After some quick math, that's 24 meters. Our's is literally across a two lane local road from campus, which is 7 meters at the maximum (.0043). I suppose if you took the cross walk and walked along the sidewalk to get there it would take longer, but practically no one does that.


It's probably distance from the official address of the University, not from the nearest building on campus. It would be hard for them to go to every campus and check on this directly, and time consuming to measure it from the edge of each campus. Easier to just use the main address of each campus.

Of course, I could be wrong - in case I have no idea what criteria they used.

The best Tex-Mex item is cheese or chicken enchiladas with a Verde sauce. Until you eat that at a legit place you haven't tried Tex-Mex.


I've only tried enchiladas with chili con carne or queso. Ok, but not quite Colorado, though twice the price. I'll be site to get them with Verde sauce next time.

I will say, Titas Taco House in Humble is legit. The best homemade corn tortillas I've ever had.

Chipotle is directly on campus here, dead center in fact at Rose and Euclid. How did they get .004 from campus? I demand satisfaction!

No Yeungling? That's so bizarre... Is there a particular reason why it's not sold in Mississippi?

A stone's throw. ~10-second walk from campus. Bring in the recruits! (Personally, I prefer the nearby Burrito Bros to Chipotle.)

I have no idea. It might be sold somewhere in Mississippi, but not Oxford.

Never understood why people go to these kinds of "Mexican" places.

I bet money you can find a great Mexican restaurant in your own town and it will be about the same price as this stuff.

My favorite place is a little restaurant that sells 2 steak Chimichanga's for $8. Wife likes their tacos, she gets an entire place with a couple of tacos, beans and other stuff for about the same price.

And even if you get the order to go, you get a bag of chips and a cup of salsa. And the chips are so fresh they are still warm from the fryer.

If you eat in, then you get as many chips as you want, wait service and free refills.

And little mom and pop Mexican restaurants like this are all over the place.

The chipotle by LSU IS LITERALLY 20 feet from when you step off campus. List is shite.





That said. Chipotle blows. Zippy's FTW.

This listing is total crap. In Opelika, there is a Chipotle right across the street from the engineering building.

The writer of this article, Jason Kirk, is a known Bammer sympathizer with family members who have been identified as being members of the REC.

This goes all the way to the top and we auNecks will not let it die and we will not forget. SB Nation will be boycotted, I repeat, will be boycotted by the entire Plainsmen fambly.

If you are a true auNeck, you will call the SB Nation sponsors and demand that they pull their ads from this website or face retribution.

Also, Chipotle is in on the scheme to defame us and they are against us too because they are jealous of our cows and cow meat.

So, boycott Chipolte too. And Alabama and the REC and the SEC office are the ones who orchestrated the whole article in the first place, so boycott them also. In fact, don't buy anything in the state of Alabama until Chipotle, SB Nation, Nick Saban, and the Internet apologizes to us.

Okay, this is getting serious everyone. The auNeck Fambly Nation is mobilizing against SB Nation and a worldwide boycott of Chipotle, SB Nation, Nick Saban, Alabama, and the Internet is currently being organized.

They have been totally screwed by this article. There is a Chipotle right across the damn street from the engineering building in Opelika. Everyone knows this.

Repeat: The author of this article is a known Bammer, or at the very least, a Bammer sympathizer.

Check out his little blurb about himself on SB Nation:

Jason Kirk
College Football Editor

Boycott This Bammer

My job is to make sure other people write about serious things and to personally write about stupid things, as you can see below. Go Falcons and Owls and no other raptors.


See? See that? No other raptors, as in no auNeck eagles. See?

Organize auNeck nation, organize. It's time to show those Bammers how strong we are in numbers.

Chipotle is fast food. In the fast-food category, it is good. Fresh ingredients, fast service, reliably good food. Their hot salsa is tits. Their rice is always fluffy and fresh with a little cilantro.

In the Mexican subset of the fast-food category, it's good.

Nobody should compare it to some sit-down authentic Mexican food place.

For $9, I get the ingredients I want, they're high quality, and it takes me 5 minutes to get my food. What's not to like about it?
