I saw someone else wearing Gerogia stuff in an airport. It was so refreshing. 95% of the time, it's either florida fans or Big 10 fans. I typically wear a lot of Georgia stuff when I'm outside of the south (hats, fleeces) but this is the first weekend ever where it got any attention. I was in Illinois and I had about 6-7 people throughout the day "Go Dawgs" me on the side of the street. and a really nice Alabama fan roll tided me but than gave me free food. I travel around a fair bit and that has never happened. Like it took me awhile to realize what they said.

I travel a lot and I always rep the power G on a tee shirt or hoodie myself and half the time I get a reaction. When I worked at Yellowstone last year, I saw more UGA gear than most other SEC schools. When I worked in North Carolina I always ran into a G or bulldog logo either on someone or on a vehicle. There are a ton of UGA people in Colorado.

I live in illinois and wear dawgs apparel all the time. Surprising, a lot people mistake our g with the packers. I know it's the same, but with the red and black, people still get it mixed up.

I was in Newport Beach, Cal., last fall and I went into the Marriott bar Saturday night to watch the games and have a few drinks. I had on an UGa blackout jersey. Two fine looking young ladies (not working girls) came over and we chatted for about twenty minutes about Georgia and SEC football. They both knew football well enough to talk it well. They invited me to go out to a couple of bars with them. Were I not committed to my Sweetheart I could have partied the evening with them.
I get comments all the time when I wear Georga gear while traveling.
