use grass? Are you in one of the wildest cities?
We look back on the years after high school and think, what did we do? Party all night, roll to work with a slight hangover and maybe still have the club stamp on hand. Most people grow out of it, but not everyone. The perfect example is Las Vegas…the 24-hour city where you can gamble away your worries. Drink? use grass? Are you in one of the wildest cities?
Data from the Online Betting Guide ranks the cities with the wildest behavior and you might be surprised.
The data captures behavior across five categories: alcohol use, marijuana use, cocaine use, casinos per capita, and overall number of strip clubs. Sounds like a bro thing, but everyone liked the Hangover movie. These industries (excluding cocaine) generate approximately $705.2 billion in revenue each year, with alcohol being the largest and strip clubs being the smallest.
There are currently 23 recreational marijuana states and 40 medical marijuana states. All states have alcohol, but open bottles are allowed on the Las Vegas Strip and in New Orleans. States that are most appealing to strip clubs include West Virginia, Florida, Nevada, Louisiana, and Oregon. Only two states have completely banned casinos: Utah and Hawaii.
The biggest drinking city is, surprisingly, Milwaukee. The city has a long history with alcohol. The original beer town was home to the Blatz, Pabst, Schlitz and Miller OG breweries.
