Starkville is an Indian word for trailer park.

A tornado ripped through Starkville and did $1 million worth of improvements.

When you check into your hotel in Starkville, make sure to ask for a room without a view.

I'm getting old. Remember any more?

8:45 AM Update - Skip on 104.5 radio just said... "At the Starkville High School dances, the school provides daycare."

"One weekend when we were playing in Starkville, Ron Polk invited me over to see his new home. He was especially proud of his sunken living room. I didn't have the heart to tell him the only reason he had a sunken living room was because one of his tires was flat." - Skip Bertman

"My first time to go play in Starkville we took a team bus. It was during mid-term exams so all the players brought their books to study on the long drive there.

As we crossed the state line into Mississippi a Mississippi state trooper stopped us and charged us with trying to smuggle books into Mississippi.

We were able to get the charges dropped because no judge in Mississippi had ever seen a book before....."

There's only one beauty parlor in Starkville. And they only give estimates.

The difference between Starkville and a cup of yogurt is that the yogurt actually has a living culture in it.

Ron Polk kind of had the last laugh on Skip.

After Skip had announced he was retiring after his final season, LSU traveled to Starkville for the regular season three game series.

Polk told Skip he was going to have a short ceremony before the last game to honor the Skipper and also to present him with a gift.

As Skip and Sandy Bertman were standing in front of the LSU dugout to start the ceremony, the outfield gate opens and in comes Polk driving a brand new Cadillac with a huge red ribbon on top.

Skip and Sandy just lit up when they saw it.

Polk drives up in the shiny new Caddy, gets out, walks over to Skip and hands him a mantle-type, wind up chiming clock, gets back into the Caddy and drives back through the outfield gate.

Skip was left in front of the dugout holding the clock guffawing.....

Skip told a story about Ron Polk having trouble selling his house in Starkville after retiring from MSU. Skip said, "Well, no duh!"

Really? I am sure Polk would have given his left nut and that joke back on Skip for "1" championship.

This actually happened when Ron was in Athens. I don't think Ron got the last laugh. Skip called his shot. Saw the car in the parking lot and told the players he would drive it out and try and give him his shitty cigars. He was almost right.

That's right. And then Polk went back to Miss State the next season after that happened. Thanks for the correction.
