Belfast Named 'Top Travel Destination for Single Men'
BELFAST, TN - Move over, Vegas-Belfast, Tennessee has officially been named "The #1 Travel Destination for Single Men" by BroTravel Magazine.
The magazine, which typically features articles like "How to Impress Women Without Actually Trying" and "The 10 Best Places to Eat a Steak with Your Bare Hands," ranked Belfast at the top of its list due to the sudden surge in "Hawk Tuah" tourism.
"Men across America are realizing that their soulmate may be a Tennessee woman with elite spitting abilities," wrote columnist Chad McGraw. "And they are buying plane tickets immediately."
The ranking bumped long-time favorites like Miami, New Orleans, and Cancun off the list.
"Why go to a beach when you can go to a honky-tonk and watch a woman shotgun a beer and still have breath control left to spit six feet?" said BroTravel editor Kyle Dawson.
Local men, however, aren't thrilled about the sudden wave of competition.
"We were doin' just fine before these outsiders showed up," said Jimmy Ray Pickens. "Now I gotta work twice as hard just to get a date. I might have Belfast Tennessee to… I dunno… start wearing deodorant."
