Mizzou's is in good shape since no one goes to the games there.

The children must be bringing those #s down bc I see way more people with BMI above 20% walking around

This is why the SEC has the best lineman. Obesity is a strength.

Kentucky has Louisville and Lexington to make their numbers better. The Cumberland Gap area of the Bluegrass State is the fattest place I've ever been, and I've been on safari.
That said, MS will never overcome the negative #s that the Delta hangs on us. It's why we want to split them with Arkansas.

Oh come on, you have to admit this thread was a little funny

Just to be clear, the obesity rates closely mirror poverty rates. These states are amongst the poorest in the nation, and their available diets reflect that.

Well that and the meth keeps the ol' BMI down

Plus meth addicts are rarely overweight.

I never thought of it, but that's a lot of damn meat in the stands on game day in these bigger stadiums like Bama and Lsu. I would say Kyle field, but nobody wants to go there so it doesn't matter.

deleted. Too insensitive toward the hippo-like states.

I would much rather live in a State that had overweight couples than a state that most couples were cousins.

I don't think it has much to do with available diet. For $30 in MS you can easily prepare a healthy meal for a family of 4 or you can get 4 Big Mac combos. More about choice than availability.

Also, meth heads tend not to eat....Missouri is filled with them

UK is already ahead of you, they downsized the stadium to accommodate the added weight.
