I’ve met a lot of people across the US, but never seen the animosity between county vs city in St. Louis.
You see this parochialism throughout Missouri and it’s a massive detriment to the growth of the state and university.
In a recent interview, Drink spoke about how the state is like 7 little fiefdoms. No wonder he wanted to leave after a few years here.
So, why is this? Why constantly shoot yourselves in the foot because you’re in the boot heel versus Kansas City? Or county versus Joplin?
