Now, it's not entirely BuzzFeed's fault. 'Don't shoot the messenger.', right? But we do have a bone to pick with them since Atlantic City landed on their list of the Most Overrated Cities People Have Visited.

DOAC! Score a Free Overnight Stay in Atlantic City

A user named juanzy scathingly writes, "Atlantic City. Venture a few blocks off the boardwalk and it's incredibly depressing.

But there's Atlantic City Aquarium, and Tanger Outlets, and all the great events that come to Atlantic City Convention Center, and the marina. Sure, a couple casinos went under, but look at everything that's arrived over the last couple years! Hard Rock Hotel & Casino, Ocean Casino Resort (which has a Wahlburgers!). Stockton University erected a campus. Atlantic City's got the goods. Hello Sky Wheel and Steel Pier!

And then there are off-boardwalk hangs like Tennessee Avenue Beer Hall, and Rhythm & Spirits, and Kelsey's Jazz Bar, and over just off Albany Avenue amazing views from The Wonder Bar and Vagabond. And how about over at Gardner's Basin? Or Farley Marina?
