I'm pretty sure that the math problem comment was in reference to preventing drunk posting, a la Gmail's Mail Goggles: http://gmailblog.blogspot.com/2008/10/new-in-labs-stop-sending-mail-you-later.html  No one's calling out your ability to solve basic math problems.

And this has been discussed multiple times on the board, any and all Michigan fans are welcome, not just alumni.

Most SEC fans do not respect the Big Ten.  I live in New Orleans, and I can assure you that most of the LSU and Tennessee fans are showing you that southern hospitality.  In reality, almost all of them think the almighty SEC is by far the best conference in the world.

On a side note, be careful with those Hurricane.  Those things are very sneaky.  You can barely taste the alcohol in them, but a few of them will lead to a "What the hell happened last night?" morning.  Be safe and enjoy New Orleans.  It really is an amazing city.

SEC fans don't really respect any conference.  I really don't care what they think to be quite frank.  That mentality might work on their neighboring ACC fans, but as a Michigan fan, I couldn't care less. 

I don't root for OSU when they play SEC schools.  But I'd bet you a Georgia fan would root for the Gators against any other conference.  That's just weird... and personally, I think they have a complex constantly talking about how great they are.  Let's Go Blue!

Sure, "only they can give you the 'hurricane'" ...but there's a million other bars pretty much across the street that are just as good if not better, and probably cheaper as well.

Some words of advice: you haven't really partied in New Orleans until you've arm-wrestled a bearded crossdresser.  You stick with those words of wisdom, you'll do alright.

If you find your way across the street, watch for the railing up stairs on the balcony.  Not sure if that part is still open but that rail was lose.....at least I think it was the rail.

Have fun man.

The reason why SEC fans root for the SEC against all other conferences is cultural/nationalistic -- it goes back to the fact that the South sees itself as a quasi-country.  We don't have that same sense of nationhood about the Midwest as a region -- though those of us who are Michigan natives might feel that way about Michigan as a state (e.g., I really dislike MSU but I root for them in bowl games).

If you get tired of Bourbon st. you should really try to see more of the french quarter. Ask around until you find a flaming dr. pepper, keep heading straight down Bourbon to run into French St. and check out the amazing local music, food, and bars that locals enjoy, and if you have a chance, walk a few blocks over to Port of Call for  one of the best burger/jacket potato combos you could ask for.

Hope you enjoy the rest of your trip!
