This. 15 years ago it birkenstocks, dreds, peace, and love. Now it's skinny jeans, zip-up hoodies, hurt feelings, and androgyny. Last time I was in Missoula It was like a GD Morrissey look-a-like convention.Brock Landers wrote:Catattack wrote:

Hippies, hipsters, shitty weather. And try mistakenly taking the Reserve Street exit on a Friday afternoon and making your way through traffic downtown. Missoula...it's the new Seattle.Vidav wrote:Oh come on. We get at least 30 days of sunshine a year.DaCats21 wrote:

Thanks for this poll and topic, this is actually something i've wondered about myself as well. It seems like the idea of a
'college town' is slightly different for everyone, with agreement on a few key points. I've never been to any of these cities (save portland's airport to change planes), but i'd very much like to make a trip

Re: Best Regional (Northwest) FCS College Town?
A few weeks ago I traveled from the Tetons to Seattle and had the opportunity to briefly visit Bozeman (Dinner and hotel stay), Missoula (Brunch) and Cheyney (see the menstruation field). I probably didn't get to see enough to give a full opinion, but from what I saw, Bozeman seemed like the better college town. Montana Ale Works was awesome and the night life seemed pretty good for a summer week night. Missoula was cool too, it seemed like every car had a kayak or bike strapped to the roof. Everyone seemed to be pretty active, but I didn't get a college town vibe, more of an "asheville of the northwest" vibe. Cheyney wasn't anything special. Here's a picture of my stop by WA-Griz:

Did you post an arrival time? If not you should have. I bet there could have been a Lunch in Missoula...and I bet the ICON/HOF'er would have signed autographs.GSUhooligan wrote:A few weeks ago I traveled from the Tetons to Seattle and had the opportunity to briefly visit Bozeman (Dinner and hotel stay), Missoula (Brunch) and Cheyney (see the menstruation field).
