A relatively small city located in Northwest Illinois. Sadly enough, Freeport is the biggest city in
Stephenson County and the population was 26,
443 at the 2000 census.
In 1858, the second debate between Abraham Lincoln and Stephen A. Douglas took place in Freeport. Whoop.
This city has been named Pretzel City USA, although there is no longer any pretzel bakery OR factory and there is more than one high school in the US (hell, in Illinois) with a pretzel as the mascot.
This town is full of hicks, potheads, and 'gangsters'.
Freeport has a high rate for
teen pregnancy and STD's, because the teenagers located in Freeport have nothing better to do than have sex with each other. In 2009 alone,
246 cases of Chlamydia were reported. Gross.
Freeport's main attraction is the Walmart. Other than the wonderful 24-Hour Walmart, there is nothing to do and nowhere to go.
Example:
Person 1: "I
partied in Freeport the other day, and now it hurts to pee!"
Person 2: "You might want to go
get checked for
Chlamydia, Bro."
Person 3: "...Who's down to go to Walmart?"
