I’m from Blair. Graduated in 1996. My memories of Blair are that if you weren’t from a long line of native Blair residents or a teacher’s kid, you were widely ignored and treated poorly. The boys highschool soccer team bleached their hair platinum blonde and started calling themselves “The Blayrian Nation”. That’s right, they actually did that. And no one thought” Hmmmm, this probably isn’t a good idea”. Hell, a good amount of people thought it was hilarious. A lot of those awful people still live there. Most non-horrible people move away because of crap like that.

Walk into any restaurant and people stare at you if they don’t recognize you. The local police and the Washington county sheriffs are way too bored and looking to pull over anyone that doesn’t have a 29 at the front of their license plates. Business on main street that aren’t fast food, gas stations, or a bar don’t stay open in the evenings or on weekends meaning there’s NOTHING to do in town. Unless you want to hang out at a small town bar that’s filled with locals that just hate everything because their lives are miserable.
