Democracy is a beautiful thing. When we asked you to tell us what you liked most about Concord, you had no qualms about being funny, snarky or making no sense at all.
Here are some of the best responses we received. Even though they didn’t make it into the prestigious top three, they hold a special place in our hearts.

“Waiting at the Capitol Center for the Arts.” (Waiting for what? Your tickets? The show to start? A bathroom stall to open up?)

“My mom.”
Best place to grab a beer
“Happy hour.” (It’s 5 o’clock somewhere.)
