NOT a native Coloradoan, but living there now. I pronounce it "pweb-lo". I have heard radio commercials where they say "pwayb-lo". How does your neighbor say it?

I got Chicago first then Rockford and Aurora (two towns outside of Chicago). No surprises there. My coworkers tell me all the time they hear my accent. LOVE IT!

I was pretty impressed with my husband--he attempted answering it to try guess the answers for New Orleans since he lived there for a year and was spot on! He got New Orleans, Baton Rogue and then somewhere else nearby.
