    Many years ago at my college paper, a friend of mine wrote a story about an upcoming game against West Virginia. He entitled the file "Hoopies Rape Sheep."

    Amazingly enough, this never did come back to bite him in the ass. But to this day, any time I see a reference to WVU, that simple phrase always pops into my mind.

    I know the Youghiogheny is nearby in Pennsylvania. The rafting there's supposed to be pretty good.
    I'm hoping to get in a three-day trip this spring, class 4-5, but that's out my my way. A long way from Morgantown.
    Anyway, Ohiopyle is there in the southwest corner of Penn. I think you can trips there that class 2-5.

    I think the movie, "They burn couches, don't they?" was filmed there.

    That made me laugh extremely hard.

    Be careful though. West Virginia has as many devout fans around here as The Sporting News. One. But he's vocal.

    Most "special" people are.

    Had an ex-girlfriend that attended Ohio U. When we talked about the college experience she never mentioned it was a party school. ::)

    There is a tractor in the parking lot, license plate E-I-E-I-O...
     
  10. Dude, you're a fan of all things Pittsburgh, and you're calling West Virginians hicks?

    Exactly.

    And hey, I'm not the the announcer who did that. I laughed like hell when I heard about it (wasn't there that day), but I didn't do it.

    Raise a flagon to Morgantown's finest.

    For the people who ride out the same lame ass West Virginia jokes, I'd put Morgantown's art district up against most college towns.
