I cant tell because they all sit right outside of hazleton and match the description. I used to audit Borough of Lansford. I figure everywhere in that general area is like that except Jim Thorpe. Beautiful area but my God there is no quality of life. People used to come to the borough meetings for the fights that would breakout. Good crap. My brother lived in Effort for a while back in the day. That wasn't so bad. Close to fishing, hunting, etc...and it was a nice wooded neighborhood which is common around the Poconos. Lansford has forever stained my opinion on NEPA.
May 22, 20214 yr Also went to strip club in white haven once while camping with some college buddies. Interesting to say the least.

May 22, 20214 yr Texas Roadhouse is a small step up from Western Sizzlin. It’ll do in a pinch, but the meat is usually dry with muscles and tendons running through it. The ribs are pretty good though.

Ha.... he should check out Wilkes-Barre...... then step up to Nanticoke...... and then reach new heights in Shickshiny........ he'll be forever talking about the wonders of nepa. . . . . . . . I try to stay as far away from them and the surrounding areas as much as possible.

I even used to camp at Almost Heaven in Forksville. Once went to a redneck bar one night that wasn't the Forksville Inn. There was a couple hammered 19 year old girls with some older dude we called tweak because he broke a pool stick when he missed a shot. It was an interesting experience.

We used to have a hunting cabin in Bradford county, just outside of Canton. Went to a bar one night and this dude gets up and walks into the bathroom and starts screaming at the top of his lungs for like 2 whole minutes. Bartender looks at me and my brother and goes "that's just Dale."

The closest beer distributor to the campground we stayed at in Forksville was in Hillsgrove. You had to step over the guys dog to get in and the dude who owned the place had a hook for a hand. He was known as hookman around the area. NEPA awesomeness.
May 22, 20214 yr Hazleton is a lot more civilized than these other NEPA places you guys are talking about. It's going downhill. But it's not one of those little coal/meth towns. It's actually a city, and more a heroin/fentanyl type of place.

The ribeye dinner is like $18 or something. The family ribeye dinner came with 3 of those steaks, two huge things of your sides, a large thing of salad, and 8 dinner rolls. All for like $42... basically the price of 2 regular ribeye meals but easily 3.5x the amount of total food you would get. Ate steak and potatoes and veggies and salad and roll for like 4-5 days Oh nice, did you microwave the steaks two days later?

I stand by my broader point about the slightly better than mediocre steaks at Texas Roadhouse, but not the slightly concussed way in which I made it.
