I will be @ ground zero in Lexington for the rest of the Tourney.

If we lost to Loserville, it would be worse than losing to Western in '71.
That said, we have already beaten two of the three once.
You can tell its been a bit since we last won the Championship. The youth don't know how to act.
Quoting one scholar in the paper today, "we'll be drunk all week.

Not because of the Tourney.

They're just that way anyway.

Since you're in Lexington, could you pick us all up some 'que?

Thanks in advance.

Not the little NC town that hosts the world's largest barbecue festival.

Y'all got any good restaurants in your Lexington?

Stand bys include, Vienna Sausage, pickle dog, & pickled eggs (a boneless chicken dinner).

I know a bit about good restaurants but I know shitloads about great ones.

That trend is the worst thing that ever happened to 'Que.

Some bean-counter (probably from New York) figured out that it's more efficient than the labor-intensive method of using wood chips.

Once one joint started doing it they all had to, just to remain competitive.

It's an abomination, even if it does save trees.

Sorry, had to get that off my chest.
