Sacramento Mug

The most boring city ever, despite the fact that it's fairly big. It’s the capital of California. It has no real ghettos. The closest thing it has to a ghetto is Del Paso Heights, which isn't really that bad. It also has only a couple really affluent neighborhoods, so pretty much 98% of Sacramento is middle class. Sacramento has no real uniqueness or culture like other cities. The only thing that's sort of unique is the old Victorian-era houses that are downtown, a few blocks from the government buildings. Yeah, it has clubs, bars, and restaurants, but every city has that. None of them are particularly interesting. The weather sucks. In the fall, winter, and spring it gets cold and rains, but it never EVER snows except up in the Sierra Nevada mountains, which are about 40 miles from the city. Because of this, you will never get to make a snowman, make a snow angel, or have a snowball fight unless you take a trip to the mountains. In the summer it gets really hot, and is over 90° F for most of June, July, August, September, and the first half of October. Sometime in October the weather switches from really hot to rainy and cold, as mentioned above. So the weather is pretty much never good, except maybe in April and May. One good thing about Sacramento is that there are a lot of different races and nationalities living here, and there isn’t much racism. There is a large Russian and Ukrainian immigrant population. The teenagers in Sacramento use the word "hella" a lot. It can get annoying after a while, but it’s not too bad. Sacramento is an industrialized city, not a cow town. The only farms and ranches are on the very outskirts of town. The Kings are the basketball team of Sacramento. They play in Arco Arena, a pretty but extremely loud arena in West Sacramento. The Kings’ colors are purple and black. The Kings and the L.A. Lakers have had a sort of feud going on. In 2002 the Kings were actually good enough to make it to the Western Conference NBA Finals. The Lakers came to Sacramento for one of the games and stayed in a hotel, where Kobe Bryant got food poisoning. No one else got food poisoning in that hotel, so it’s pretty obvious that the hotel staff poisoned him on purpose to try to get the Lakers to lose. The Lakers won the Western Conference finals anyway. The Kings suck now. Sometimes Sacramento is called Sac-Town, but that name is just used by lame wannabe-gangstas. No one here actually seriously calls it Sac-Town. So that’s the lowdown on Sacramento. It’s a really boring city that has nothing distinguishing about it. It’s the most average, normal, run-of-the-mill city ever.
