    Lots of State fans in Montana...apparently.

    Up from the Panhandle, staying in MT for the summer. For the month of August, we're two blocks down from the Bulldog Saloon in Whitefish. Been there many times over the years. They do have their share of MSU garb throughout but to balance it out a bit, there is a large Colonel Reb flag...

    Ask the Pack:OT: Best Place to Live

    First, I'll say, there are a significant number of remarkable place to live. Find your scenery, hobbies, events, people, activities and you're good in places all over the US. We live on 30A (save the jokes) and moved from P'cola/Gulf Breeze 3 years ago, after being there 27 years. Both of...

    OT: Anniversary Trip Destinations?

    Thanks Fellas A number of great suggestions. Santorini has always been on the list as well as the Virgin Islands. Petit St. Vinent seems to be along the lines of what we're looking for. We've been to Rome and Florence a few times. Love the wine, food, people, history but looking for a new...

    OT: Anniversary Trip Destinations?

    The wife and I are celebrating 25 years this December. Looking for recommendations on a memorable tropical getaway. We live on the beach in the Panhandle so prefer a non-US based location, maybe Caribbean - Turks, Virgin Islands, Aruba, etc.. Would prefer something a bit private. Maldives...

    TGIF: Where were you Oct 9, 1999,? (and then nsfw)

    Was on about the 45 yrd line surrounded by all Auburn fans of course. We had AU friends give us the tickets and I was there with a buddy of mine and our two girlfriends at the time (now wives). All the Auburn people around us were very nice, many older, and we ended up talking to various AU...

    OT: Glacier National Park

    Where to Stay? Many Glacier is the best but you have to book early. Lake McDonald Lodge is another but all the places inside the park book well in advance. Plenty of VRBOs outside the park and lends you the opportunity to see the rest of the valley. Can’t go wrong really. Whitefish Mountain...

    OT: Glacier National Park

    Glacier & outside the Park My wife is from Montana so we go back at least every other summer and stay in the Flathead Valley area (Whitfish, Kallispell, Big Fork). Went back in early July. I'll echo some of the other comments but Glacier Nat'l Park is about the most beautiful place I've ever...

    Pensacola

    BMT, Agree mostly with mcdawg Born and raised in Meridian but been in P’cola/Gulf Breeze 25 years. Tin Cow took a bad rap but given the press is probably the cleanest place in town now. Tons of burger options and one of my favorite burger joints in town. Global Grill is on the expensive...

    OT - What's the highest number of miles you've ever put on a vehicle?

    277k on a 2001 Tahoe I've had to put in two transmissions, one water pump, one power steering pump and the A/C control panel. Outside of that, she's been a gem.

    25 years ago tonight!!! Where were you when....

    At Two Sisters in Jackson Upstairs in the bar on the couch in front of the main tv, with the run of the remote. The place went crazy. Very unusual how those scenes stick in your mind.
