re: Missouri...Cox Sucker Days?? Really??

I live 7 miles from Nixa. They do Sucker Days every year where they fry sucker fish all day long. Cox Health is the premier medical facility in the Springfield MO area, so it's conceivable. But I doubt it, even though I think it would be brilliant in terms of marketing the event. The fried fish is incredible, btw.

If I had to guess, razorologist lives in or near Springfield and Nixa (Jason Bourne's home, by the way), he wanted to start a cool thread attempting to show how backward MO is, and he passed off a long running joke as truth.
