The day after Thanksgiving is the busiest day of the year for plumbers . . . to the point where some call it “Brown Friday” . . . and yes, it’s for THAT reason. Partially.
(There’s increased strain on pipes everywhere, not just the bathroom. Kitchen pipes get clogged when people pour grease, turkey drippings, and cooking oil down the drain. And kitchen disposals get overloaded.)
In honor of Brown Friday, Yelp analyzed data on plumbing-related searches . . . particularly for “emergency plumbing” and “24-hour plumbers” . . . to come up with a list of the most clogged-up cities in America.
Here are the cities that could be the most vulnerable on Brown Friday:
1. Los Angeles
2. Miami
3. Nashville
4. Sacramento
5. Baltimore
6. Las Vegas
7. Minneapolis
8. Providence
9. San Francisco
10. San Diego
11. San Jose, California
12. Charlotte
13. Phoenix
14. Riverside, California. That’s six California cities in the Top 14.
15. Boston
16. Pittsburgh.
17. Orlando
18. Houston
19. Philadelphia
20. St. Louis
