Why Muncie is the entertainment capital of the world

I spent five alcohol induced years in Muncie in the late 80s and early 90s. To say it was memorabe would be nice if I remembered any of it. The people were nice, slightly odd but entertaining. So when I heard CBS's new show, Armed and Famous was being shot there, I will watch it. I really don't watch reality shows, I am rather a snob in that degree. But dammit, they have Wee-man!
Tully's description from the Star:

Here's the concept: First you take five celebrities -- including Erik Estrada of "CHiPs" fame, La Toya Jackson of the Jackson family, and a guy named Jason "Wee-Man" Acuna, whose previous career highlight was appearing in the movie "Jackass." Then you train the stars, swear them in as reserve police officers and send them out on the night shift with real Muncie police.
Yes, La Toya and the rest have been given guns, badges and policing powers.
Any doubts about that were eliminated Friday, when the Muncie Star Press ran a front-page story headlined, "Community activist Randall Sims stabbed, argues with Erik Estrada." Next to the story was a picture of Estrada, a gun in his holster, shouting at the victim, who was also a suspect.

So why is Muncie the entertainment capital of the word?
1. Close Encounters of the Third Kind was set in Muncie, but they found the city to cultured so they actually filmed it in Georgia
2. In the Coen brothers' film, The Hudsucker Proxy, Tim Robbins' character gets off the bus from the Muncie School of Business, obviously this is polite reference to Ball State's School of Business which makes Harvard's look like a third rate community college. He did invent the hula hoop in that movie and the frisbee.
3. Jim Davis, Garfield's creator, is from Muncie, enough said
4. Don't forget the left wing nut job David Letterman went to Ball State.
5. Finally, the mighty Obob has one degree from the School of History and was a member of the mighty Phi Sigs. Our house was green and we once shut down a party because the floor joists broke under the weight of the crowd. Nothing like three hundred people chanting, "Our house, our house, our house is falling down." We're classy!

Finally ... Lazy Muncie
