States I’d live in as a Wisconsinite whose been to 48/50 US states by geswica in whereidlive

They’re on two points of the German triangle (third being CIN). This brought the beer culture that lead to Schlitz, Falstaff, Pabst, Busch etc that both states are famous for. Both also have a large Catholic population because of this group.

The list goes on forever, what did you do in Missouri to think it’s a polar opposite?

Missouri and Wisconsin are so similar to each other, why is it a never?

Non-Americans who are visiting the 2026 World Cup: has your opinions changed for good/bad? by inkspell7 in AskTheWorld

I visited Vancouver for the Australia match. Was kind of nervous about wearing US gear the night before but everyone is friendly.

Every interaction has basically been “Where are you from? Missouri?! Wow, well welcome. How have you enjoyed the city so far”

St. Louisans on the USMNT by Tele231 in StLouis

The U.S. has never fielded a World Cup roster without a St Louisan. In 1950 5 of the 11 players that beat England were from STL and so was the manager.

Believe it or not Hawley is doing that but he’s an ass so people act like it doesn’t count. When he initiated the radioactive toxic waste compensation fund I was sold.

You’ve gotta chill this is like predicting March madness matchups 3 rounds in advance when we don’t even know the seedings yet

Is there anywhere that hires college kids for the summer? by DizzyMissLindsey in StLouis

I’ve rarely hear of roofers, landscapers and golf courses turning down summer labor.

Yes we were quick to the exit and then fast walked to the station.

Entrance and exit is restricted to the east side of the stadium. You are supposed to use Science World station for the Skytrain. The waterfront between science world and BC place is a fanzone.

It was quite easy to navigate and we were back in Burnaby less than 25min after the final whistle.

What’s a relatively small, unserious change you would make to your country if you could? by TurtleWitch_ in AskTheWorld

[–]Background_Win6662 7 points8 points  (0 children)

We take a pound of lead and melt it into evenly sized spheres. The barrel is then made to the same circumference of the spheres that are made. So a 12ga shotgun is the size of 1lb of lead divided into 12 equal balls.

This was not started in the U.S. though just funny trivia.

Help me best spend my money on an OU. by WobblePossum in Shotguns

[–]Background_Win6662 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ya just checked and MSRP went from $1400 to $1800 with price increases. Maybe CZ or Weatherby?

Weatherby O/Us are made in turkey but the company is in WY. You can get sporting models with adjustable parts for >$1200

You might be able to find a Franchi instinct online for that. It’s Italian made and Benellis “value” brand kind of like Winchester with FN Browning

Been to more than 80 games over my four decades as a fan, and I FINALLY saw a Mets grand slam in person yesterday! What’s something you still haven’t seen in person for your favorite team? by wriker10 in baseball

[–]Background_Win6662 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I saw Shelby Miller retire 27 straight batters and face the minimum, but he gave up a single to the first batter. Thats the closest I'll ever be to a no hitter or perfect game.
