They weren't just made fun of because they were from Lubbock??? Damn that's cold. Let's let them fall in our trap BEFORE we cut them down. New York, the thinking man's cut-you-down-to-size remark town.... or somethin'.

It took me a few weeks to get HOW-ston down instead of HUE-ston. These damn Yankees even had me doubting Sam had it right back home.
