We need to start thinking of MSU/Starkville as the Golden Triangle Region, which includes Columbus and West Point. That would encompass more restaurant and tourism options. Old Waverly, Columbus Lake, the Tenn-Tom, GTR Airport, Noxubee Refuge, Mossy Oak, Columbus AFB, etc. Even the Pony. I know this is sort of an off-shoot of the thread but your mentioning of Anthony's made me think about that. I was always for the merger of MSU and MUW for this reason. Gives us a bigger profile. Everything in Oktibbeha, Clay and Lowndes County should be considered 'MSU'. We need total cooperation between all three counties and their county seats.
