Their undeserved arrogance is the number one tradition among the confederates. My favorite joke is about two guys meeting in the Atlanta airport waiting for a flight. After chatting and discovering they were both from Mississippi, one guy looks over the other who’s wearing a very worn pair of overalls and has a dip, and asks, “I bet you went to State?”
The State guy takes a spit and asks “i sure did! How could tell?”
The OM guy says,”Oh I don’t know, I just had a hunch.”
The State guy says,” And you went to Ole Miss!”
OM guy says,”Why I certainly did. Did you figure it out because of my Brooks Brothers navy blazer, charcoal slacks and red blue rep tie?”
State guy says “Hell no! I saw your class ring when you were picking your nose!”
