Hucks: Post Falls Boring? No Way

Online reporter Chanse Watson of the Idaho Panhandler didn’t appreciate a website that ranked his hometown of Post Falls as the second-most boring one in Idaho. How can Post Falls be boring? That’s what Chanse wondered last week in a column. After all, he said, it’s near two towns that rank high on national lists of amazing mountain communities – Coeur d’Alene and Sandpoint. So Chanse conjured a list of places to prove that Post Falls isn’t Dullsville. Spokane River. Check. River City Lanes. Cabela’s. Check. Check. Later: “State Line Showgirls.” Um. Chanse defends his pick: “The purpose of this list is to highlight popular establishments and locations in Post Falls that are noteworthy and unique to the city (or more simply put – places that don’t make us boring).” The entry prompted a response on my Huckleberries blog from Post Falls spokeswoman Kit Hoffer. Kit wasn’t bothered all that much that a strip joint was listed as a community asset. She was miffed that Stateline Showgirls was on a Post Falls list at all because – (drum roll, please) it does business at State Line, an incorporated town. Hence, the name/ DFO , Sunday Huckleberries. More here .

Question: Do you live in a boring town? Why is it boring?
