Figured I'd say good game this past weekend.

I enjoyed Starkville and thought the town was real pretty.

A few thoughts:

The cowbells were so damn annoying, I really can't believe 1. that y'all are allowed to use those and 2. that y'all actually like doing it, so loud.

Bar scene is mediocre. Went to Bin and Cowbells. Noticed there were NOT A LOT of hot girls at either, however, while tailgating I was completely blown away by all the hot arse there. So...very impressed by the amount of nice tail at MSU, but it seems you really have to be in the inner circle to have a chance. (Probably didn't help we were completely wasted the whole weekend.) The accents of a lot of the girls I met were really funny...... I fell in love a few times.

Really hard to get around, very few sidewalks.

Got hardly any heckling at all. Very different from games in BR. All the dudes I met were really friendly but could tell they really hated LSU/me. Definitely a complex from being picked on so many years.

The game was real tough and y'all played us hard. Good luck the rest of the season.

Embrace the bell. It is a unique tradition unlike any other .

Bin = Good
Cowbells = Sucks unless you are beyond fricked up

The city of Starkville is having a hard time keeping up with the growth of the University and success of various athletic programs. That's where your bar scene and sidewalk problems come from. The city really needs to get on board and upgrade a ton of infrastructure.

Also, there just needs to be more bars. During big weekends it gets so packed that it makes it seem worse than it is because you can hardly get close enough to get a drink every 30 minutes.

Struggles of a small college town. It's already gotten so much better, just has to keep going. I think Starkville is headed in the right direction. Some of the power that were in a few hands for a very long time is seemingly being spread out more and more.

What's weird is I never heard a lot of other fans complaining about us using cowbells when I was growing up in the 80s/90s. Is this a millennial pussification thing?
