FlashFest Bingo Word #8 - Central City
Central City, MO is the home of the Flash in the many of his incarnations, but most notably my personal favorite, Barry Allen!
Central City, MO is located directly across the Missouri river from Keystone City, KA. Together, these two cities are often referred to as the Twin Cities or the Gem Cities (pre-crisis). Even though you really can’t talk about one without the other, we’ll try to focus on Central City for now. Let’s take a super-quick tour!
Here is the arced bridge (just one of the bridges) that connects the Twin Cities!
On an unexciting day, you will most likely see cars and such driving back and forth, but on an exciting day, you might see the Flash VIBRATING AN ENTIRE AIRPLANE RIGHT THROUGH IT!!
Inside the city, there are a few notable features such as Central City University, S.T.A.R Labs, and most importantly, the Flash Museum!
The Flash Museum has been destroyed, rebuilt, and relocated (back and forth between Central and Keystone) many times throughout history. The museum boasts interactive displays featuring the history of the many Flashes, the gallery of Rogues, and the wondrous Cosmic Treadmill!
But what’s the most important thing about the Twin Cities?
The Flash would surely tell you that it’s the people! They are hardworking and decent folks known for their ingenuity and dedication to improving their own cities and the entire world, paving the way toward a better future. And why not? When you share a city with the “Fastest Man Alive,” the future tends to come pretty quickly!
And let’s not forget that they’re never too shy to show their appreciation for their favorite hero!
And looks like that’s a bingo for me! YAAAAAY!!!!
