    Virginia Beach city, VA

    population: 440,098

    # 35 in the USA

    I don't know what this city is notable for, so I'll just post some facts:

    in 1989- Hundreds of college students become intoxicated and riot in Virginia Beach over Labor Day weekend, causing the greatest civil disturbance in the area's history, and resulting in nearly 500 arrests.

    Interesting Facts about Virginia Beach:

    Virginia Beach is the most populous and largest city in Virginia.

    Virginia Beach has the longest pleasure beach in the world, according to the Guinness Book of World Records.

    It also has the longest bridge-tunnel complex in existence- the Chesapeake Bay Bridge-Tunnel.

    Virginia Beach is home to the Christian Broadcasting Network, and Pat Robertson's 700 Club is taped here.

    Navy SEALs, a 90's movie starring Charlie Sheen, did most of its filming in Virginia Beach and the surrounding areas.

    Virginia Beach has a "No Bad Behavior" ordinance that prohibits public drunkenness and lewd behavior.

    so, is it OK??

    Alright, sloppet. I will award you only 5 points for your first question. The ranking of the size of Virginia Beach is wrong. But, you did get the bonus right, so you'll be earning a total of 10 pts. Great work! 4.gif

    By way of a "Thank You" gift, we'd like to send you our STEX Collector's DVD. It's some of the best buildings, lots, maps and mods collected for you over the years. Check out the STEX Collections for more info.

    Each donation helps keep Simtropolis online, open and free!

    Thank you for reading and enjoy the site!
