"Cincinnati" Cincinnati by TRimer

Cincinnati earned itself the nickname "porkopolis" by theing the world's largest pork-packing center back at the turn of the century. The name was coined around 1835, when the city was American's chief hog packing center, and herds of pigs traveled the streets. This title was later bestowed on Chicago. Cincinnatian's are so proud of the nickname that they hold an annual Flying Pig Marathon.
Cincinnati got its name when the 2-year-old town of Losantiville on the Ohio River was renamed by the Northwest Territory's first governor Gen. Arthur St. Clair. He called it Cincinnati after the Society of Cincinnati formed by officers of the Continental army at the end of the Revolution.
- Pros:small, clean city with good baseball and football teams
- Cons:some of the suburbs (and airport) are in Kentucky
