Polygamists Do It Better and More Frequently
Okay, I do have to tell this one good N’awlins story, bad game notwithstanding.
Number One Son was standing on the balcony of the Homewood Suites in downtown NOLA on New Year’s Eve carrying on a running cheer with Bama fans on other balconies and on the sidewalk below.
When they started up the “It’s great. To be. From Aaalabama…” chant, a Utah fan in the next room heard the commotion, came out on his balcony, grinned at Number One and started to scream, “It’s great. To Have. Tweeeelve wives…”
Good times. Not to be nullified in the least by a team which apparently left their best stuff in Atlanta and didn’t show up ready to play.
Hats off to those Utes. Polygamists do it better and more frequently. And that includes scoring touchdowns as well.
Roll Tide, anyway. See y’all on National Signing Day. This was merely a speed bump (and a wake-up call) on The Road to Bigger and Better Things.
