There is not a day that goes by where I see an lsu sticker on a car or a lsu plate, lsu alum plate. I see at least 4-5 going to work on 65 heading in to downtown bham. today on a sunday, i saw 8 lsu cars. Hoover is loaded with lsu fans. I say we are close to being the number 3 SEC representation in hoover. Its close between us, state and the jorts from gainesville.

What about Tennessee? There was a sh##load of Tennessee fans in the Bham area when I lived there over 10 years ago. Next to maybe Mississippi State, Tennessee had the biggest local alumni chapter in the Bham area for an out of state school.

NASA, which first started in Huntsville before having its headquarters in Houston, was nice enough to let New Orleans have Michoud and Mississippi to have Stennis. Both those facilities are managed by Marshal Space Flight Center. You guys should be more grateful that Alabama allowed you to have a NASA facility.

Like I said some of my closest friends are bama fans. As a whole our fanbase can have issues.

Huntsville is the best kept scret in alabama. There is some serious money that flows through there. My wife works for a company that has made a fortune off of government contracts up there. you right about tenn. what was I thinking. You just don't see that many around imo but they are the 3rd largest sec alumni base in bham no doubt.

I was born in Huntsville in the mid 70s and it's truly remarkable how much that city has changed in the last fifty years. Back then in the 60s it was a city of about 40,000. Today the city is 175,000 that has a bedroom community/suburb of 40,000 (Madison). The area around Monte Sano and the neighborhoods in the mountain valleys east of downtown are beautiful.

I wonder how they think that's a taunt. Alabama is still playing. LSU is not.
