Yeah, seems there’s always alliances to different things no matter the country. I grew up in NW Missouri near Jesse James home town. I’ve actually been in his house where he was killed. My great great grandfather was in the Texas state CSA infantry, joined in 1858. Truthfully it don’t mean nothing to me. When I was in high school the drinking age in Kansas was 18 Missouri’s was 21. So me and the Kansas boys did drink some beer together. Playing sports, the civil war wasn’t over yet but when it was beer thirty, it was “whose turn to buy. “

The booing anthems crap will fade. The rivalry will always be hot. Like the man said “ there just ain’t no forgettin.” 😁
