How to Show Pride in Your City

Back when I was a stand-up comic, I played the Funny Bone comedy club in Green Bay Wisconsin a few times. Most cities have something they are famous for, and often when you visit the city you find their defining trait has been exaggerated. I visited New York and was not mugged. I visited Miami, and I did not at any point wear a thong.

The first time I visited Green Bay I dropped by the mall to pick up a few things and saw that part of the decoration was a massive sand sculpture depicting Vince Lombardi and a wedge of cheese.

Green Bay: believe the hype.

Interesting sidenote: when sculpted in a medium that doesn’t allow for different colors or transparent lenses in his glasses, a statue of Vince Lombardi is easy to mistake for a Blues Brother.

Why am I talking about Green Bay? Because the second panel of this comic is about Seattle’s pro sports teams, and whenever I played Green Bay all I would have to say is that my father was a Seahawks fan and I would get a huge laugh.
