Why is the rock and roll hall of fame in Cleveland?
Is there any significance of the rock and roll hall of fame being in Cleveland?? Or is it just a random place to pick?
Rolling Stone had a vote and Cleveland won, also Allan Freed(?) coined the term "Rock and Roll" there.

Hey Stacie
I found you via Jo's blog.. Good for you in the marathon training and all the races you've been doing~fabulous! (I was training a year ago for the Rock and Roll Marathon in Tempe, but tore my achilles tendon and had to hang it up for awhile…so decided I'd drop some more weight…to make running less stressful on the body. I am running again..although starting out slow…tough work at my age ☺ ) How's the fam? Miss you and keep up the good work!♥Leslie
