We Got Sports Betting Kiosks Inside Of Grocery Stores, Proving Once Again Cincinnati Is The Most Underrated City In America

I don't know how else to say this. Cincinnati ain't that bad! I know I'm not from here originally, I'm an East coast guy, but I've lived in Cincinnati since 2010. It's basically all I know at this point and have become my home. I'll go to bat for this city as it not being what everyone thinks of it or what it used to be. Now fast forward to today and look at what we have here.

Sports betting kiosks in grocery stores. Genius. We already could drink in our stores and now we get to add this? It's beautiful. Think of it - especially if you're married or have kids. You get assigned the task of having to run out to the store to buy something, because you always need something with kids around. It's impossible not to have everything. Maybe it's bad timing and there's a solid A-10 basketball game you want to watch. You gotta play your cards here right, do you want to waste it on George Mason vs George Washington or maybe Kentucky vs Alabama? You pick. 

Now you get a little bit of heaven sneaking out for a nice quiet ride to the grocery store and can delay the trip even longer with an extra *ahem* stop. Then you look like the good guy coming home with the groceries and can overhype some annoying person in the grocery store. Win-win where I come from. 

As for Cincinnati? I don't understand why people shit on it so much besides it being a part of a flyover state and it's easy to do. Does it have the best food in the world? No, but Skyline coneys are delicious. There's also plenty of good food. It's almost like every other city in the world where you have suburbs, the downtown area, a bunch of bars, breweries, a little bit of everything. Oh the one difference is it's dirt cheap here. Nothing makes me smile and breaks my heart seeing my pals in Chicago ask me every time about the difference in rent and house payments. 

Now, if you don't mind me. I got some errands to run.
