Well, except the Uh-Huh Guy. He was sober.

My sole interaction with Charlotte fans was informing a guy that Harrisonburg doesn't have a Bojangles. I offered Waffle House as late night drunk comfort food, but it just isn't the same.

The lack of Bojangles is one of the many reasons that the part of Virginia above the 460/360 line is really not in the south.

Anywhere you order tea and it doesn't come default sweet is not the south.

I would like to invite jmaddy and dirty to the rockingham county fair next year to tell the fine people of the Shenandoah valley that they are in fact from the north. I will not be accompanying you of course.

Oh, they already know. I told everyone in Harrisonburg when I was there. If I order a tea and you ask me if unsweet is okay, I'm going to put you in your place.

Bojanges isn't the North/South line, because there's one in DC.

Hardees is the true north/south line.

The true north south line is where people go from friendly to not so friendly

I'm not so sure about that. I ate at a Hardees in Breezewood, PA on the way home from Dayton last year.

The true DY/Southron line is the "tea line". When I ordered tea in Gettysburg this summer, most wanted to give me unsweet. At the Harrisonburg Chilies I was given sweet tea.

So instead of eating at the great local restaurants in Harrisonburg, you went to a chain? C'mon man.

Well much of MD is more southern than most of VA. Sort of like how Miami/Tampa is considered 'the north' by most southerners.

There's a Bo's in DC? Kind of shocked but not really, I'm sure the hipsters visit it daily because of the obscurity of it in the region.

This is hilarious and epically timed.

The actual desgin on court does look pretty good though.

Much to our surprise, some #badfans were able to see this up close and in person. Looks nice.

You used to not even be able to find sweet tea in the DC metro area; if you wanted it sweet, you had to ask for sugar, and places that offered it were selling nestea cans or bottles. Then McD's here started marketing it and it's now readily available at other fast food joints as well.

This was true only a few years ago:

Well, it was nice to meet you, then. Thanks for the info.

We stopped at Wal-Mart to buy dry clothes for the drive back to DC, Chipotle nearby did the trick.

Well, it's not a real Bojo. It's one of those Bojo Express things. No fried chicken = no Bojo.

It was fun jawing Charlotte fans. Have a good rest of the year! We'll see you again down there!
