The state of Alabama is the real problem. Just look at their nickname of the school: the capstone because someone said capstone in the paper 100 years ago.

"The Capstone" is a nickname for The University of Alabama coined by former UA President G. H. Denny when he referred to the University as the “capstone of the public school system of the state” in 1913.


It is close to 100 years ago!

but Barner, Jorter, and Gump all have at least some BASIS..

corndogs is just stupid; I don't even think of it as a "slam".


I like corndogs! And the way they smell. It's like being at the fair. All fun and exciting! Good with beer, too.

Ya'll got me on those - I've heard of some of that but couln't win the board game that's for sure.

B10 Nics are very obvious

Bucknuts / sweatervests - easy

Sparty - easy

Illanoy - easy

Goofers - easy

Wisky - easy

Purdon't - easy

Squaks -

I know... which is what makes it stupid.

I mean, they could have tried to come up with something about RICE, or Soybeans or something like that. At least it would have shown some imagination.....

Dude I love corndogs.


This is the best the gumps can come up with? I mean what LSU fan really gets pissed when called this?

I would rather be know for corndogs than for humping my sister.
