The 34th state in the USA, which is boring and (mostly) flat. There are just a bunch of farmers and members of the middle class looking for big cheap housing so they can feel like they’re members of the upper middle class, even though they aren’t. Points of Interest are as follows:
Village West –Nothing special, but if you're driving through KS on your way to somewhere more interesting it’s worth a stop, if only to break the monotony of seeing all the cows and
corn fields (KS grows more
corn than wheat).
Massachusetts Street in
Lawrence:
Lawrence is the only city in KS with any culture. Mass. Street is notable for its locally owned restaurants and stores.
Great Plains Mall: Not really great, the entire thing would fit in one of the department stores at Mall of
America and half the stores are empty.
Renaissance Festival
KU – A decent
school that does surprisingly well in basketball
KSU - A decent
school
The first 4 places are all close to Missouri for the sole purpose of stealing MO’s tax dollars by drawing
people in Kansas City to spend their money in KS, which is rather unfortunate because those rednecks really need the money to fix their roads. In case you didn’t catch it, the majority of
KC is in MO. In fact, everything significant that you’ve ever heard of being in KC is in KC, MO, although KC, KS exists. The Kansas City Zoo, Mount Leonard, Union Station, KCI, and Worlds of Fun are actually in MO, despite any Kansan propaganda you
may have heard.
