I can count two similarities between Hoover, Alabama, and San Diego, California. The first is that they’re both cities in the United States (middle of our Venn Diagram’s already looking good, people!).
The second is that they concurrently play host to marquee mid-summer events that always seem to bring out the craziest, most passionate people, who either don’t have day jobs or are employed by the world’s most easy-going, understanding bosses, who are particularly patient after photos of said fans surface on the Internet.
I’m talking of course about SEC Media Days, which is the San Diego Comic-Con of college football.
