I have been through Augusta, but really don't have any personal opinions of it. Lord help if it's a bigger version of Albany!

Disgusta is the only one of these I have heard before... though "Agony" for Albany is pretty clever, and accurate.

The ones for 'Disgusta' are pretty brutal.

I think everyone who has lived in Augusta has heard these insults many times before, but these were pretty harsh. Even worse then when Bob Costas called the Augusta Natl Golf Course like "The Eiffle Tower amidst a trailer park" on his HBO show.
