What Font is Memphis?

Whenever I can combine my love for typography and Memphis, i'm on it! 

Today I came across an infographic designed by a group of real estate agents at Movoto. 

Not only are they fascinated by typography, they also have a sense of humor. 

They matched 10 U.S. cities with their font equivalents. From Phoenix to Chicago, each city is accompanied by its own font and the name of the designer behind it.

I particularly admire the front they chose for Memphis. Us Memphians call it "grit" but the Movoto group prefers to call it "scruffy". All in all, I feel that Scrubby is a pretty spot on font to associate Memphis with. 

What font do you think fits Memphis best?
