GAME DAY
NORTH: A few students party in the dorm and watch ESPN on TV.

GETTING TO THE STADIUM
NORTH: You ask "Where's the stadium?". When you find it, you walk right in.
SOUTH: When you're near it, you'll hear it. On game day it becomes the state's third largest city.
CONCESSIONS
NORTH: Drinks served in a paper cup, filled to the top with soda.
SOUTH: Drinks served in a plastic cup with the home team's mascot on it. Filled less than halfway with soda, to ensure enough room for bourbon.

COMMENTARY (MALE)
NORTH: "Nice play."
SOUTH: "Da**it, you slow sumbitch - tackle him and break his legs ! !" (edited by poster because I didn't want the mods to do it for me!)
COMMENTARY (FEMALE)
NORTH: "My, this certainly is a violent sport."
SOUTH: "Da**it, you slow sumbitch - tackle him and break his legs ! !" (edited by poster because I didn't want the mods to do it for me here too!)
ANNOUNCERS
NORTH: Neutral and paid.
SOUTH: Announcer harmonizes with the crowd in the fight song, with a tear in his eye because he is so proud of his team.
AFTER THE GAME
NORTH: The stadium is empty way before the game ends.
SOUTH: Another rack of ribs goes on the smoker. While somebody goes to the nearest package store for more bourbon, planning begins for next week's game.
After reading this, everyone in my family thought of my sister. That's her when it comes to college football!!

It's funny because it's all true.
Based on that.... Nebraska is a "South" state... with one exception.... come game day, the stadium, and it's parking lot becomes THE LARGEST city in the state.

All accurate, except here in TN we A.) don't bother filling the cups halfway with soda before adding the bourbon, and B.) expect our daughters to understand pass interference by age 5, prevent nickel defenses by 7, and be able to debate the philosophy of on-sides vs. touchback kick-offs by middle school.
