How Wyoming Residents Defend Their Towns Against Criticism

It's safe to say that Wyomingites can get defensive when outsiders speak poorly of a Wyoming town or region. They'll, as they say, 'ride for the brand!' On the other hand, when there is a heated conversation between two or more Wyomingites, they'll also defend their town or region as being better than others.

We see it on social media all the time. It's like having rivalries between the offense, defense, special teams, and coaching staff on a football team. When it's gameday, we're all on the same team, but in practice during the week, everyone is on their own.

I found a social media post that ranked the most miserable place to live in Wyoming. The post was from an account "WyoStrong," which claims the page is "Everything we love about Wyoming," and the comments on the post are exactly as I mentioned above.

On game day, we're all a big Wyoming Strong state, but when there's no outside threat, it's on like Donkey Kong.

It's hilarious to read the comments and see people trying to campaign for specific towns. Especially if those towns aren't on the list, or if their town is on the list, they'd rather add another town in their place.

I'll give you the 15 Most Miserable Places to Live in Wyoming, then let you read the comments on the post below.

15 Douglas
14 Torrington
13 Pinedale
12 Rawlins
11 Lovell
10 Rock Springs
9 Gillette
8 Newcastle
7 Greybull (spelled with an 'A' on the post)
6 Evanston
5 Evansville
4 Bar Nunn
3 Mills
2 Green River
1 Glenrock

If you notice, Casper isn't on the list, but all the surrounding towns are. Cheyenne, Laramie, Jackson, Cody, and Sheridan were also all left off.

You've seen people on socials say, "I'm just here for the comments," and this is definitely one of those moments. Without further delay...the post that has Wyoming split.
