Personal winners in no particular order:
•"If I hear 'Walking In Memphis" one more time....."
•"..never been to Graceland."
•"...the best water. Artesian...."
•"...683-7000."
•"my ..... was related/girlfriend/friends of family with ......."

additional suggestions:
•worst tail-gaters, even worse than Nashville
•weatherman says it'll snow. Won't happen.
•'cause the river interrupts weather systems...
•Coke? What kind?

My favorites:

"Calipari wasn't even human - he didn't have a soul."

"I heard we got 15 of the top 20 recruits in the nation next year."

Wonder where he heard that?

That's what I do and I've lived in eight states since I left Memphis. But, I'm a Memphian and I wear it proudly. Despite some of you a-holes and King Willie.

That sounds like it should have been a Hendrix song.

It would have been a good Hendrix song. I don't trust anyone who doesn't know about Voodoo Village.
