What are some cool but little known facts about where you live or come from?
don't know that historic stuff but these are important too. See it is all about food, food, food.
# 1-Kogel's Viennas-best hotdog for coneys or alone.
# 2-Highest standard for ingredients in hot dogs, no by products. Other companies have to manufacture here because they have to raise their standards.
# 3-Vernors gingerale-spoiled for anything else.
# 4-ME (lol) hahahaha
Hugh Downs, Neil Armstrong, Ruby Dee, and Doris Day are from Ohio and Jeff Dahmer spent part of his childhood in Bath. Ohio ranks fourth in lime producing states. Cleveland had the first traffic light, Cincinnati the first ambulance, Hang on Sloppy is the state rock song, the Wright borthers were from Dayton, hotdogs were invented here, the first car was also made in Ohio.
