I grew up a Tulane fan because my dad played for them back in the day. Sort of became an LSU fan when my older brothers went there.
Became full blown Tiger fanatic at my first game as a student, the famous 6-6 tie with #1 Nebraska in Death Valley. I lived in the stadium at the time. 2 degrees and 9 years later, my blood was completely purple and gold.

Longtime lurker, first post. Ignore everything below.
Most of my family went to either UNA or UA, and I have degrees from both. So I have degrees from the two schools that were my rooting interests growing up... partly my decision, partly for other reasons... UNA was closer to home and I had no idea what I wanted to do out of high school... and at the time UA was the only instate school that had a graduate degree in my field so I went there for my MS.
I think I could have gotten into sporting events at other schools. I just wouldn't be as emotionally attached to them I guess. But it's difficult to say.
I have a friend who went to UNA with me and went to UNC-Chapel Hill for his grad degree. I think I would have been able to get into UNC basketball, but all he cares about to this day is 'Bama football.
