True southerners don't go to liquor stores. They leave money on a stump.
Actually we always got ours at the Barber Shop when they locked the doors at 5:00 PM.

That at least is in the realm of possibility. But you can't run moonshine on bicycles and we are not known as the Book of Mormon Belt. Besides almost everyone in the 60's that wore white shirts, black pants, and narrow black neckties and went door to to door in the South were FBI agents. It freaks out everyone here who has something to hide, and if you think long enough about it that is just about everybody.
We don't have sister wives in the South either. 3rd cousins are permissible. That's why most Southerners count their cousins to the 3rd position removed. You can't even slide with a really cute 2nd cousin either as we have standards.
Southerners drink Coke, not pop, not soda, not Coca Cola, but Coke. It may be in a Pepsi bottle but it's a coke damn it! Mormon's don't drink Coke. Therefore they can never put a small package of salted peanuts in the bottle. We don't trust people who can't put peanuts in a Coke and drink it.
In the South if it is not a Coke then it is definitely a mixer. Coke can be a mixer too, but it is the only soft drink. RC's are not a soft drink. They are a chaser for moon pies. Boiled peanuts do not go with RC's or Coke. You only eat boiled peanuts if you are drinking cold beer. If you don't know that then you are a Yankee obviously. Yankees that learn to eat boiled peanuts with their cold beer can be trusted, and may even be a convert. You don't talk to anyone who wants to know where they can buy sodas or pop!
If they try to put brown sugar in grits they are a Yankee and think they are eating Cream of Wheat! The only appropriate toppings or superfluous ingredients for grits are extra salt, butter, and of course cheese. If they don't know that they aren't to be trusted. If they don't know that and are wearing black pants, white shirts, narrow black ties and riding bicycles they are either Mormons or FBI agents whose car has broken down. Don't trust them!
So you see guys, B.Y.U. will never be in the SEC. The reason? They are not a cultural fit. Notre Dame? They despise the Big 10, have Irish ancestors like many in the South, tend not to trust central authority (like many in the South) and love football. They blend even if some of them are not cultural fits. And, more importantly like most Methodist and Episcopalians they will speak to you in the liquor store. Also, they don't ride bicycles.
This should all be on Wikipedia somewhere.
Living in the north, I only once saw someone put peanuts in a Coke bottle (at a gas station, so she was probably a transplant or tourist), and when I asked others about it, they hadn't heard of it.
