On the "what makes a park' question: I think the UK is much more rigid in its legalities for what is required for geographical entities: the requirements to be a city, a town, a village. In the US, in general you can call yourself whatever you want, and it's legal, and the same is true of parks. It may seem rather silly to call a small circle of land with one tree a park, but the city declared it a park, so it's a park.

Facts

[@michelleb7399]

I’m originally from Portland. My childhood idea of a “park” is that it has to have a playground. I thought my family was teasing me when they showed me that park. But, also a large State Park (Champoeg, if your a local) was likewise a disappointment when my dad took my sister and me there. Lots of trees and grass but NO playground.

[@JD-tn5lz]

Nope, not true. At least up here in Alaska. There are actual classifications what a community can call itself in line with the taxing and legal responsibilities it has. Basically, can't just tax unless it assumes certain responsibilities. Much better system, keeps nepotism and cronyism down to a minimum when you erase counties and every little town decides it should have it's own public works, police, etc.

[@Dutch_Uncle]

@@JD-tn5lz Alaska learned some lessons from the older southern sisters. Municipal boundaries are large, so there is not the situation of Chicago and Saint Louis, with a core city surrounded by independent municipalities guarding their independence.

As a Pennsylvanian with relatives in the vicinity of Centralia, I will enlighten you about its history. Centralia was a coal mining town of around 4,000 to 5,000 residents. They did not have a landfill, because the town was built on top of the mines. It wouldn't be safe. Every now and again they would put all the recent trash in a depression in the ground and burn it, as the local fire service stood by keeping watch. In 1962 they thought it was done burning, so they sprayed it down with water to make sure it was out. In the morning it was discovered to have reignited. The depression they had been burning the trash in was connected to a portion of the coal mine. The coal, underground, was now burning at will. They tried several times to suffocate, or otherwise extinguish the coal fire. All efforts failed. By 1965 almost all residents had been forced to move because of the toxic CO2 fumes coming from the mines. There are still 10, or so, residents who refused to move. The government didn't force them to move, but they cannot will their land or homes to their heirs. The estimates are that the fires will continue burning for another 200 years, or more. So, no, there is no benefit to the fires burning, and no, they can't put them out. They must wait until any residual coal deposits in the area are burned out! You can visit the area, but not by car, as the roads are all melted and unsafe, as they could collapse into a burning section of the mine at any time. There are a number of videos on KZbin, just type in Centralia, PA. You'll have your choice!

You might want to view a few videos of Bush Pilot fling to give you a sense of what it is like to live up there. Nimble strong small aircraft with there big Balloon tires to allow them to land on almost anything. The big jets fly into the bigger airports with supply's and mail. Everything has to be shipped via Air, much larger and very heavy items get transported by the big cargo aircraft, or ships. A friend of mine moved up there over 29 years ago. And has never been back down to New York. He is a pilot, say's he fell in love with that type of living. Anchorage, Fairbanks and Juneau are the major airfields and ports of entry. And once you land there, it's the Bush pilot and the small company's who will get you to all other areas that are un accessible by roads. And yes if you want to just go hunting, camping. You need to book a flight by one of the bush pilots. Oh by the way. This has been going on way before I was born. I'm 67.

To answer your question about The Lake Pontchartrain Causeway (locally here it's just called "The Causeway") was an effort to expand the metropolitan area of New Orleans. Since New Orleans sits in a "bowl" (below sea level), it is impossible to expand east or west into the bayous that surround on all sides (the levy system is what keeps New Orleans free from the brackish waters that surround the local metro area). There use to be a ferry service back in the early 1800's that continued into the mid-1930's that served as a mode of transportation from the "northshore" to the "southshore" (referring to Lake Pontchatrain's northern and southern shores), but with the invention of the automobile, there was only one way to get to New Orleans, and that was the US 11 bridge on the eastern shores of the lake. To reduce the travel time, a continuous bridge was constructed across the lake (from it's northern most point (Mandeville) to it's southern most point (Metairie), thus making it the longest continuous bridge in the world. Yes, there is a point where you can not see any land on the horizon (with the exception of heading southbound, where you can see the very top of the skyline of New Orleans tallest buildings). I recommend if you make a trip to the states, drive or ride on The Causeway.

Paid for season tickets for the Baltimore Ravens, that was $1600 for 2 seats in nose bleed section, $80 a seat x 10 games.. Ft Bliss, the Army base in El Paso Texas is so large, you can fit Rhode Island in it 2x. Juneau, Alaska is only accessible by boat or airplane.

[@connorennis5164]

As a Packer fan myself, I think season tickets are about $1000 depending on the seats. But normally, whenever I go to a game at Lambeau Field, I'm paying about $200-$250 per seat for a single game.

The fact that Delaware had no airports then explains why President Joe Biden was legendary for taking Amtrak from home in Delware to Washington DC and back home go Delaware every day after he was first elected to the US Senate. His wife tragically suddenly passed away right after he was elected. He wanted to make sure he had dinner every night with his young children. He wanted to make sure his job did not prevent him from being there for his children.

If you come to US sometime from April- October you should visit the start of Mississippi River and walk across.. then visit the mouth in Louisiana.

If you make it to NC I highly recommend checking out Biltmore Estate in Asheville (owned by descendants of the Vanderbilts, once one of the richest families in the US), the Outerbanks lighthouses along the eastern coast (there are 5 of them and one is near the Museum of flight where the Wright Brothers flew their plane), and the Blue Ridge Parkway if you come in the fall. The mountains turn beautiful shades of red, orange, and brown with the season change.

From what Ik about the mine on fire is that the fire started underground by coal and there was no way for firefighters to get down into the mine to put it out it would risk more life’s by putting it out than just letting it burn I’m not completely sure if this is all true but it’s stuff I’ve learned over the years of hearing about it

He made a blunder on Kansas City being in MO. It's true, but not exclusively, as there's also a Kansas City, KS at about 1/3 the size of the MO part, and they're separated by the MO River. Aside from dogsled and snowmobile/4-wheeler, the only options to get to/from Juneau, AK, are by Alaska State Ferry, or by air, since to the east are the very rugged Coastal Mtns.and glaciers, and to the west is what the cruise lines call the Inside Passage--water. Notice that W. Virginia also has a 2nd. panhandle on the NE--the only state with that distinction. In Louisiana is the bridge mentioned--the Pontchartrain (PAHN-chuh-train Causeway. Minnesota's NW Angle isn't the only oddball place here. There are also Pt. Roberts, WA, and Hyder, Alaska.

The Atchafalaya River Basin Bridge on the western side of Louisiana is 18 miles long. I believe it is the 3rd longest bridge in the US so the south side of Louisiana has the number 1 and number 3 longest bridges in the country.

A fact about my state is that it was extremely divided about secession from the US in Civil War. Tennessee was the last state to secede and the first to be re-admitted. My state was the only one to be mentioned about Civil War. No mention of South Carolina, North Carolina, Virginia, Georgia, Florida, Alabama, Mississippi, Arkansas and Texas seceding from the Union.

The Causeway bridge (as it’s referenced here in Nola) is actually 25-26 miles technically because it’s partially 0.5-1 miles over marshland on both sides that isn’t included depending on tides. It’s pretty cool though used to commute to work on it when I lived in Mandeville which is on one side and Metairie (a New Orleans “neighboorhood”) is in the other. They also have the twin span which is just south of the causeway bridge which goes from New Orleans to Slidell which is 8.5 miles long. Also previously commuted to Nola for work when I lived on the other side. Funny fact too there’s a bridge on US-11 that runs parallel to the twin span that is the exact same length. So Louisiana technically has 3 of the top 15 longest non-stop bridges bridges on water in the world and all lead to the exact same Parrish ( Parrish means county) that Parrish is St. Tammany Parrish.

[@sadiedol4413]

I used to drive on the Lake Pontchartrain Causeway twice a week for like 2 years 🙃 takes forever and every few miles there's a turning lane large enough for two cars. That way if you change your mind of there's an emergency, you can always merge to the other side and go back. Otherwise you're stuck going one direction for almost 40 minutes

That'd what happens when a shitty franchise gets a top star, Lakers before lebron came to LA tickets were probably sold for $100 each when he came to LA they jumped up like $200-300 more, and the nba all star game last season had tickets going for like $3,000 When Kawhi Leonard joined the clippers their tickets jumped from $10 to like $50. I'm being ssrcasitmc here I don't know their ticket prices I just don't care

One particular mistake here, there are actually TWO Kansas City's...Kansas City, Kansas & Kansas City, Missouri. The NFL Kansas City Chiefs & MLB Kansas City Royals are in Kansas City, Missouri. The MLS Sporting Kansas City is in Kansas City, Kansas next door to Kansas Speedway where NASCAR races. I live in the State of Illinois, which became the 18th state to join the Union in 1818, making it 203 years old in 2021.

[@catgirl6803]

I read that the wait for Ravens season tickets is 20 years. Ravens, along with many other teams have PSL’s which stands for Permanent Seat License (or some call it Personal Seat License). You basically buy your seat like a piece of real estate guaranteeing you season tickets each year for your seats. You can then sell your PSL privately or to one of the 3000 people on the waiting list. Cost ranges from $1500-$8000 or higher if you want it badly enough. If you don’t buy your season tickets you forfeit your psl. If you want to go to an individual game you buy tix from a psl owner and they’re usually $90-$250 a seat depending on the game. They can be over $500 if they’re playing Steelers or New England.

I am from AK and spent many years in Juneau. No roads does not pose an issue as the population is only about 30k. We used to have a great marine ferry system, but they have for some unknown political reason defunded it mostly now so it is becoming problematic to travel around the southeast and get to the small towns. The other option is small float planes and regular small planes which are common (ak has the most pilots per capita as a lot of people learn to fly small planes) but it more expensive and way less fun that the ferry used to be. Supplies come in on big barges in shipping containers. Many like the no roads, as it keeps people away. ..of course that does not work anymore as tourism with huge cruise ships in the summer has taken over the downtown area and quality of life has suffered as it have become one big disney like theme park it seems.

Landwise, yes - Canada is larger than the US, but has a relatively small population. And, 90% of Canadians live w/in 100 miles of the US. Average NFL season tix - about $150.
