It really couldn't be. Have you been to Terre Haute? It makes Youngstown look nice.
How bad can it be? You have... um... the ghosts of all those death row guys and stuff.
Yeah I see.
I've passed by on I-70 during various road-trips but never stopped. If it makes Youngstown look nice though must be one hell of a shithole.
There is a reason to stop if you are of a certain political persuasion- Eugene V. Debs, who ran on the Socialist ticket in 1920 from prison and got a significant percentage of the vote (only 3%, but for a socialist in the U.S., in prison no less, that's amazing), was from Terre Haute and there is a museum there in his former house. Bernie Sanders took a sideline from his campaign in 2016 to make a private stop to see the museum.
Huh, I'm going to make a point to stop next time if I can and check it out. Cheers!
