Choosing a "Least Favorite" place is almost as difficult as choosing a "Favorite Place". I think this is because I try not to spend time in places that I truly dislike, or rather, I zone out the place if i really don't like it. One place, however, that I've never really likes, yet have been forced to spend a lot of time in, is Huntington Beach, CA. Dozens of surf contests a year are held in HB, and as a competitive surfer, this means many-a-long-weekend have been spent down there, surrounded by tourists. I feel like HB attracts the hicks of the California coast. To me, Huntington is an overcrowded, tourist-run highway town that prides itself on its polluted beaches, claiming itself to be the undisputed "Surf City". If it weren't for the fact that most of the surf industry s located near HB, I wouldn't spend much of my time there at all. I get a very Fake vibe from the place every time I'm there...not my style.
