PIC: Mississippi State Football Now Calls Its Campus “Stark Vegas”?

Ummm, MSU students were calling it that when I first moved there in '89. Not like its anything new.

Everything sports related is new to Larry.

It's Vegas with Cowbells.™

It's like Vegas but with more Mobile Homes and Less Teeth.

I just don't get it. How does Vegas fit into the equation? There is absolutely nothing in Starksville.

Humorous nickname that invokes irony. Been used for years. Guess some folk don't follow SEC football much.

They do the same thing with Nashville. They call Nashville- Nashvegas. Adding "vegas" to the end of any name makes me go a big rubbery one.

Starkghanistan.

Prime time journalism Larry. People have been calling it Starkvegas since before I was born. It's just a cool name. Not a reference comparing Starkville to Las Vegas.
