When Throwing Rocks at Kids is Probably OK

Blogged under carter on Tuesday 26 May 2009 at 1:07 pm

The Utah/BYU rivalry runs deep in my family. My mom graduated from BYU, while my dad is University of Utah alumni. Needless to say college football season makes for a very tense household at the Nielson residence.

My brothers and I inherited my dad’s love of the University of Utah. I guess we know a good thing when we see it. My nephew, Carter, however doesn’t. Yesterday on our drive to the country I was trying to entertain him by pointing out silly buildings.

Utah Rocks

“Look, Buddy, Utah Rocks.”

“No, Aunt Sarah, it doesn’t. BYU does.”

“Um… I was just pointing out the rock gift shop, not college teams, but Utah does rock. That’s where I go.”

“Pfff…”

Every time you share me I won't punch a kitten!

    Looks like a rock went through the front window. That’s ironic.

    It’s a known fact that Utah is best. Mainly because their fans are louder and can use swear words without getting expelled.

    That building is in the town of Nephi on Main Street.
