So the idiot who is the Junkyar Blawgger [sic] is making a list over a few days of the "101 Reasons to be a UGAg Fan"... Please feel free to laugh at any or all of these.

1. “It’s Saturday in Athens!”
2. Uga VII and all his predecessors. The most recognizable — and, as Sports Illustrated said, the best — college mascot in America.
3. “The ball ain’t heavy.”
4. Erk’s bleeding forehead.
5. The Arch.
6. “There goes Herschel.”
7. The most beautiful stadium in college football.
8. The “G” helmet design — even better than Green Bay’s original and the best-looking in all of football.
9. Hines Ward.
10. Silver britches.
11. It’s still “10 to 9″ in Dallas.
12. Ringing the Chapel bell after a victory.
13. David Greene and “70-X-Takeoff.”
14. “Unbeaten, untied and unbelievable!”
15. North Campus in the spring. Or fall. Or any time, really.
16. How many other teams have a Beatles song named after them (”Hey Bulldog”)?
17. “Run, Lindsay!”
18. We don’t wear orange! Or blue, green, purple or yellow (ugh)!
19. A drive down Milledge Avenue during Pledge Week.
20. “Between the Hedges.”
 
My laughs:

1) Alright a cluster f*&k with a bunch of rednecks, I'm on your side now!
2) (Sorry dog lovers) I want to punt that dog
6) Sheesh, he's been gone 30 years. You'd think he is STILL their back.
7) It sure is one nice toilet bowl
8) Uhhhh, sorry but no.. and that's not a GT thing that makes me say that. As for best looking, I can name 118 that might look better.
10) Sorry, I don't stare at britches all day
12) Whistle>>>>Bell
14) Tech 4 - UGAg Not
18) Thank God, you'd mess those ones up too
19) That is what UGAg is all about, really
20) Didn't they change the plant a few years ago from English hedge to some local thing?
 
Isn't there like 6 schools in the SEC with "Between the hedges"?

UGA is about the most unoriginal school ever.
 
Some that didn't make the cut:

21) our quarterback has a mouse in his pants.
22) you can piss wherever you want. no really, you can.
23) you can buy all our stuff at any truck stop.
24) if you lose your hat, all you have to do is follow any landscape truck and wait for one to fall off.
25) no one cares if you spoon your best buddy.
26) its so easy, even a caveman can do it.

they also cant each come up with their own mascot
there are two Bulldogs and two Tigers; not much imagination
 
27) You enjoy Scout rankings and beauty pageants more than football
28) Spray tans make you look good without the risk of skin cancer
29) Free passes to the Redneck Games on the back of each ticket
30) Diagram the half-court line
31) You get to rationalize away your losses, but keep your wins
32) You can easily make yourself look smarter by using Caps lock and adding "!!!!!!!!!!!1!!" to everything you say.
33) Ignorance is bliss.
 
Being a fan is as close as the sale rack at Walmart.
Teeth: Optional.
Make the trailer park unanimous.
Red matches your neck.
Your ugly dog will look handsome next to Uga.
 
Some other reasons

1. Your fight song was played by the folks who burned the your state to the ground.
2. The redcoat marching band---hurray for the British redcoats who resisted America's freedom!
3. Your mascots used to be the goats, until Yale came South, whooped your butts, and then you changed your mascot to the same one Yale was using.
4. The hedges. A weed, in the form of the shrub, that shows up at exactly 29 other Division I-A stadiums. How very original (see #3).
5. You can hear your fight song played by several other schools in your conference. It is their fight song too! How neat!
6. Wally Butts was an alcoholic and womanizer.
7. Larry Munson takes after Butts.
8. Your mascot likes to sniff butts.
9. You are firing professors because of a budget crisis but you athletic department had a profit of over 40 million. Which was spent on a statute honoring VD.
10. Jan Kemp.
11. Ed Tolley.
12. Misdrawing the GA Tennessee border.
13. Dishonoring GT veterans in both WWI and WWII!
14. Your stadium corridors were built only half too narrow.
15. Your stadium is a poor man's version of UNC's, because you couldn't spend as much as they did on the same plan.
16. Your stadium is a pet cemetery.
17. Herschel Walker, Herschel Walker, Herschel Walker, Herschel Walker, and his other personality, Larry the Cable Guy.
18. Athens is easily accessible via major highways.
19. The pristine condition of the North Campus after a game.
20. Billboards bashing your own receivers.
21. Three wins in 19 years against UF. But you still don't like to admit Tech is a bigger rival.
22. Your mascot is a genetic eunuch.
23. 2008 Preseason National Champions.
24. More #1 recruiting championships than actual championships.
25. Many of your women prefer to marry Tech men.
26. Mike Bobo stopped beating up 110# kids (with the help of o-lineman) and took up coaching.
27. Highest per capita use of spray on tans.
28. Everything but the scoreboard looks good in black.
29. Moreno sprints off the field nearly as fast as he sprinted to the NFL.
30. You have a long history of playing ginger's at QB.
31. Your mascot has better potty training than most of your fans.
32. The #4 business school in the state.
33. The literacy rate of your students is the envy of many rural areas in third world countries.
34. In the 1980's Athens had an awesome music scene. Today, part of it is(was) on fire.
35. You've really improved on that Greenbay G by changing the colors.
36. You are original by not being original at all.
37. The world is shocked that your fans can count to 101.

Just in the SEC alone, you mean! :laugher:

It amazes me the things they consider uniquely theirs:

The "G" -- literally licensed from Green Bay.

"Bulldogs" -- copied from Yale, along with many others.

Live bulldog mascot -- Yale had Handsome Dan a century ago, and Miss State had Bully 20 years before they had their mutt.

Red -- has to be the most common sports team color.

"Glory to Old Georgia" -- The Battle Hymn of the Republic, Sherman's marching song while burning their state -- replacing Dixie, the most unoriginal possible "fight song" for a Southern school, since it was played at every Southern school and the fight song of several others including Ole Miss.

Hedges -- Auburn has hedges. Alabama has hedges. What is unique about UGA's hedges, other than the lack of anything else unique to talk about?

Iron arches. Wow. Y'all seriously rock.

Bar district. Okay, Athens does have a good bar district. But how is it really different from Madison, WI? Or Adams Morgan? Or Virginia Highlands and L5P?

Good looking coeds. Yep, they do have those, as well. But they greatly exaggerate the quality. 21 year old college girls are hot at any big state school. In my experience, UNC has smarter girls who are similarly attractive, and FSU has better looking girls who are wearing less.

Football tradition -- it's solid. But it isn't nearly as good as UGA fans think it is. They'll be the first to tell you about their resources and fan base, which are indeed impressive -- but also make them an underachieving overall program historically.

Adams Morgan/DC bars are pretty cool. Cinco de Mayo '07. All I gotta say. :D

FWIW, Athens looks exactly like the strip on the main road approaching Norman, OK.
 
Does anyone remember the thread about someone stealing the actual dog... that beats all.
