EDSBS RADIO! ROAD TRIP EDITION.
What: EDSBS Live! online radio, presenting the Road Trip Edition.
When: 7:30 Eastern, 5:30 Mountain. All you rock people down at the Roxy and up in the Rockies, rock on!
Where: At NowLive, where you can chat with each other and the show hosts throughout the broadcast in the online forum. Or just call (310) 984-7600 to enjoy a five minute vacation smack dab in the middle of your work week.
Who: Clay Travis, who will be pimping his new SEC travelogue Dixieland Delight: A Football Season on the Road in the Southeastern Conference. We’ll dare him to tell us Florida girls have fat arms in person.
How excited are we? Hell, we’re wondering if we’re even the same girl we used to be. That’s Swing Out Sister/Dusty Springfield excited.
Our four questions for the show:
1. What’s the best road trip destination you’ve been to in college football? We must vote for Notre Dame, simply because for a sun belt naif like ourselves, any game without a jumbotron is a novelty. We second Tennessee, if only because we got spit on by a woman. That’s punk enough for us to love it
2. What’s the road trip destination you want to take most? We want Morgantown at night. WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO fire booze WOOOOOO!!! Hopefully, with some cooperation from our accomplices, LSU will happen this October.
3. What’s your essential road gadget? Besides the flask? For an SEC fan, a swamp hat of some sort. Sometimes the sun is enough to scorch a few brain cells out of your head on contact, and if you believe Jim Delany, we need to hold on to every last one.
4. What’s your most impressive road performance? Going to Nepal for a month and NOT dying of the turboshits. This seems to be an accomplishment, according to those in the know.
See you tonight.

1. What’s the best road trip destination you’ve been to in college football?
Probably Pittsburgh in 2002 – Not exactly a distance, but more tickets were sold for that game than were sold for the AFC Championship game the previous year – all Mountaineer fans… it was glorious.
2. What’s the road trip destination you want to take most?
Based on our schedule – Auburn in 2009. But just because I can, I want to go to a game at Ole’ Miss. I’ve heard good things.
We want Morgantown at night. WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO fire booze WOOOOOO!!!
Indeed, sir…. indeed. I would love to meet TCOAN.
3. What’s your essential road gadget?
My iPod
4. What’s your most impressive road performance?
Somewhere in Utah in June.

PJ @ #49: Last I checked, it wasn’t really a “series”, just an every-20 year or so thing. Not sure when the last time we played you guys before that was, but sure, I’d be for it. There’s a bit of history there–after all, we poached Ara from you guys in the ’60’s. I thought there was going to be a repeat with Barnett after Holtz left–I *think* I’m happy we didn’t do that, but it’s hard to say that the next two were a good decision. But hell yeah–Soldier Field was awesome. And the whole “Commander in Chief’s Trophy” is a little old, don’t you think? Navy’s a better program (at the moment) than Northwestern, and last year was the first time we’d played all three of the Academies in over a decade. Trust me, I’d be happy to drop Air Force and Army and pick up NU.

A Swing Out Sister reference. Awesome.
Oh, and for the record, UIUC. They can throw down in Champaign. Any town whose name sounds like a variety of booze is all right with me.

1) Tennessee. The whole fraking state is in the stadium, and I was given 2nd-row seats to the game by a random guy in Orange. Probably because he appreciated the ingenuity of my ad-hoc “Irish Elvis” duds, and couldn’t smell all the bourbon on my breath.
I expected Michigan to be awesome, but it was not rowdy at all by even ND standards. I imagine an SEC fan would fall asleep in Ann Arbor.
2) Between the hedges. If only because Keith Jackson made that phrase immortal.
3) Capilene underwear. No shock worse than when your ass-crack first hits the seat during halftime of a late November game in northern Indiana. The hollwed and ancient wood bleachers are petrified into stone, so it’s like a punch in the balls if you’re not wearing layers.
4) Said visit to Tennessee in 1999. I was an annihilated asshole stumbling around town, literally lost for hours in a bourbon haze. Couldn’t find our tailgater or any tickets after about 2 pm. I litterally stumble into free 2nd-row seats, get shit thrown at me all game by Tennessee fans, somehow avoid ejection, then weep as the Irish fold in the 4th quarter. Went to random bar after game, woke up in random outdoorsy place. And yet somehow I found my ride back to Chicago on Sunday.
