The same guy who made that fake Cleveland "tourism" video has found eleven more things that suck about Cleveland, like "Our enconomy's based on LeBron James." He seems to know a lot about Cleveland, but these are too funny not to be extended to other cities:
To be fair to Cleveland, every American city has weird ugly sculptures like that. (Via The Daily What.)

Rip Torn's eyes would barely open and his face was a ravaged, haggard, stubbly mess. His chapped lips stuck together, and the pavement had left a red, mottled impression against his cheek. He looked around blearily, barely able to focus...

Hi-yo!

These are WAY funnier than they have any right to be.
and this can apply to the whole of the Midwest - and I can say that because I'm from - and widely traveled within - the Midwest.
(except Chicago ~ because Chicago's the best.)
Score = 7
Damn straight! CHI owns the Midwest. Although I'm not sure we want it. Actually, we don't. We're like an oasis in a sea of mom jeans and pickup trucks.
Score = 7
To be fair, most of the homes where I live too look like a Scooby Doo ghost town.

Originally being from Ohio, I can attest that Cleveland really isn't all that bad. But, with that being said, it's totes possible to by a house for the price of a VCR there.
Score = 2
yea - shit's extra cheap in the entire state of Ohio for whatever reason. My friends and I got a NICE apartment in Cincinnati a few years ago - 3 bedrooms for $600/month!
in Chicago that same apartment would be like $2000+/month
those guys in OHIO need some stimulus money. yesterday.
Score = 1
But location-wise, Cincinnati v. Chicago is really no competition. You couldn't charge $2000 for a castle in Cincinnati, mostly because it's Cincinnati.
Score = 3
I resent the detroit comment and maintain that cleveland is worse. ohio is the worst. in general.
Score = -2
Fourth'd. Detroit owns Cleveland. Ohio is definitely the worst.
Also, I don't know if you have or haven't, but please don't jump on the Detroit-bashing wagon if you haven't spent time there.
Score = 0
I guess you guys didn't hear. Chrysler went bankrupt. Detroit is done.
Sorry.

Second that. Detroit has produced some of history's finest musicians; I can't think of one from Cleveland (anyone?). Gabe should've written this one....
Score = 5
Third'd. But wait! Bone Thugs! Nevermind,

Pere Ubu is from Cleveland. Um...Trent Reznor (ugh) and Scott Weiland (ugh)? Also, I think the Beatles were from Cleveland.

I'm not really sure any of those qualify as fake tourism videos...

Aw, I always loved inexplicable stamp sculpture. Not because I thought it was art, but because it was a giant stamp and that amused me greatly as a child.
