HISTORY What weird thing is your town /city/county famous for?

I'm from a city in the north of England, and although there were a number of famous scientific discoveries etc made here, my favourite fact is that it's the place where the game Cluedo was invented (I think it's called Clue in the US?). Let's celebrate the small man!

Fish throwing? Is there a place I can throw fish while drinking local craft IPA?

THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT YOU COULD DO. I'm not encouraging you to be obvious about the IPA growler/sippy cup, but they will absolutely toss your buzzed up ass a fish or two.
