Hey, how do y'all pronounce Leicester there? It is a big arguement here, and has been for generations. We who live here and drive pickup trucks, call it 'Lester'. Those in town and drive Honda's, call is 'Lee-sester' with emphasis on the Lee. No one seems to know the true origin of the Leicester in question. If it is German, it is Lie-ster. If it is British, it is...what? Yer Welcome!
