Who else thinks that the original Rocky Top song is embarassing?

If you get tired of holding it, you could try a box.

No one in your average everyday urban, suburban, or even rural areas can relate to this song.

There is no one here that can relate to anything this song talks about.

Wrong, literally living the life mentioned in the song and relating to it are two completely different things.

If you have lived outside the South then you would know what I am talking about. I went to a party the other day and some dude form England asked me where I was from and I said Tennessee and he started doing a little jig and singing Rocky Top. Most people that I do business with have prejudices against people from the South. I normally just play it up and put on my best East Tennessee accent and tell then "we just got indoor plumbin' yesterdy yuck yuck"

My advice is to take you business associates out to the Starbucks and get yourselves some lattes. Obviously you would be happier with the bad jazz or whatever music they have playing there.

Really, if you are ashamed of where you have been, you will will have a hard time getting to where you need to be.

I think we should claim 'redneck' as a protected class and let the government do the rest of the work for us.

You're either proud of your southern heritage or your not.

next time some wanker from England starts talking down about the south, and Tennessee in particular, introduce him to Sgt. Alvin C. York. If you get a blank stare, point out further that the 101st Airborne Division saved England's collective, limey asses in WWII.

You could also do a bit better and not play into the stereotype. Nothing makes idiots like your English friend feel more superior than when they can make you feel embarrassed about your home.

"I went to a party the other day and some dude form England asked me where I was from and I said Tennessee and he started doing a little jig and singing Rocky Top."

1. Look him dead in the eye and with your thickest Southern accent say, "sir, it ain't nothin' for me to whoop a man's @ss...you mighta herd of me. No sir I haven't....well you're goin' to by God." (from John Bean)

2. Grab a shot glass and tell him you're going to teach him your favorite Irish toast. Hold your glass high with him and after the "clink" say "F*** the queen".

3. Look him dead in the eye and with your thickest Southern accent say, "my condolences to your mother."

Take no crap off a Yankee my friend...no sir ree...none...

Proud to be a southerner, however, I dislike the confederate flag wearing buffons. I hate the Rebel Flag.

I think certain people have ruined it by using it as a symbol of racism. Other than that i don't mind it. I love the south, I wouldn't live no where else. Besides Hawaii

I just gotta say something to this obvious non-East Tennessee native! Go back north where you came from since your ignorance about this part of the country is so apparent. If you had been born and raised here, you'd know better. You'd know that those outsiders who don't have knowledge of this area make fun of us because of their own stupidity and jealousy of us, and I say, let them swim in their own northern juices. Another thing, KrueVol, we're ALL damn yankees, but we're not all nothern idiots who've been educated in 3rd grade schools. I'll go so far as to bet you're originally from Michigan, or Illinois, or Ohio! Those are the ones who are moving down here in droves to get away from their socialist states that have created terrible economies with taxation and unionization. And they are the ones who set themselves up to be judges for the rest of the country when it comes to accents, education, knowledge, and making Conservative states red to hide the fact that it's the Democrats who are red.

And about Ol' Rocky Top as our fight song. I think it's far better than fight songs from the north. In particular Michigan's fight song is nausiating. There are others, but I think you get the picture.
