Reported for having a uga friend

I know you are goofing off...Unfortunately, he lives in Fairburn, Georgia… It’s kind of hard not to have Georgia friends. I’m sure he keeps them at a distance! @FairburnVol, Where do you live in Fairburn? I live in Newnan which is only about 30 minutes from you. I travel into Fairburn and all around that area frequently for work.

You are six days before my wife. Of course you’ve got about 20 years or more on her… LOL!

They can sell Columbia all they want but it’s the arm pit of the south and there’s absolutely nothing to do.

I'm sure this doesn't belong in this thread, but I just now figured out who you are. I lived in Franklin County and know your family. I actually attended Huntland for several years (few years before you) and my son recently graduated from there. Hope all is well!!

While I agree with your assessment of Columbia. Birmingham Al.has to be up near the top end of that scale.

With Alabama, it’s the whole state.

Except for Orange Beach

I live closer to the Fayetteville line, about 10 minutes from sandy creek. Yeah you can’t avoid uga or auburn fans around this area

In a nutshell it’s miserable. Not sure why anyone would willingly spend years there

Good one..

That's something I don't understand. I've been screaming about needing to listen to the experts and following precautions but I don't get making someone who has cancer or another life-threatening disease postpone or stop treatment because of the pandemic. They didn't stop treating people at the height of the AIDS epidemic and that was very dangerous to health care workers, especially with inadvertent "sticks" during medical treatment.

I’d like to know the percentage of this really happening. I have a friend who continued through chemo treatment and then had surgery last week. I think they even met a few weeks ago and changed course of treatment. The only thing he had to do was get tested to make sure he didn’t have the coronavirus. We have a cancer center here, and that’s all they do, so that probably helped.

B'ham is pretty alright these days. Cool bars, restaurants, music venues, etc. Its turning into an oasis in the Alabama desert.

If you’re a college kid it’s a fun place to be. It’s not nearly as nice as knoxville, but it’s better than places like Shreveport lol

Yeah, Avondale Brewing Company is a pretty sweet bar and concert venue at least.

The South Carolina Tourism Board invites you to come to Columbia: hey, it’s better than Shreveport!

yeah, but it's still in Alabama.

and that's really all you need to know.

Maybe, but think about all the Alabama you have to suffer through just to get there. Not worth it.

There’s one strip of bars, the stadium, and Frat/Sorority row.

Ohh and a run down bowling alley.

But by all means commit to South Carolina!

What?! Get outta here! What year did you graduate? I’m guessing you maybe had my mom as a teacher?

I know exactly where you are. I’m in that area lot too. It’s a small world. I always see a lot of Tennessee fans around here too.

I lived in both Knoxville and Columbia. While Columbia is better than living in the middle of nowhere, it is nowhere near Knoxville as a city. It is a smaller Knoxville with higher STD and crime rates. I do like Columbia’s downtown being more in the center though.

Not true. There’s two strips of bars! Plus there’s all the rivers around it. Good place to get turnt. They’re also doing some thing called soda city but I don’t care about that. It reminds me of early 00s knoxville. Pretty lame right now but they’re starting to get things going

 

[jakez4ut]

if i was gonna live anywhere in SC, Charleston would be 1st, Greenville would be 2nd.

if not either of those, i just wouldn't live in SC.
