What happens out in the lots, stays out in the lots.
Hollywood making an action movie: easy! Hollywood making three or more action movies in a franchise: difficult. Therefore, I present the Mount Rushmore of Action Movie Franchises. John Wick (2014 – TBD) This franchise is absolutely killin’ it. They have produced three incredible action movies with them all receiving an 86 or higher on Rotten […]
The following list is not the Mount Rushmore of all sneakers. I am far too new to the shoe game to be an authority on that, and style is so subjective. Instead, this is the Mount Rushmore of sneakers I, personally, own. After you check it out, share yours! Tweet the sneaker monument in your […]
It’s Mount Rushmore week here at TGS and I’ve decided to do a Mount Rushmore of infuriating TV show endings. Before we get started: if you think “Lost” will make this list, you are WRONG.

Following a fun debate at work about town squares in my own region, I decided to create a bracket of 64 for Main Streets and Town Squares in Iowa. These Main Streets and Town Squares have been the center of commerce, life and history for these communities across the state. Due to the sheer number […]
Season two of the hit Netflix dating series “Love is Blind” has certainly kept viewers on their toes. Over the last two weeks there were love triangles, stupid fights, skeptical family members, and lots of tacky, gold stemware. With the finale about to drop, some writers at The Tailgate Society predicted who will say “I […]
