How much did this cost Big Sister?

Good thing Boston didn't have any levees to deal with...also, Big Sis was out of the Regional before getting a chance to "square" off with Boston College - so there was never really a chance to toss a ball at them mentioning things such as Superstorm Sandy, the Boston Marathon bombing, the Boston Massacre, the great molasses disaster, etc. In that way, these Boston College fans were fortunate. That crowd lacks class.

I think after this past weekend, everybody will be begging to play a regional in Oxford: hospitality without the home-field advantage.**

 

[bulldognation]

True. If they'd had to face them on the diamond I'm sure the "hospitality " would have tapered off.

 

[tatedog]

Exemplary cooperation.**

Yeah, but the Bears have to be careful. If a whole slew of people come there to win games, then they might be so awed by the beauty of the place that they move their permanently. Then there goes the neighborhood. They'll have to be selective as to whom they invite.

 

[DudyDog]

If they had played BC, somebody probably would have thrown a backpack in the dugout with a baseball in it with writing on it.

I said ontRant the other day that Ole Miss' regional was not about wheather or not they won it but what the people from Boston thought about Oxford and if OM was hipster enough.

Have you ever been up North? People are not hospitable generally, anywhere in MS compared to Boston makes us look like the friendliest bunch of people on the planet. Not saying there aren't good folks up there but don't expect anyone to even say hello to you much less hold open a door for you.

No one saw this coming**

My personal experience found Boston folks to be very friendly.

Somewhat small sample size. I was up there a few years ago for a week of training. But folks at bars, cab drivers, hotel staff, etc were very nice.

Before going, I was expecting the New York type environment which in my two trips there was mostly unfriendly.

That poor BC coach has no idea what he witnessed. This is mostly an act they put on to impress visitors. Certain visitors, not just anyone from out of state. In other words, most of them arent gonna roll out the red carpet for a South Alabama or a La Tech, they're beneath them. And I'm not saying none of them are genuine, but this is mostly a facade put on to receive some positive publicity. It's fake snobbery ******** and it's what Ole Miss has been known for as long as I can remember.

"Gambino added that he was really just upset they didn't get to meet Katy Perry while visiting campus," but that otherwise everything seemed exactly as it was portrayed on College Game Day. View attachment 4212

I've found Boston chicks to be pretty easy. I was at the Brickskeller in Georgetown one night when we were visiting DC and let me tell you. Boston women LOVE a southern gentleman.

They'd probably be throwing pressure cookers on the field with snaky Sharpie notes on the sides.

Manieri ejaculated out his mouth one year too about how great Stark Vegas was after bringing an Irish team to a regional here and look what a whiney ****** he turned it to be be. Everybody is rude to you up North, all it takes is somebody cracking a smile at a fvckin Yankee visiting here and they think they've met Mother Teresa

I've spent a bit of time in Boston also and found the folks there to be very friendly. Went to a restaurant near the Old North Church once, had lunch and ordered iced tea. The waitress said, "We only have sweetened iced tea. Will that be alright". I told her yes.

Also went to the July 4 fireworks on the Charles. It was absolutely spectacular, and they had the Boston Pops in the shell. They really put on a show, but then that's sorta the birthplace of it all. All the folks sitting on blankets around us were very friendly. It's a great city, my favorite big city in the northeast, and it doesn't seem all that big. Philadelphia sucks though and I've spent a LOT of time there, the historic sites notwithstanding.

Yes they do. I guess they're not used to being treated like a lady and they crave that sort of thing, genetically.

Remember how orgasmic they got when Texas came in for a FB game a few years ago? They were literally gushing.

I wonder if the good folks in Boston know that OM thinks of themselves as "The Harvard of the South"? And it's not even remotely comparable.

 

[MedDawg]

Gambino was a scout and is familiar with OM...

A friend of the family moved to Boston after graduating from State. She calls the locals Massholes!

 

[Sutterkane]

I remember when we sucked during the Croom years everyone talked about how nice our fans were.

 

[InTheIttaBenaHotSun]

Been to Boston once....people were ok for the most part but had a really bad experience with some local Red Sox fans at Fenway. And we were rooting for the Sox too.
