Austin, when visiting before attending.

But I've also enjoyed:
- Tuscaloosa for Bama
- Pasadena for UCLA
- Bolder for Colorado
- Happy Valley for Penn State.

Florida's Gainville was the worst, traveling for an LSU game.

My degree from Auburn has helped me to be making a very nice 6-figure income. Nothing pitiable about that.

Fort Collins, CO. Lived in Denver for a few years and visited a few times. Fun town, good food, and great beer. Seemed a lot more conservative than being around all the yuppies and hippies in Boulder.

I’ve lived in College Station, San Marcos, and Athens and all of these towns were great but I think San Marcos is my favorite. Tons of outdoor activities whether it’s floating the San Marcos River or hiking. The bar scene is great at the Square and really good Mexican food and BBQ. Also you’re 30 min away from Austin and San Antonio if you want to get away.

Obviously it’s not a big destination for sporting events but with the football team getting some hype this year they can get a decent atmosphere

Not sure why everything has to come back to politics but if you want to spend your whole life getting mad about what people think and do that’s on you. Seams like more of a liberal quality in a person if you ask me. Boulder is great, hot women, mountains right there, good old school stadium.

I love the layout in Knoxville. The whole river front area right on the stadium. Plus I went in November. I don't think the weather could have been any more perfect.

Wasn’t even a statement on politics. Fort Collins is more conservative in general than Boulder. I’m sure Ft Collins has its fair share of politically left people but again, wasn’t talking politically. If you want a comparison, more like the hot slutty girl in high school that was fun to be around vs the more girl next girl next door type that would ultimately be the better choice.

Boulder
Athens
Cambridge
Knoxville

Most unrelated to the colleges and instead the areas/nature around them.

Austin good for some springs, bats, and bbq
