Hey, my dad was born there! They had a huge farm when he was a kid (go figure). He said the winter he was about 10, they got snowed in their house for two months. They had to jump out of the 2nd floor window to get out to feed their cows. The wind piled up the snowdrifts as high as the house. Luckily they had enough supplies in the basement to last. They moved to Arkansas the next spring.

I think Nebraska is the one place in the US that is Flatter than the North Dakota, the week I was there, there where 4 tornado's and many more storm warnings, but ya Omaha has a few nice courses, if your not a corn husker just wear some Oklahoma gear and you will be hated even more lol.

they got one decent golf course on the northeast side of town. its kind of a big town but feels like a small town. in mid august they got a hell of a car show weekend. and theres usually some tri state cage fighting going on. and they have a semi pro team that plays in wayne.

It's a nice place; my grandparents lived there for many years. It was Johnny Carson's home town and he was a generous benefactor to many Norfolk-area causes over the years.

A kid I met in HS lived in Nebraska and his exact words were: "The coolest thing about Nebraska, is it's Aksarben backwards."
