I actually think it's great that you do that. It tends to wake up and remind our otherwise comatose crowd (sans the students) that a rival is in town.
If it did bother me at all, it would be way down on the list of reasons why you people are sketchy. The apparent required wearing of jerseys, required ATV ownership, NRA membership and green tinsel hair are way above this.
When you folks look at the people on TV (not talking Jerry Springer Show etc), do you even realize that those people don't look or talk like you? I mean, when's the last time you saw a fat 40 year old woman in green spandex pants, green hockey jersey topped off with a mustache and she-mullet? (other than my mom, hahahaha...

)
You people are on par with Appalachians, rural southern folk, bums & hobos, everyone from Indiana, the Tea Party, Michigan militia and the minuteman movement. You are part of the redneck-hick, simpleton underbelly of this country.
So if it makes you happy to have you little customs, I say great. As long as you don't ask me to squeal like a pig.
