Typical Alabama

There are few places in life I hold with more contempt than East Tennessee State University.

One of those is Samford University in Birmingham, Alabama. The school is abjectly horrible and the people who go there who think they are at an institution equivalent to Stanford. Low quality education with low quality people. Typical Alabama.

Apparently they also employ Barney Fife as a security guard.

Ah, when in doubt just say "It was...uh...a black guy...with a gun."

Alabama is about as dumpy a state as one could ask for, so I'd expect their universities and colleges to be no different.

I wondered internally if the reason why the security guy faked the report could be as awesome as possible, and "I wanted to be outfitted like a real cop" is pretty fucking close. The only awesomer reason I could come up with would be to impress some chick.
