Chris Amon, Ahrre’s
“I came from a town of like 15,000 people. Our claim to fame was that we got the Walmart. There’s such wide open spaces in South Dakota. A lot of easterners get scared there because you can see for 30 miles in every direction. I like thunderstorms, like watching them come in.”

“The boys who come in here are the worst…they’ll come in and ask if we can pierce their ears when they’re obviously not 18. Then they’ll start asking if we can pierce random parts of their bodies…like noses and tongues..and we’re like no…we’re Claire’s.”
Sam Korkmaz, Roman Boutique, Red Lions Football Club
“We used to play [soccer] when I was in Istanbul, in the street. Sometimes we didn’t have soccer balls, so we played with soda cans. I tell my kids when they come to the field so bored: ‘Guys, look at this field. It’s so beautiful!’ You guys don’t realize but all over the world, people are not able to have these things.”
