    What do you mean? It is a tourism promotional video. I still own real estate 3 blocks from that ice cream place so yes, it is the coolest place ever!

    I saw hot dog stands and ice cream stands in that video, but no lemonade stands. Better stay back east...

    Denver is a lot nicer than it was 10-15 years ago.

    The microbrew scene in Denver is saturated. I expect a crash in the next couple years as people start to come to terms with the fact that they really don't like beer.

    I haven't had a beer in 2+ years. It doesn't make me feel good. One by one, several of my beer drinking friends have also stopped drinking beer.

    You are a real trend-setter! I'm sure the last few centuries have just been a fad.

    Denver is a great town now. I moved there 20 years ago and it sucked and I moved away, but now when I visit, there's all kinds of stuff to do. Tons of good breweries and restaurants, I rarely go to the same one twice. Would never move there again, but visiting is good.

    It caught me pretty off guard during normal conversation, but still to this day, and I think it is actually pretty true…

    "Is Colorado a pretty diverse place?"

    "Yeah, as long as you're white."

    And it's true - there is a huge diversity of white people there. If that doesn't make sense to you, you haven't lived in Colorado, or maybe have only lived in one place in CO.

    700 years of human history are running you over. Beer. It's wet bread that gives you a buzz.

    The hoppy microbrew explosion hasn't been going for hundreds of years.

    Actually, it has. It's almost always been that way, until, well, Budweiser.

    Maybe Denver does suck, because the microbrew scene nationwide seems to have shifted away from overhopping everything at least a year ago. Breweries in the PNW are churning out delicious European styles that absolutely have hundreds of years of history behind them. Are you guys really that far behind the curve along the front range?

    And lets not forget the centuries year old history of IPA. But by all means, you live in Denver, so you are clearly too cool for beer. What's the trendy drink in Broulder and Denver these days, gluten free fermented anal gland secretions with a twist of blood orange?

    I'll take legal weed over diversity anyday.
    Don't hate us for being white, beautiful, and stoned.

    At least you can look down on SLC and Boise when that diversity thing pops up.

    Funny comment up there somewhere. "Most diverse collection of white people." That's a riot. New York City laughs.

    We got lots of Latinos. And good eats. Oh, and we got a free country here.
