Does your city have unique slang/attributes?

Question

I live in Thunder Bay and we have the following ones I haven't seen in other places:

Shag - a party that a bride and groom put on before thier wedding to raise money for it. To go to one, you buy a ticket ($2 in advance, $3 at the door), drinks are only 2.50, you get free food (usually pizza, beef on a bun or lunch meat), there's tons of prizes you can buy tickets for (tv's, trips, bbq's etc). Plus free cab rides home

Persian - A tasty treat similar to a cinnamon bun but with pink icing and sooo addicting.

We also have the largest Finnish population outside of Finland.

We're home of Paul s******r.
