Re: Bellevue Waterpark (Highway 34 and 75)
I did some research and also looked up the prices the park in TX is charging and its a little high. A regular day was $44 for an adult, but they offer several special promotion days. On Mondays for instance the first person was $20 and a second is only $10. Then on Thursdays you can get 6 people in...

Re: OKC 2nd Tallest Skyscraper in the USA
I will go ahead and say it. OKC has already had too much destruction with the bombing in the 90's. They do not need to build another target that could be a focal point at some point in time for the wrong reasons. to be fair, they shouldn't have built the Freedom tower in NYC either then. That being...

I think Raising Cane's entire menu is just a delivery system for Cane's Sauce. It's frowned upon to just get a large beverage cup, fill it with Cane's Sauce, and just drink it. However, shoveling that same amount of Cane's Sauce into your mouth using Chicken Fingers as scoops is entirely acceptable...
