and about the comparison between college football and professional football dress. Those are completely different crowds, you wont see all the fratters out at a Falcons game when they go to UGA.

if you haven't noticed, the south isn't too known for their professional teams lol, the north and out west have us beat there. In the south everyone is stuck in the glory days of Herschel Walker's Georgia, Bear Bryant's Bama, etc.


its two different atmospheres that you can't compare. I feel like the NFL is always trying to make itself more modern with all kinds of sell out hip hop advertisements on that are just getting ridiculous, i feel like college sports and maybe the MLB are the only untainted things; which explains the traiditonal dress you don't understand. Its just how things are done.

Agreed. All we got is the Falcons and the Saints...Falcons and New Orleans fans are mostly either inner-city or otherwise.

College is important to Southern states because often it's the only "pro" team we have. The only chance we'll ever get to compete against Southern California (and get smoked) or other states. It's important. In most Southern states, on game day the Stadium becomes the 3rd biggest city in the state. In this sort of atmosphere, it's easy to see why we dress up.

It's like a civil war in Africa; you know, it doesn't really concern you too much. - P.J. O'Rourke
