Dad was a trainer for the football and baseball teams in the 80's, Grandpa was a frat brother with Fran Tarkenton, Mom went to UGA, Grandma went and worked in the Administration offices for a time. And, now, my fiancee is a UGA alumna.
I, however, did not attend UGA. Had the opportunity to, but I've spent my whole life going to games in Athens (family has had season tickets since the 300 level was built) and the route I wanted to take was and has turned out to be much better at a different university.
I now have a Bachelors and a Masters and in a few years I should be working on a Phd through Ga State. Yet, I still hold on to hope that one day I might have the time and money to fit in another Master's degree, this time from UGA. Won't say it doesn't gnaw at me that the school and town I love so much has no record of me ever attending. But that just seems to make sense in a weird sort of way. I think it would have ruined our relationship, me and UGA, if we were to ever have been that close.

Born and raised in Knoxville, TN. Became a fan on my own freewill. My family doesn't follow college football too much (more NFL fans), but if they had a favorite team it would be Tennessee. Still in college and plan on attending UGA...hopefully. Even though I could have gone and still can go to UT to graduate, the Dawg in me just won't let me go there. Plans are to hopefully move to GA soon so I don't have to pay that outrageous out of state tuition.
I am a 2 year single-seat season ticket holder and make the 4 hour drive to Athens for every big home game. I would like to make it to all of them, but I'm not driving 4 hours one way to watch one half of football against a Buffalo or GA Southern.

I am the Firewind. I have ALWAYS loved the UGA Bulldogs! I did not go to UGA, I chose a different path, and went to ABAC in Tifton Ga, to pursue a career in ag education, with plans on finishing at UGA , to be , you guessed it, an ag teacher in high school. Well, after ABAC, I made the biggest mistake of my life and moved to Knoxville Tennessee, after meeting a girl from there, got married and went to school there for a little while, but can not stand the orange and white. I decided against the ag teacher career, and went the business/management route. Most importantly, I love, love, love UGA and Ga football. My kids all want to go there, and look forward to that. Ask anyone on here, I am as Disney as they come, and am optimistic to the nth degree, but that's me, I live and love UGA football. In 2010, I remarried, and snagged a UF Gator alumni, and love giving it back about UGA busting it down on them for two years in a row! Go Dawgs!!!
