TOGETHER WITH

Good morning, Wichita!

I hope everyone still has the same amount of fingers as they went into the weekend with.

Since the holiday was on a Friday, this week might seem extra long, but we are here with you, Wichita.

Let's get to it!

Is Wichita boring?

To some, yes. To those people I say, boring people are boring.

In a recent study from FinanceBuzz (cool name, bro), Wichita ranked #2 for the most boring city behind only Jacksonville, Florida.

This study considered a number of categories and metrics such as population makeup, culinary scene, outdoor activities, nightlight, and things to do.

The two biggest lagging indicators for Wichita were food and tourism. I don’t think they’ve been to Wichita because I think we have a ton of great food here.

What do you think?

If you’ve been to any sort of cocktail event or competition in town, you’ve likely seen Nathan Thurnau from Good Company.
