Cause, those places are way better than Vegas. Expecially Springfield, nice and Green, not 118 degrees, well, I will have to put up with those dang Patriots fans, but I can just wear my packers jersey to school! OH what about Madison Wisconsin or Green Bay! IN THE YEAR 2525, IF MAN IS STILL ALIVE, IF WOMEN CAN SURVIVE!
