re: Hotty Toddy as a greeting is awkward

Anyone feel the same way, or is this just me?

Considering I haven't really lived in Mississippi since graduating, whenever I wear my garb outside of the state and someone says that to me, I do enjoy it, because I usually then strike up a conversation with them. Sorry, but it's great when you live hours away from Mississippi. If I see someone wearing Ole Miss gear, I will say Hotty Toddy as well. Granted I don't do that when I'm in Mississippi or Memphis, but it's nice to know someone when you're far away from your home. Ran into a few people in Beijing with Ole Miss shirts on, and I bet even you would scream Hotty Toddy when you saw an Ole Miss fan half a world away.
