Everybody Loves a Drunken Gay Portland

Another Willamette Week story. Portland has been getting mad love from major media outlets lately. This is something I notice a lot in the New York Times, but it seems to be everywhere now. Scroll down and read the bit about how Portland paid for the love.

But I really like the list of most popular Portland searches:

• Bike-friendly + Portland = 53
• Soggy + Portland = 135
• Vegan + Portland = 159
Beer + Portland = 2,458
• Hipster + Portland = 163
• Dogs + Portland = 197
• Lesbians + Portland = 750
• Liberal + Portland = 1,379
• Ace Hotel + Portland = 52
• Suicide + Portland = 1,134
• Weird + Portland = 742
Sustainable + Portland = 2,242
• Pearl District + Portland = 867
• Marijuana + Portland = 554
Gay + Portland = 2,497
• Coffee + Portland = 316
• Indie + Portland = 72

Beer loses out to Gay. In tribute, here are some slightly phallic Portland beer taps.
