You enjoy professional wrestling and are attempting to have a conversation about class.

You, sir, win the internet.

Bama and it isn't even close. Class and Auburn should never be used in the same sentence unless it's addressing lack of.

Albeit a self-loathing Auburn fan at times.

Alabama probably has more crazy fringe types because sidewalk fans tend to support the bigger, better, less pretentious/deranged/cultish tree worshipping school.

Why don't you just say what the actual percentage is?

The trailer thing is partially true, thought it really isn't that many.

It does make for good trashy evidence, but in reality, probably less than 5% of those trailer dwellers have or ever will live in a trailer again. I never did, but I did go to a few parties out there, and it is pretty common to see fairly well off kids with their Z71s and BMW 5 series parked outside. It's weird, I admit.

And you sound like someone that cannot distinguish between real life and a virtual message board fan. I can split the two apart because this is pure entertainment for me just as professional wrestling is. I know it's fake but I enjoy the entertainment. Relax before you have a stroke or heart attack.

Wrestling?

Well, now we know that you're hurting AU's class rating.

I've seen little difference.

I've never had a bad experience with either.


Best friend is a huge Auburn fan, also.


I've been to BDS for games a few times...ALWAYS treated very well.


Every fanbase has assholes. I've never personally had dealings with any of those.

This is true too.

At face value they are very different schools. But down too it they are very similar schools.

Both schools recruit the same kids from the same cities, a lot of which come from outside the state of Alabama.

I actually hate pro wrestling. I was just giving an example. And yes, I even like seeing my fellow Auburn fans get worked up over such stupid internet postings. In real life though, I am a man of very few words unless spoken to. Good day

No. A minute amount would be at Alabama. I live in Tuscaloosa, and attended the school but I've never met any student who lives in a trailer. But I'm sure there are 1 or 2 somewhere. That's a minute amount.

I'm not gonna guess Auburn's percentage, but it is significant. Everyone who attended Auburn lived in trailers or knew plenty of people who lived in trailers. I personally know plenty of Auburn students who lived in trailers. Again, I know zero Alabama students who lived in trailers, and I live in Tuscaloosa.

I grew up in a half million dollar home, and loved my trailer.
