Freeport, Illinois is a small mid western town about 100 miles NW of Chicago. Gerald McClellan a WBO and WBC middleweight champion, Deacon Davis of the Harlem Globetrotters, Preston Pearson an NFL football star, and Robert Johnson, the founder of BET, were all born and raised in Freeport. Calista Flockhart from 'Ally McBea'l was also born there.
The famous Lincoln-Douglas debate of 1858 took place in Freeport and the Billibeck pretzel factory thrived there in the late 1800's. The Freeport High School mascot, to this day, is a pretzel! PRETZEL POWER!
Freeport has more than 800 acres of parks with many activities. At the beautiful Krape Park there is miniature golf, tennis courts, 2 waterfalls, an old-fashioned carousel and firetruck with a fireman's pole. You can also rent a paddle boat to cruise the lovely Yellow Creek.

Get the Freeport, Illinois mug.An IRC network founded around 1999 by a guy named Rob Levin, who started with good intentions but became a money-loving whore after he learned he could get donations from people stupid enough to donate to the network. Eventually more people got sucked into this facade, and the network grew. After Rob Levin died, Christel Dahlskjaer took over and made things a little better (but not much). On the whole, the network is still run by power-hungry IRC operators who can't get jack shit done, as shown by the extreme backlog of GCF requests.
People who are insane enough to develop for FreeNode are notoriously bad coders who spend their days smoking meth. Almost paradoxically, FreeNode has closed-sourced many core utilities such as Idoru (though nobody wants the code anyway). The devs also are famous for forking ircd's into piles of useless garbage that only morons who know nothing about IRC would run.
Anyone who has a respectable project that wants a host for their channel should consider hosting it themselves or on OFTC, rather than use FreeNode's "services."

A relatively small city located in Northwest Illinois. Sadly enough, Freeport is the biggest city in Stephenson County and the population was 26,443 at the 2000 census.
In 1858, the second debate between Abraham Lincoln and Stephen A. Douglas took place in Freeport. Whoop.
This city has been named Pretzel City USA, although there is no longer any pretzel bakery OR factory and there is more than one high school in the US (hell, in Illinois) with a pretzel as the mascot.
This town is full of hicks, potheads, and 'gangsters'.
Freeport has a high rate for teen pregnancy and STD's, because the teenagers located in Freeport have nothing better to do than have sex with each other. In 2009 alone, 246 cases of Chlamydia were reported. Gross.
Freeport's main attraction is the Walmart. Other than the wonderful 24-Hour Walmart, there is nothing to do and nowhere to go.

Person 1: "I partied in Freeport the other day, and now it hurts to pee!"
Person 2: "You might want to go get checked for Chlamydia, Bro."
Person 3: "...Who's down to go to Walmart?"

Get the Freeport mug.A small "city" in NW Illinois where everyone is moving out and all the businesses are closing. There is nothing to do here but drink and do drugs. If you drive down Prospect, Carroll, Pleasant, Iroquois, Illinois, Miami, East Empire, High st. or Shawnee at night you will probably get shot. There is a lovely little shop by the MLK center, there are always people crossing the street to get there who dare you to hit them. There are 2 cops. There are alot of crack heads with nasty teeth. If you are looking to buy a particular item, chances are none of the stores will carry it and you will have to go out of town, if you need a job, prepare to make minimum wage. Your neighbors either sell or do drugs, or both. The north west side is becoming a ghost town. It has lots of fast food joints and banks, but nothing else. The high school mascot is a pretzel.
Hey lets go to Freeport for a fresh Pretzel, it is the Pretzel City you know! Oh... you don't have fresh pretzels?
