Mountain time zone is a pain in the ass.   In the Central time zone, you know your in hour off of the Eastern showing for whatever television you want to watch.  In the mountain, sometimes its Eastern, sometimes its adjusted for Pacific and each channel is different. 

People in western Kansas must be rough ridin' idiots.

I have no idea why liking Denver/Colorado would make a Far West Kansan want to have a different clock than the rest of Kansas.

My favorite is when I'm setting up for a project out in those godforsaken counties and they always say "Now, we're on Mountain Time out here."  I guess they feel like they have to be a part of something else. 

Playing @Syracuse in high school.   :shakesfist:

Why would anybody get upset about playing Syracuse in high school? You get out of school an hour earlier to go play the game, then you get home a whole hour earlier than you would have otherwise.

To avoid any more confusion brought on by those darn four counties, here's a link on how time works in the U.S.

Look, I think we all know how time works. I've already acknowledged that I was wrong before you ever came in and corrected it.

Now you have outed yourself. I thought you were trying to add to the confusion that Trim was having.

Yeah, I thought about trying to play it that way but I didn't think anybody would believe me. If I were steve dave, I would just move these last few posts to fanning stuff and hope nobody sees them.

Alright, we have a consensus.  4 Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!) counties, choose.

living in the central time zone is just perfect for the sports fan. Those 4 counties are weird.
Sometimes I think of the Book of Job and how God likes to really eff with people.

QFMFT.

Know what's weird? "Alaska time." One hour behind Pacific. Awful for sporting events. Awful. I knew Chestnut's hot dog totals hours before I even got to watch it.

BigCat is from Lakin. He thinks he's from Colorado. He would have some interesting input, and maybe even a yarn or two to spin for us lucky BBS'ers.
BigCat thought he knew me IRL for the longest time.  So weird, from my perspective.  I wish I knew him, but I don't.  Hopefully someday?

Hmmmmm... He does live in Denver now, as do I. Are you from SWK? There's quite a few EMAW's here in Denver... not a ton on this board, but there's a handful.
Not at all.

Agree, especially during college football season.

Gameday at 9:30 am for a hungover breakfast? Check.

Big 10 appetizer at 11am? Check.

Big 12 scrub game on FSN at 12/1? Check.

Big 12 game at 3? Check.

Pregaming for the bars while watching the Big 12 game at 7? Check.

Catching end of Pac12 game at bars that night? Check
