Fun times in Cleveland Again!
Still Cleveland!
Come on down to Cleveland town everyone
Under construction since 1868
See our river that catches on fire
It's so polluted that all our fish have AIDS
See the sun almost three times a year
this guy has at least two DUIs
Flats looks like a Scooby Doo ghost town
Don't slow down in East Cleveland or you'll die
Our economy's based on Lebron James
Buy a house for the price of a VCR
Our main export is crippling depression
We're so retarded that we think this is art
It could be worse but at least we're not Detroit!
We're not Detroit!
"Water's coming OUT of the sewer, we're definitely in Cleveland."

A really cool city with a lot of potential. Unfortunately, it's also full of negative, angry people. The objective is not to let those people keep you down.
Cleveland may not be a plum, but it's not a rotten apple, either.

Also known as C-Town by natives, Cleveland is a famous city in the northern area of Ohio that may be even more popular then the capital of Ohio, Columbus. It borders Lake Erie and is known for extreme, ever-changing weather. It is also known for being the poorest city in the United States, very culturally diverse, and the origin of many rap/hip hop artists. There is a lot of cultural pride here, occasionally racism (Mostly the ever-ignorant Black vs. White. Both sides are guilty - Police specificly target blacks, and then there is a day called May Day where white people cannot attend school unless they want their ass kicked.) There are many gangs in Cleveland that mostly deal drugs and fight other gangs. Drugs and illegal substances are quite common here. The sports teams of Cleveland are the Indians (Baseball, was good in the 90s, offends Native Americans everywhere and has a big fluffy purple mascot named Slider,) Cavaliers (Basketball, now made famous by LeBron James and Usher,) Browns (Football, now returned and worse than ever,) Barons(Hockey, replaced the Lumber Jacks,) and Force (Soccer.)

If you go to Cleveland, you have to go to the Jake (Jacob's Field), the Q (used to be Gund Arena,) Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, and the Hard Rock at least once. There's also something called the Warehouse District, West Side Market, Tower City, and other stuff if you're feeling adventurous.

Sorry if this sucked, I just thought Cleveland needed a detailed definition.
"We're here with C-Town's finest."

"LeBron James lived Akron before the Cleveland Cavaliers snatched him up."

"What it do, C-Town?"

"If you are a woman in Cleveland, bring pepper spray, because many get raped here. Other then that it's pretty nice."
