Some of us enjoyed growing up in this small town, everybody-knows-everybody's-business environment. Some of us couldn't wait to get the heck outta town after graduation. Either way, there is a common bond between Cheshire's residents. Here is a list of signs that you hail from one of the most boring towns in good ol' Connecticut:
1. Your first stop on your way home from any break is to get Choffee.
2. You have yelled at every person who pronounced it Che-SHIRE.
3. You’ve sat in the student section at a football game.
4. The phrase “the bubble popped” has a whole different meaning for you.
5. You sometimes forget that Cheshire Academy exists.
6. You think that we have way too many CVS/Walgreens/Rite-aids’ for one town.
7. You’ve enjoyed a cone from Sweet Claude’s here:
8. You have a favorite Dunkin Donuts in town.
9.You’ve thought it was a good idea to go to/order from Dragon Buffet.
10. And you hate yourself afterwards.
11. You’re either team Green Light or team All-Star.
