Minneapolis ranks 18th., shouldering aside such wimpy wannabes as Cleveland, Detroit, Baltimore, and Boston. And Chicago comes in 46th! Any of you Blackhawk fans wanna make something out of this?

Mars Snackfood US and its Combos snack food brand commissioned the study. The ranking is part of the Combos launch of its Ultimate Man Zone Sweepstakes, which awards prize packages to upgrade men's tailgating, grilling, home theater or gaming "zones."New York City finished last out of 50 of the largest U.S. metropolitan areas.



Man up, damn it!

"New York City brings up the rear, followed by LA and San Francisco" - meaning LA is second-to-last, San Francisco is third from the last. I can understand San Francisco, but the only thing that makes sense for LA is that they must have figured out Tom Cruise lives there.

Having lived in Chicago for many years, I have to admit there was a paucity of monster truck rallies. We Blackhawk fans and sons of the City of Broad Shoulders somehow sucked it up on got on with it.

Apparently so, Lushy. Trouble is, those kinds of places also seem to have the manliest women.

Um, the nekkid hooker sillouette goes on the grill.  The mudflaps are Yosemite Sam bearing both pistols with the words,  "Back Off!"  below.  No damn long-horns, that's only for cadillacs.  You do need a rebel flag license plate on the front bumper.  Damn Ven, get your knowledge of redneckology up to speed.

Status: offline 		I have to admit that on a long road trip the salt & cheese in Combos are appealing.  Same goes for beef jerky and you can wash it all down with a soda or Slurpee.
 
The problem with eating Combos is comparing them to the treats you feed the dogs.  Snausages, anyone?
