing about this country - that urban stuff is America. That rural stuff is America. Everything in between is America.

Right. Because cold beer and football are outlawed in any community with a population greater than 200.

As for cruising, do adults really do that, other than on a ship? Most people I know stopped that nonsense when they were about 17.
