Oh the stickers are great...it's all about PR! Girls in the South in general, I think, are just raised to dress up even when we're dressed down. The grove is just another excuse to get pretty. This past year there was a group of guys from NYC that get together once a year and go to a college football game. We met them and invited them to our tent. They said they've been to games all over the country. They fell in LOVE with Ole Miss...they said now they are going to get together every year and come back to Ole Miss rather than ever go to any other school.
One of them told my mom after tossing the football around with me the thing he liked about me(a girl from the south) was that I was in my dress, my heels, drink in hand and I still threw the football 20 yards...I think they were just blown away that girls in the south get that dressed up for FOOTBALL!! A few weeks later those guys showed up at our tent for the LSU game...they said they couldn't wait another year to come back to the grove.
I know it makes no sense, but it's a tradition that I love! Wouldn't want it any other way.
