to those of you giving good advice... thank you very much.

to those of you trolling visitors like myself, do you realize how stupid it is to try and have visitors who are patronizing your local merchants leave with a negative impression of your town and its fans?

This dork sounds like my mom!

Agreed, would really like the town businesses to get repeat visits from Auburn fans.

Here's the thing sak, when i went down to Auburn for our game several years ago, I had a pretty awful experience.  A grown man dumped a beer all over my kid's head on purpose, then laughed about it.  Another guy spit his tabacco spit on my shoe in the stadium then tried to fight me.  Some college punk stole my mask, and ran off with it.  I'd put Auburn fans up there with the likes of Raiders fans and Nebraska fans in the classless department.

i had a similar experience to yours meow meow at the game @ auburn.  some older guy whistled at my wife and yelled something like "you should walk that sweet ass over here girl", i would have yelled something awful back at him but our 2 girls were with us.  when we got into the stadium some college guys were really drunk and kept asking how we could let that "boy" be our coach.  i was just appalled at the whole experience and i felt so bad for our girls and my wife for having to go through the whole thing.

If I saw a father wearing a mask I'd think he was a dork too.

I don't know if this shows up on "Yelp" or not but Ogden is a really nice little Manhattan bedroom community and the shops and restaurants on their newly redeveloped riverfront are pretty nice.

Also, go to Rock-A-Belly and drink summer beers.

what?!? I haven't been to Ogden in years. Last time I was there it was to blast some rounds at the shooting range with my pops. Have they legitimately fixed up a river front area?

This bama peckerwood wants "adult entertainment." Bubba, you need to slide by Junction City, it's kind of Manhattan's evil twin, if a twin is half the size and covered with warts.
