text: As much as I appreciate people that use ridiculously outdated terms, or a guy that's still stuck listening to 80's metal and has a mullet, or an older person who's references to pop culture stop in the 90's I still have to ask where have you been for the last decade?. Longmont has about a dozen breweries, a cidery(boulder doesn't even have one yet), and its own distillery. Every year about a half dozen Boulder businesses move to Longmont because Boulder is crazy expensive to the point that its become painfully elitist.
  We even have a ridiculously nice outdoor mall with large stone work/water features/even swings and shit. It has Vietnamese, French, New American Cuisine restaurants, a big ass Whole Foods, one of the largest liquor stores in that state, and it's own Colorado owned entertainment complex like a lil' Colorado based Dave n Busters.  I guess Longmont does have some super middle class american restaurants like Red Lobster you can look down on, but Methmont...Really?
