Petition Draws Support To Rename Columbus, Ohio, ‘Flavortown’

[DAILYWIRE] Flavortown.That’s what thousands of people want to rename Columbus, Ohio, according to a new petition posted on change.org.

And the petition poster sounds serious.

"Beloved Buckeyes one and all," wrote someone identifying himself as Tyler Woodbridge. "Columbus is an amazing city, but one whose name is tarnished by the very name itself. Its namesake, Christopher Columbus, is in The Bad Place because of all his raping, slave trading, and genocide. That’s not exactly a proud legacy."

"Why not rename the city Flavortown? The new name is twofold. For one, it honors Central Ohio’s proud heritage as a culinary crossroads and one of the nation’s largest test markets for the food industry," Woodbridge added. "Secondly, chef-lebrity Guy Fieri was born in Columbus, so naming the city in honor of him (he’s such a good dude, really) would be superior to its current nomenclature. "

#9 Guy Fieri may have a trade mark on that name. He uses it all the time on his show.

#10 I used to like watching Guy on teevee a lot. I don't watch teevee anymore. I'm glad I really never had to choke down any of his "cuisine."

#11 This seems appropriate. Not because it is a "good" idea so much as it is a very "Ohio" idea. We here in Michigan would love to see our southern neighbor finally outdoing us in stupidity this year.

#12 Ohio. Elected John Kay-Sick to the US Senate. Ohio. Look for the video of angry red head guy saying the US "deserved" 9/11.

#13 At one time, back in the 1970s, Columbus was known as the Quaalude Capital of America. Flavortown is probably more acceptable. There is already a Buckeye Town in AZ.

Too many left-wing spineless politicians have caved in to these anarchists who want to tear down everything. These politicians have just thrown gasoline on the fire.

#14 Not the Bee.

The Flavortown/Fieri got me, but I should have known better in The Age of Boaty McBoatface.
