Columbus It's Right Downtown

 

The Columbus Dispatch - Weekender

Those madcap Michiganders (a Native American  word that means from the Mitten State?  Just ask them where they are from, watch them look at their hand...) have travel advisories about where to NOT venture in Columbus on Saturday along with various slams against Ohio.   

A Chicagoan who is a Michigan alumn  Fightinamish wrote:  

"you can always check out the Michigan-Ohio State game. However, you have to be careful. Apparently, it's not too safe in Columbus, at least according to this e-mail I got from the Michigan alumni association."

 Another Michigan Blog with a travel advisory.... hey he is an attorney in Chicago.. do they export all their grads to IL?

" With the breakdown in law and order in Columbus, Ohio, the State Department has issued the following Travel Warning when traveling to Columbus, Ohio over the next two weeks."

duh haven't they heard Columbus is one of the 6 safest cities in the US.

Fightinamish wrote of what to wear to camouflage oneself in Columbus:

 "Nuts. Nuts, and lots of them.

Don't ask why, just make sure you've got a healthy set of nuts on your abdomen if you value your life at all."
