I was in St George last week for my daughters college graduation. I haven't been in Utah since I graduated from the Y over 30 years ago. Anyway I was in a K-Mart and I noticed they had a section of T-shirts and stuff from the U but nothing from the Y. I thought that was odd, even here in KY you can find UK stuff everywhere you find UL stuff. Anyway while I was checking out I said I was a bit disappointed that they had U stuff but no Y stuff. The clerk looked at me with a straight face and said. This is a little far away to be having stuff from the Y. I should have kept quiet but I had to point out to him last time I was there Provo was closer to St George than SLC. Then he said well BYU is a church school and the U is a public school. So I played along and said , Oh so I need to go to the church to get the BYU stuff. Then finally he frustratedly said well the U is just a much better school. At that point I decided I had enough time arguing with an idiot. I guess not much changes in Utah over the last 30 years. I guess I was most surprised that they had stuff from the U but nothing from Dixie State.
Happy to be back home in KY!!! where the mountains aren't naked and the dominant color is green, not orange and brown.
Go Cougs!
