    I live in San Francisco, and Oakland tends to be a good city rival (but I am mostly referring to sports, primarily baseball) - as well as Los Angeles, but that rivalry is usually one sided, in LA - I kid, I kid. :wink:

    San Diego versus LA/ Oakland/ SF.... Ya I said it, we will take you all on!!!!!!:devil: :glasses:

    Well, I'm from Scotland and here it's Edinburgh v Glasgow or 'edinburgers v weegies'. There's a very funny book published in two halves with the case for Edinburgh on one side and when you turn it over it's rooting for Glasgow. This rivalry extends to culture and particularly football even though there's only 45 miles between the two cities. Edinburgh folk believe themselves to be a cut above and the Glaswegians think Edinburgh folk are snobs. Mainly good humoured banter but the Scots cannae agree on the colour of s***e

    Oh, I've heard of that rivalry. As a tourist I think of Glasgow more as a city of shopping and night life, while Edinburgh wins hands down in the history and culture department.

    I heard another big rivalry in the UK is Birmingham vs Manchester. Something about being the UK's second city.

    I live in Alberta, Canada. Edmonton and Calgary are rivals, but mostly because both have an NHL team.

    And because Calgary is better :)

    pittsburgh vs the entire state of west virginia, philadelphia (all sports and the city/residents in general), baltimore, cleveland, d.c and currently boston (hockey only). i'm starting to think we might be kind of jerks here.
