I know plenty of people in the Boro.lol I know plenty of people who go to UNCG.

Lol. Yeah, the 'boro started to grow on me recently. I love Winston. One of the more eclectic cities in NC. The Triad has done a great job in preserving a lot of their historic architecture and have a very great arts vibe. Of course, the Triad isn't for all, but it does house one of the best zoos in the nation. Take that Texas! Lol.

The Texas Triangle is far superior- The Piedmont would have a hard time holding its own against Austin, the smallest city in the Triangle

Wrong on both accounts. Atlanta alone destorys Austin and Austin is far from the smallest city within the triangle.

I am actually surprised that a Texan refuted this claim. But, that shows that there is some sort of respect between the two areas. I think people need to read the first post and understand what this thread is about.

I'm from Austin and I will tell you right now that Atlanta is far superior in about everything except Mexican food and college football.

I love this statement. We'll give the Triangle college football, but college basketball belongs to the Piedmont.

I think that what he is saying is that ATL is ahead of Austin, not ATL is ahead of the Triangle.

But agree with you on the CB
