    Is it just me or.....

    ....does anyone else want to move back to Starkville now?

    Maybe get a nice place right off campus. Start a fraternity.....

    These two weeks have been crazy. But the restaurant thread........ Back in my day, the egg bowl on campus and UF on a Thursday night was the height of football excitement. Tailgating was for only those guys on RV row. The best restaurants were Harvey's, CJs pizza, Danvers and there was a log cabin Burger King. Night life was cheers or the cross roads or Columbus or crashing someone's party in College Station.

    To be 20 years old again......y'all live it and enjoy.

    I did 4 years ago and will never leave again. Of course i grew up here. I was also gone for 20 years. But this is as close to heaven as earth gets.

    I live a little over an hour away. It would be great to actually live there though, so I could attend more basketball and baseball games

    I stole a set of salt and pepper shakers from Danvers the last night they were open; met my wife at The Club (W girl of course); and learned how to spin a warm beer on ice to get it cold on the way home from Sack n' Save. It would be awesome to move back when I retire just for the sports.

    That brought a smile to my face. Haven't heard that one in quite a while. Spinning a hot beer. 5-7 minutes and its good to go. Less if you are really thirsty.

    I moved back 2 months ago. Perfect timing I'd say. I can't wait to be able to go to every basketball and baseball game I want to. However, it's definitely not the same as actually being in college. Being a student right now would be amazing.

    I've been gone for three months and I've been depressed every day since.

    I've been lobbying my wife to try and get a job at State. She will finish her first master's soon but she likes where she is right now... Been about 15 years since I lived there.

    When I graduated in 2001, I mostly hated the town of Starkville. It was pretty bare, and the town was doing nothing to embrace the School.

    We now go to many baseball games and love spending spring weekends there.
