Why is Orion the most useful constellation to know in the night sky?

It may not be the MOST useful - I think that the Big Dipper is more helpful - but Orion is very handy for a number of reasons. First, it is very easy to recognize. Betelgeuse and Rigel are two of the brightest stars in the sky. Second, you can draw imaginary lines from the stars in Orion to other stars, like Sirius, Procyon, and Alpheratz. Third, if you have a good telescope, there are some very interesting stars and nebulae within Orion.
