You are going to fit right in around here, if that post is any indicator. Welcome to Knoxhell... er, Knoxvile uh Knoxvegas maybe?
Things to watch out for if you are going to be a Knoxvillian
· Large masses of drone-minded football fans wearing lots of bright orange
· Drivers on the Cumberland Ave. strip. (and in this case WATCH OUT!)
· Pedestrians, mostly frat boys and sorostitutes on the Cumberland Ave. strip.
· A huge ball of tarnished gold glass towering vacant above a derelict amphitheater (See The Simpsons, season 7, Episode 3F17)
· A 10 foot tall Rubik’s Cube under a highway in a construction site
· Iblis’ Links (again in this case WATCH OUT!)
· Traffic, traffic, traffic
· Construction, construction, construction.
· College students, college students, college students
· A huge Basketball atop a two-story hoop of steel and glass
· A park where you can play tennis while small engine aircraft buzz right above your head (not models: real planes)
· A civil war fort that is really the site of a former civil war fort (don’t be fooled!)
· A statue of a real big guy in a rowboat sinking into the concrete.
· Crazy mo-fos water skiing in the middle of winter.
· Thousands of floating yellow rubber ducks passing down the river
In addition, don’t miss the 5 or more great goth/alternative dance nights every month, a great coffee house (11th St. Expresso House,) a diverse crowd of interesting people, large historic cemeteries, some amazingly good restaurants representing scores of ethnic cuisine, the nearby National Forest in the mountains (camping, hiking, rafting, skiing, horseback riding) with 3 cities worth of theme parks, tourist amusements and shopping on the way, a yearly Greek Fest, a beautiful nature preserve, large parks and bike trails, a paddlewheel riverboat, a passenger steam train, specialty stores for all tastes from many cultures, grand scale fireworks displays, local art and community festivals, traditional theater houses, and free outdoor movies in market square in the fall. There are always a lot of local bands playing and surprisingly enough we’re a tour-stop for a wide variety of bigger name performers. There’s more than a few martial arts schools in the city, and for the spiritually minded, there are many churches and groups from “mainstreamâ€
's are not to be avoided. they're to be downloaded, printed out at kinkos, and made into billboards.
