The Beginning
It's pretty easy to see the rivalry's significance. Two towns about 50 miles apart. One is the largest city in the state while the other is home to the state government.
They both house the same people, Nebraskans.
But there has always seems to be a schism between the two. Not growing up in either one I could see the difference. These two town are run differently.
The town up north prides itself on the international companies it holds. Its a riverfront town that was built up on 1800's commerce that came up and down from the Missouri.
