Try telling that to 99% of the Gamecock fanbase.

Ain't nothing wrong with it. I see it as a sacrifice to the football Gods. It hasn't worked yet but I'm dedicated in my efforts.

I don’t eat much chicken anymore
But Saturday’s in the fall I have cheat days

CFA breakfast followed by chicken and waffles from sweet chick.
Then I watch our game

Fried chicken is delicious, and I'd eat it everyday if I could.

Food:
-Saluda’s in 5 Points, sit at the bar with Chris. He makes a great peach Old Fashioned. Probably my favorite restaurant, food wise, in Columbia but it is a little expensive, around $30-$40 for an entree.
-Il Giorgione on Devine St is hands down my favorite restaurant in Columbia. Once again, sit at the bar with Dave. Start with the bruschetta, it’s always amazing. The Rigatoni al Dorado will never let you down. My wife and I are there every Friday.
-I have heard mixed reviews about The Black Rooster, a new French-inspired restaurant, but everyone says the food is great and it’s the service that is lacking. Menu looks amazing.
-If you want a GREAT pulled pork BBQ sandwich then go to Southern Belly in 5 Points. Probably the best bbq sandwiches I’ve ever had.

-If you’re looking for bars, the Vista is chocked full of them. Not much of my scene anymore, but there’s a lot. I’d probably stay away from 5 Points unless you're in college.

If you get there early, parking at the fairgrounds is an easy walk to the Stadium, but the lots full up quick. There are always scalpers around outside the stadium.

If you want to see Stephen Garcia in all his glory and are in town on Friday night then go to Five Points and behold the spectacle.

So am I honestly ... but everything changed with Section 8 housing once Obama was elected. We had no recourse to evict from our properties so you eventually just go with the flow and quit fighting the system while trying to keep the properties nice. It's a losing battle with so many of the tenants because they have invested nothing into their shelter. They could care less.

Not all of them mind you, but most.

Thanks for the suggestions all! Had a great time at the game, and you guys put up a fight. Your young QB is gonna be a stud Fans were great as well, and Sandstorm in person was awesome.

We ate at Bourbon for brunch on Sunday and it was some good stuff. The only thing I would change would be how traffic was handled leaving that stadium. That was a mad house

It seems like the first big game every year the local authorities totally forget how to manage traffic for these games. The rest of the year it'll be fine, but it was horrible coming and going for me.
