Stockyard Queen: OK, RT explained it to his bonehead wife.
Stockyard Queen: Guess what the third most drunken city in the U.S. is! Billings, Montana! Yay!
Stockyard Queen: I'm surprised it's not higher, actually.
RT: It would be one thing if Billings had some interesting nightlife scene or even some good bars. But it does not. Mostly a lot of broken down and sad watering holes for those who have had too much already.
RT: Basically, Billings makes you WANT to get drunk and drive your car into a tree.
Stockyard Queen: It has one nice restaurant, though. And it has the PBR every April.
Stockyard Queen: Some of my best friends live in Billings.
MT Barn Cat: Don't forget the PHOTOS, JM. We NEED them.
