Why brag about it?

Lots of people who live in Provo (oops Alpine) choose not to go to BYU games for lots of reasons--but why brag about it? There are lots of reasons for not going, but I'm trying to think of a good reason for publicizing it.

No kidding. I've gone to many of the away games and few are as good as LES

BlackBart
