I should start a thread of all the towns/cities that have been proudly proclaimed as the meth capital of the universe.
Independence (started it all with the Rolling Stones story back in the 90's)
Raymore
Belton
Kearny
Knob Knoster
Knob Town
Joliet
New Jersey
and about 500 other cities that I can't think of.

Kearney, that's funny. While I admit I have done it a couple of times too, I grew up there and the place wasn't big enough to be the meth capital of Clay County. Probably still isn't.
I've heard it said that it was also Columbia, Des Moines, West Des Moines, Omaha, Council Bluffs, Davenport, etc etc. I think it's just an 'urban cliche' to say that some place you think little of is 'the meth capital of the world'.
In reality the meth capital of the world is probably Mexico or Columbia. More has to be imported than is made up in old camper shells and sheds in any one particular place.
