In 2010, Columbus was voted as the manliest city in the country. It was also voted the city with the most salad consumed in the country.
Manly men on a diet. We can appreciate that. We can also appreciate these great
Columbus venues to check out:
1.
Nationwide Arena: An indoor multi-purpose facility to take in a
Roger Waters concert or a
Columbus Blue Jackets NHL game
2.
Newport Music Hall: This is "America's Longest Continually Running Rock Club" thanks to a schedule lined with fun performances like
Michael Franti and
Ingrid Michaelson
3.
The LC Pavilion: Nominated for “Best New Major Concert Venue” by Pollstar Magazine in 2001 because only big-name bands such as
311 and
Ben Folds get to grace the stage
4.
Value City Arena: Situated on the campus of the Ohio State University and is the largest arena in the Big Ten Conference for fans to cheer on the
Ohio State Buckeyes or take in a show by the likes of

10.
Funny Bone Comedy Club and Cafe: The place to exhaust your uproarious laughter due in part to LOL-arious shows like
