What's up all you KC snobs!!!

America's Snobbiest Cities
14 (tie) Kansas City, MO
The city’s trio of big museums and the Kauffman Center—home to the city’s symphony, ballet, and opera—are proof that this city cares about more than just its famed barbecue. And while such cultural attractions are indeed state of the art, they remain accessible; Kansas City won the survey for affordability.
What's funny is that KC beat out Austin (19). Having spent considerable portions of my life in both.. this study is completely off base. Don't get me wrong, I love Austin but people here are EXTREMELY proud of the town, to a point that is annoying as hell. KC on the other hand has never come across as a "snobby" city even though it has plenty more reasons to be.

[the biggest surprise was Minneapolis at #4.. WTF? I can't imagine anyone in Minny being proud of well, anything.]

It's a weird list. Their criteria seems to be which cities have the most "high culture" attractions that are also widely available. Doesn't sound like snobbery to me. Their descriptions read like praise for the most part, but I think they just threw the snobby thing on there to draw internet traffic.

Spent a week in Austin a couple years ago. I can't believe that's supposed to be the nice part of Texas.

Spend a week or so in west Texas and it’ll make more sense.

Depends on what you consider nice. Also, its not hard to beat out El Paso, Dallas, Houston or San Antonio. You just need to not suck ass entirely and you are better than those crapfests. Fort Worth is actually not bad though.

Austin is all about a freaking ginormous nightlife. I have spent considerable time in New Orleans and it doesn't even come close to Austin's nightlife. Austin's downtown scene is just huge. In KC terms, combine the Plaza, Westport, Power and Light, Martini Corner and take them times 5 and you are getting close to just the walkable downtown bars of Austin. It's staggering really.

Apparently you don't like women... or bars. There is the live music as well but that shit annoys me so I don't count it.

Whatever you big purple toad. UT provides a never ending supply of marginally interesting but definitely gorgeous coeds. Slightly better looking than TCU girls with less attitude and less religion.
