When asked what I did, my reply is "I am in witness protection program".
Don’t forget about the USCjr grad that delivers y’all’s pizza!
So far I’ve met more Dawg fans than Gator fans. That said, it might just be the company that I keep!
Austin is a great place, unfortunately it’s changed dramatically since the 80’s and 90’s. Grown from an eclectic, mid size city to a full blown big city trying to figure out its new identity.
I grew up in Marietta - I live in Palm Harbor, Florida now. I love it down here - only negative is all the Gator fans. If you love to golf this is the place to be.
6th Street used to be amazing - not so much anymore. Sad to see.
I now live in the Sarasota area, though as a kid I lived in Athens and once played in a halftime kid's football game in 3rd or 4th grade between the hedges. I went to a Sarasota college 50 years ago. At the time it was independent but it went under long ago and was saved by the state to now be part of the Univ. of Florida complex. Despite that, they badger me for money all the time. But why should I pay extra voluntary taxes in effect to further support the Univ. of Florida system? I'm a Dawg fan to my core!
You’re right…the old 6th Street section where you would go to have a good time is referred to as “dirty 6th”; no reason to go there now. There are some places further down 6th, and South Congress is pretty cool, but it’s nothing like back in the day.
