Amazon.com Says St. Louis is the 18th Most Romantic City

 Posted on February 9, 2011  |  The Editor

Basing their rankings off of sales data of romantic novels, relationship books, romantic comedy movies, Barry White albums and various “sexual wellness” products per capita since the first of the year, Amazon.com has placed St. Louis at number 18 on it’s Most Romantic City list. To us that sounds more like St. Louis has relationship issues than one that’s naturally romantic. Why buy all that crap if you’re just naturally gifted with the ladies? [Read More]

 Posted on September 7, 2010  |  The Editor

St. Louis made #3 on a seemingly good list about the best places to go for Labor Day! What the hell is happening here? Something feels wrong…very wrong. We aren’t the only ones feeling it, right Ghostbusters? Exactly Dr. Venkman! “Human sacrifice! Dogs and cats…living together!” We are St. Louis. We don’t get on “good” lists and we don’t know how to take this. On the one hand it’s great to see St. [Read More]

 Posted on August 30, 2010  |  The Editor

#1 New York (JFK, LaGuarida, Newark) #2 Los Angeles #3 St. Louis #4 Washington D.C. #5 Boston Those are the five worst airports in these United States, as voted on by the readers of “Travel and Leisure”. Hey, at least its not about crime this time! Maybe folks just miss TWA: its old home, Lambert-St. Louis International Airport, is dreary to AFC readers on a number of fronts. It ranks last for its airline clubs—you’ll find only one American Admirals Club—and its food and shopping rank 28th and 29th, respectively. [Read More]

 Posted on July 13, 2010  |  The Editor

Some random site that reported that Mars (the candy company) said that St. Louis is the 6th manliest city, so it must be true. Web sites just don’t make things up for links you know?! …also did we mention that there is a secret Air Force base under the Edward Jones Done? The entrance is in the gift shop where no one would think to look. Via the “Top 50 Manliest Cities” study, COMBOS® – the hearty, pretzel and cracker snack made with real cheese – examines what makes a city manly and ranks 50 major metropolitan areas using criteria such as number of professional sports teams, popularity of power tools and frequency of monster truck rallies.

 Posted on March 24, 2010  |  The Editor

In the last pseudo-official yearly tally before we get the numbers from the 2010 census form you are filling out as we speak, St. Louis clocked as the 18th most populated metro area.

Grant [Read More]

 Posted on February 10, 2010  |  The Editor

Take that every other United States city list that always has St. Louis at either the bottom or at the top when the list starts with “Worst…”! Someone just got named to the “Distinctive Distination” list! St. Louis was named among the 2010 Dozen Distinctive Destinations by the National Trust for Historic Preservation (NTHP) and could be named a “favorite” if the city garners enough online votes. The NTHP has recognized, since 2000, cities and towns that offer “an authentic visitor experience,” according to the organization. [Read More]
