That place looks awfully loud and Gamecock proud right now.
Y'all Still Think Greenville is a Tater Town?

Aren't you the oracle. I lived in Greenville about 12 years until I moved to Anderson (aka The Belly of the Beast).
Greenville is overloaded with urange. Especially this year. Greenville has a big Carolina fanbase. Unfortunately, we don't show it as much.
Gvl is about 55/45 Clemson. Still the best place to live in sc.
The amount of orange has a lot to do with us not winning.
And you would be wrong!!!
I'm from Chucktown, went to USC and lived in Cola for 4 years after school and now have lived in Greenville for more than 15 years. Yes, it's pretty near the top place on SC for me, but everyone has their reasons to have their own preferences.
Look I get it, it is cute. Gvl dressed up the old downtown and built a bridge. It is nice, but yes it would not be in any real top ten of SC.
Very clever.
There are 10 places on the coast and ten places in the mountains before Gvl even became a thought.
Greenville is very nice and there are a lot of USC fans in Greenville and the upstate.
Please name all 20 just so I know where my next home will be. Thanks.
For the love of Pete, Greenville's nice, Columbia's nice, Charleston's nice, everywhere in South Carolina's nice. Let's quit making this a pissing match about where the best place to live in our small state is and love the fact that we beat Duke and are going to the Sweet 16!
Just remember too...Greenville is a sports town for the Gamecocks, Charleston is where we go to relax....
Charleston doesn't have the atmosphere for sports like Greenville....

I've lived in Greenville County all fifty years of my life, and I have nothing but love for it! I remember when our downtown was {desolate} but I still enjoyed it, it's not only about our beautiful city, that makes this a great place to live, "it's the whole Greater Greenville area-that makes this place great!!
I have lived in Greenville most of my life and have traveled the entire east coast as well as outside the US and have yet to find a place that I would rather live than Greenville.
Oh and there are a whole lot of Gamecock fans everywhere here.

I've lived in Charleston and Columbia-- Greenville is sooo much better.
We had 4 times as many fans there tonight as Duke had. During the UNC game I thought they had a lot more fans there than us, but when we showed up for our game I think we had just as many.
We're just messing with you, man. Live/like whatever place you want.
But, seriously, SC doesn't even _have_ ten places in the mountains. And those it does have are mainly within the Greenville metro area.
I've always said that! It's not that we don't have a large fan base in Greenville, we just don't show up.
Oh, this (incomplete) list is about Greenville?

Heyward must have had a bad experience in Greenville at some point...G.A. is that you?
I grew up in the burbs of Greenville and while it has much to offer it's not a college town and that's what I love about my Columbia.
