    Re: Delaware fans are like.....

    I can still remember when I was in the USAF.....I never met a person who was stationed at Dover that had a single nice thing to say about the place or state. These are people from all over the US. Take that FWIW.

        Honestly, is there a state that is less remarkable than Delaware?

          Been to both, grew up in Ia, trust me, neither one is worth bragging rights discussions.

            I grew up in DE, graduated from UD, and after I left for active duty in 1971, always said there were only two places in DE I'd consider coming back to live... Chateau Country, made absolutely grand with all the DuPont Megabucks going back into the 1700's, and Lewes.

            Greetings from Lewes!

              I have been living in Delaware my entire life, and I've never had a desire to live anywhere else (okay, so I wouldn't mind living in Florida) Delaware is nothing to brag about (except for the beaches maybe, but that's just me), but I love it here. The tax-free shopping is just a bonus. My dad works for the DuPont company and had to take a business trip to Iowa; he said it was great out there.

                Agreed Whitey. Sea Isle, Stone Harbor, Avalon are all nice enough, and perfect destinations if you're in for a little adult spring break style socializing. Maybe not nicer than some of Delaware, but no worse either, and more fun than and not as pretentious as the Hamptons.

                Actually, most of New Jersey is pretty nice...just stay away from Newark, Camden, etc. Far nicer than what I've seen of Delaware, but it's not like I've toured the entire place either.

                  DuPont, IIRC, owns Pioneer, which I think is HQ'd in Johnston.

                      DuPont still has a plant in Fort Madison.

                        the cockiest fans I've ever encountered. I understand that you've won a national title. Ok sure that's legit, but act like it. And complaining on their own board that UNI fans are just mad after a little trash talking? Save the trash talking for the game, if UD fans have the kibbles and bits to come out, I don't care if you have a ticket or not a TRUE fan would come tailgate, wouldn't they hens? Are you fan enough?

                          Actually Delaware has the beaches and it is within close proximity to DC, BAltimore, Philly, and NYC. Advantage Delaware......What do you have in Iowa? Davenport and the rest of the quad cities?

                            Translation - we don't have much, but we're close to some stuff.

                            I love that of all the places in Iowa to mention, it's the Quad Cities. They would be, of course, 2 hours from Chicago (if proximity is important), a superior city to each on your list not named New York.

                              You don't break out the Purple and Gold on game days or look for special gifts and gadgets bearing the colors because you want to be seen among the loyal. Purple and Gold aren't colors you see---they're colors you feel. They run through your veins with a continuous roar.

                                Deleware, a place where colonists paid Native Americans for their land.
