To Janielle:

and anyone else that spent some real time in Red Deer

Does this ever bring back memories (I put my favorites in bold)
by some guy on Facebook.

You Know You're From Red Deer When...

...You've had at least 5 rig pigs try to pick you or your girlfriend up while hitting up Branleys

...You never know when to cheer for the Flames or the Oilers in the fear that if you cheer for the wrong team you'll get jumped.

...Your claim to fame is that you have met Ron Maclean and you think he is a saint

...You know not to go to parties in Innisfail or Lacombe unless you have more than 25 friends from either town

...You know that the city of Red Deer has more restauraunts and liquor stores per square mile than any other city in canada

...Your proud of the fact that at one point we owned the record for the longest played hockey game.

...Sylvan lake is sweet...but only in the summer time

...Cow tipping is bullshit...it doesnt actually happen

...The downtown bar scene is a crazy amount of fun which is really weird considering how weak the bars are

...You've been tobbagganing at michener hill and/or crossed the street and/or went down the slopes of what used to be woodlea ski hill

...Your scared of getting mugged in the superstore parking lot ... might be the hutterittes drinking in their grain truck or the drug addict that just crossed the street from the Big 'A'

...A place called "riverside meadows" is still and will always be referred to as lower fairview a.k.a. the ghetto, lower harlem, ... I grew up in that ghetto!

...Rosco was at one of my birthdays ... school activities ... etc ... When I was a kid I thought all clowns were named Rosco

...If you ever partied at Dope Road or Hell...or hid your booze in trees by Bower ponds before Canada Day festivities.

...If you have participated in underage drinking and/or sexual activity in the kin canyon area, and possibly even made out in the rocket ship.

...You know you are from Red Deer when you groan when people tell you they have been to RD and have really only seen Gasoline Alley.

...You know you are from RD when some one says dead reer and you actually understand what they mean.
