- Summary:
- Peoria came close to greatness on more than one occasion, only to settle for less, time and again. Some things, it seems, just didn't play here. This is the story of those missed chances that made Peoria what it is today, one of the most misunderstood cities in America - unappreciated for anything other than its role as the quintessential bland and boring backwater.
