Here's the dealy-o.
I am a midwestern gal.
Graduate and Alum to the University of Missouri.
I married a southern boy.
Born and raised Alabama fan.
In Alabama you have to choose.
When I moved here I remember that being the most common question I was asked.
"Are you an Alabama or Auburn fan?"
Neither - Mizzou (they had not a clue what Mizzou is)
Until now..when the University of Missouri decided to join the SEC.
Suddenly my Mizzou apparel that used to go unnoticed is now noticed.
Now around the house he might sport his Mizzou shirt (kudos to my brothers for hooking him up)
I wear my Alabama shirt.
I'll cheer for the ol Crimson Tide.
I'll be a good sport because I find it funny when my husband yells at the TV which doesn't happen often.
I do this because these southerners LIVE and DIE for their football.
And because it makes him happy.
I even went to the trouble of decorating our mantle with the Tide's colors, this year.
Next year I will find a way to incorporate some black and gold.
Don't mind the stache, its covering a hole.
Congrats again to the Crimson Tide.
And to the state of Alabama for defending the title for the last three years.
We already have HUGE plans for October 13.
We will be at the Missouri/Alabama game.g
I will be wearing my black and gold
He will be wearing his crimson and white.
A household divided.
