Most people wouldn't care one way or the other. Though Mormons are proportionately the largest population in Utah, numerically they're outnumbered by non-mormons. Individually they're just like anyone else and most are pretty normal (even by non-Utahn standards). It's just that if you get a bunch of them together, some can get pretty self-righteous. Like any religious group they have their share of loud, outspoken wackos, but most are nice. Happy Valley is just where the more self-righteous ones tend to congregate.

Eh. Well i'm staying there for about two weeks so I hope I don't get affected by it.
Also is it true I will get shunned if I say i'm not mormon? {Not being discriminting here... Just what people have told me}

It's hard to explain. Everything is so...fake? Too clean? It's like a county of clean cut, Brady Bunch astroturf. It just feels very twilighty...like that show about that zone (what was it called?).
Maybe it's just because I grew up to be a liberal thinker in the most conservative state in the nation, but the place just freaks me out. 0_o

I was down in orem last summer, But I didn't get a chance to actually go around and sightsee.
...How exactly is it weird?

I'm afraid I wouldn't know of places around BYU. That's down in the depths of Utah County (a.k.a. Happy Valley, a.k.a. Stepford County), where I rarely tread. If you make it up to SLC, that's a different story.
Utah County is...weird.

Yeah, I have a few friends that go. I might be able to get some video game soundtracks there, but it probably doesn't get any closer to actual game music concerts than that. Ah well. I take it you are not Mormon just as I'm not, correct?
