giveaway, but I have to remind myself that not everyone lives in B1G territory where you gain a working knowledge of each schools' unique traditions from being surrounded by alums.

Anyway, having been an off-and-on season ticket holder for Gopher football and hockey over the past 20 years, I feel as attached to Minnesota as I do to BYU. Living in Minnesota and Chicago, my continued proximity to Minnesota rivals creates the same strong feeling of enmity as BYU fans living in close proximity to Utah fans.
