Ya, have family connections w/ New Orleans and they root for LSU,


everyone in the city does even if they're Loyola or Tulane types. With FSU, I did some schoolin' down there (it was one of their good programs, I swear) and enjoyed it. Plus, I always liked that FSU came into the ACC and brought some instant football cred while not sucking balls at hoops. Was born a Hoo in addition to school, so was always a UVa/ACC guy as a kid, probably helped steer me to UVA (for the sports!) Saw the '95 game on TV as a HS student, #1 most epic thing ever.

I guess UGa has their in-state programs that enable students to get there w/ certain qualifications, but could be tough because their in-state alternative is GT. So makes sense a lot would go to Clemson, Bama, Auburn. I just always knew Auburn was one because it's like an hour and a half. Your cousin sounds cool, definitely some cool people in the South and at the big schools that know how to have a lot of fun, you need to be initiated into it as a NOVA yankees a little but it's cool.

I lived in Arlington for a long time out of school (not now), but grew up in the NOVA burbs as a UVa kid. Had to goodle those kabob places to see if they were still there. Still get back a lot though, it's where I'm from, born in DC, raised just outside the Beltway.
