OFFICIAL ROAST REPORT
We're sorry. Actually, no we're not.
Congratulations Mount Pleasant, you managed to name yourself after the only geographical feature you don't have. The surrounding area is 'mostly flat' without mountains OR hills, making your town name about as accurate as calling a desert 'Lake Paradise.'
Currently sitting at 11th place in the MAC with a stellar 2-3 conference record, the Chippewas are proof that you can have a 32,000-seat football stadium and still be irrelevant in every sport that matters. Fire Up Chips? More like Fire Your Coaches.
Your high school mascot is literally named after an industry that peaked and died before your grandparents were born. Nothing screams 'living in the past' quite like celebrating an oil boom that lasted exactly five minutes while your city seal still features a drill that's been bone dry for nearly a century.
When 20,000 college students show up and literally double your population, that's not growth—that's life support. The moment graduation hits, they flee faster than oil left your wells, leaving behind nothing but empty beer cans and the crushing realization that you peaked as someone else's temporary address.
