re: I hate basketball season

OTOH, while basketball is pretty popular in every region of the country outside of SEC states, in the SEC states south/east of KY-MO-ARK and north of FL, basketball is so reviled that in order to be one of the "cool kids" you pretty much have to hate basketball and mock it.

You can't leave Tennessee out of that. Tennessee is a huge basketball state. The entire city loves the Grizzlies and there are a ton of Tigers fans. Their are d1 programs all over the country littered with players from Memphis.

Nashville is another great basketball city and I love when it is the host site for the SEC tourney. Vandy has always had good support. The Vol's are like top 10 annually for attendance.
