    For a moment, to be from Spokane is a privilege, and even if you’re from a desperate town you become, if only for a short while, a winner.

    lmao, good lord, right in the heart.

    clearly the writer has not spent much time on the south hill, clearly.

    South hill is nice but spokane is pretty ghetto. Running into gonzaga fans is the worst. The most entitled non educated fans I have ever been around.

    Within 5 years, S. Regal will be a shithole housing project. All that's missing is a Wal Mart.

    The white people will move back into the lower south hill. The gays already have.

    Shit author, shit article. I'm no Spokane apologist but the whole premise is wrong. It reeks of "I drove north on Hamilton for 10 miles and it looked bad". No shit.

    I have only been there once, in 2015, to cover a Woodinville playoff game against the eventual State champs Gonzaga Prep. The city was a real bleak place.
