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?"
