Gameday traffic is wonderful.

Old Town Road should replace Mo Bamba for the 2019 season, and should be played at any opportunity. Hi Hi Yikas after a touchdown? Hell no, give me Lil Nas X on full blast.

Liquor should still be prohibited in Boone.

I wish I could find a ticket for MBB games. Always sold out.

The hot dogs from Cascades Cafe is some of the best food I've ever had.

I really miss playing WCU every year.

Yeah, the posts with intentionally dumb stuff - that either no one thinks or is meant to mock people who do say it - kind of miss the point.
That was the point, mix a little comedy in.

Isn’t this entire thread nothing but dumb stuff? Very funny and creative.

The Sean Connery intro is outdated, dumb, and irrelevant. It should be replaced ASAP

I wish we could get rid of the local breweries and replace them with Buffalo Wild Wings.

Peabody's is overrated.

I wish GreatAppSt cared more about the school.

We should clear out more hill space for apartments around Boone. The view behind Walmart is what everyone enjoys.

Delphi forums brought out the best in everyone.

Furman is the grea.......nope...gotta draw a line somewhere.

All or most of our current students know who Sean Connery is and they love him and our new fans and guest at the rock never wonder why a 77 year old Scottish actor with absolutely no ties to ASU is “WElCOMING” them to our home

Sollecito's was the worst place to get pizza and had zero atmosphere.
:lol:
And a Yogi's turkey grinder was the worst sandwich in history. Bucks biscuits were so small you had to eat 3 or four of them at a time. Breakfast sucked at the old mountain house and Ray's drive in had the best food in Boone (after 1 am)

Montgomery was better than New Orleans and the student who sat next to me in the Superdome needed one more beer

Scott Satterfield is overrated. He did a nice job at Appalachian, but I didn't see anything in his six years that makes me think he's up for the Louisville job.

We should push for more mid-week games. Frees up Saturdays for weddings, yard work and shopping with the wife.

100% agree. We should do anything it takes to get into the MAC.

It makes no difference to me whether our bowl game opponent is from the MAC, CUSA or somewhere else. If you aren't playing a ranked or power conference team, all anyone remembers is whether you brought home a trophy or not; it doesn't matter if the team you beat was 6-6 or 10-2. And unless we're going to the NY6, I care far more about visiting a fun city with convenient travel options and having a good time than I do getting the "best matchup."

I sort of liked the days when FB had the Black A, BKB had the Old Man logo, and everyone else was using the White A. It gave them some other identity than the standard logo. I still prefer the last of the Old Man Yosef costumes to the current one. The OMY was one of those 70 year old mountain men that still got up at 6 am to work on the farm and still could whip 3 guys half his age if called upon. The new one still looks like he grew the beard because it is trendy and the only farm he has been on is Farmville.
That's what I do. I gripe and I know things.
