I always remember it because it rhymes with Cocaine. :D

I may like Spokane a lot but I never really liked that Bob River song that much because I didn't see what the words in had to do with the city, plus he pronounced the name wrong. Someone told me it was intentional because he was making it rhyme with Cocaine. Still ruined the song for me.

Bad news: the diner replaced the stools with tall chairs. Oh well, I'd prefer a picture of Johnny Depp's backside anyways.

I have to admit I haven`t seen or heard of the movie until here
in your thread, but I`ll see it one night soon. I`ve seen pictures
from Spokane, looks really nice.

I seriously didn't know what the hell Spokane was until I saw this thread. I'm not sure if I left a similar comment like this already or not.

That's an odd name for a place. 'Spokane'. I think of spokes on a bicycle tire.

I'm sorry, it's pronounced Spo-Can. Lot of people think its Spo-Cane because of the 'e.'

I also figured it would be Spo-Cane.
