Okay. I will bite.
I lived in Fort Worth for 10 years and Dallas for 7. This should qualify me as somewhat of an authority on the subject. Dallas was fun in my 20s, but, yes, Cowtown gets the nod. Much, much better city. Let me count the ways
1. No $30,000 pretend millionaires who are upside down on their BMW loan, trying to impress you with their loft, clothes, and drinks. Meanwhile... they will be paying that Visa card off for life. Mac/WSP/whoever you are today called it correctly. Dallas is full of pretentious douche-bags.
2. Far superior museums. Far superior.
3. The TCU/Colonial/Botanical Gardens/Forest Park area is much prettier than anything in Dallas.
4. Compare the downtowns. Need I say more?
5. Three Words: Joe. T. Garcia's.
6. Traveling East-West across the city is actually possible.
7. Fort Worth actually has an idenity. Dallas just has concrete.
8. Out of town guests? You have a week's worth of activities in Fort Worth. Um, in Dallas, once you have finished the JFK musuem, I guess you could show them the High Five.
9. Cops on bikes and horseback in downtown FW. Cops who are corrupt in Dallas.
10. Dallas has people who have lived there their entire lives, and who will brag that they have *never* been to Fort Worth. Bleg. Fort Worth has people who recognize the greatness of their own city, but who will venture out and explore other places.
I am sure there are more, but these come to top of mind.
