Seattle's name is derived from the name of Chief Seattle

Seattle has been the birthplace of a number of companies, including Starbucks Coffee, Amazon.com, and Boeing.

Seattle's nickname is "The Emerald City"

Seattle is one connecting point of the world's longest floating bridge.

It's the most literate city in the U.S.

Seattle might be the only city that can claim to be built on top of another city. After the Great Fire of 1889, citizens raised the street level and started over

When it comes to live music and performances per capita, Seattle is second in the U.S. only to New York City.

Seattle's annual Hempfest is the largest "Legalize It" festival in the country, and is a favorite among Seattle cops due to the general friendly, no-violence atmosphere.

More folks bike to work here than in any other city in the U.S. - and Seattle was the first city to put cops on bikes, too.

The Farmer’s Market at Pike’s Place Market is the longest continuously operating farmer’s market in the US.

Seattle has the highest percentage of residents with a college degree or higher.

In 1961, the restaurant atop the Space Needle became the country’s first revolving eatery.

10. You can get all the way from Pittsburgh to Washington, D.C. - that's 245 miles - via a bike and running trail called the Great Allegheny Passage and Chesapeake and Ohio Canal towpath trail. Should you feel compelled to try it, you'll pass landmarks like Frank Lloyd Wright's Fallingwater, one of two surviving cast-iron truss bridges in all of North America, an abandoned railway tunnel called the Big Savage Tunnel, Antietam Battlefield, Harpers Ferry, and Georgetown University. Sounds like a pretty sweet trip to me.

Seattle is a shithole, made even more so by JohnG's presence.
