I'm surprised Oxford, Mississippi didn't make the list. This is where Ole Miss is located. I went to Grad school there and it's definitely a college town and area.

The town has a population of 20, 000 but 10,000 of that comes from the University, students and employees. When you get 65, 000 people at a football game from a town of only 20,000, people are coming out the sticks for the game.

Tailgating at the Grove is awesome. I actually owned a wine and liquor store while attending Grad school and gamedays made our year. I taught Physics there while in Grad school and the students were fun. They must have made a killing on merchandise because everyone would where their Ole Miss shirts to class

Everybody would party in the Oxford square where they had restaurants and good nightlife, clubs or stay in the Grove. The students would where Sportcoats with a tie and of coarse the girls were dolled up for the games.

It was funny to watch them come in the store after the games all wasted. It gets my vote.
