A brief, non-sports related interlude for your Wednesday morning. Because their interns needed something to do, Forbes.com ranked the best cities for singles in the United States. Many factors that decided the overall rankings (job growth, nightlife, cost of living, etc.) San Francisco-Oakland was ranked best for singles. Providence, RI was ranked worst out of 40 cities. Buffalo ranked 31st. However, one category that determined the overall ranking was the ever-amorphous “Coolness.”

Buffalo is 15th coolest city for you single guys and gals. (Las Vegas was #1, Columbus, OH was #40).

A brief list of cities Buffalo beat out in “Coolness”:

Miami (#16)
Austin (#18)
New Orleans (#19)
San Antonio (#20)
St. Louis (#21)
Virginia Beach-Norfolk (#23)
Pittsburgh (#24)
Houston (#28)
Phoenix (#30)

Who needs sexy, young kids in tight-fitting clothing when the alternative is bleu cheese and Hiroshima-like muffin tops?

Go Bills.
