Thanks for the info! Some of us are going to this game so the info is greatly appreciated.

As for me...well...I just like to have fun and mess with people. No hard feelings.

However, West Virginia is not southern. No matter how much southern WV identifies as southern, WV will never be viewed as "southern". If WV doesn't have a star on the Confederate Flag (WV doesn't) then WV is not southern.

Hell, Missouri actually is represented by a star on the Confederate flag and southerners still don't view us as "southern". The entire southern half of Missouri, especially the bootheel and SW Missouri, identifies as southern and have southern accents, yet the south still refuses to believe Missouri is southern.

If Missouri isn't southern, WV sure as hell isn't southern.

I've been to WV many times, mostly to whitewater kayak near Beckley (New and Gauley Rivers). WV is VERY similar to SW Missouri's Ozark Mountain region. Y'all are certainly hillbillies like Ozark Mountain baldknobbers...but you ain't southern.
