A small town in the middle of cornfields, the biggest excitment on a friday night is the high school football game. Where you give derections based on the one and only stop light in town. Know for more bars than churchs.

Get the Spring Heeled Jack mug.A so-called "city" in Missouri--Springfield is more like a big small town. Many of it's residents suffer from small-town syndrome and many of the small business owners here think they are hot fucking tits and that their shit doesn't stink... all the while gentrifying the north part of the commercial district (actually just one street), ironically, most of these stores can't afford to stay open from 9 to 5. Residents of Springfield also enjoy not shutting the fuck up about cashew chicken or how bad the traffic is, even though the "city" literally takes 15 minutes to drive from one end to the other. For it's size, there are a surprising number of homeless people in Springfield contrasted by a church on literally every fucking corner where bible thumpers judge you and a ridiculous number of banks on every other corner. Downtown is full of frat douchebags going clubbing or diet liberals and wannabe hipsters who want you to know how woke they are and go to the same handful of bars... no need to worry though, some white dude with a beard and tattoos will probably open another brewery soon!
