I was looking so forward to telling how I was raised by wolves until picked up on side of the road by a poor cotton farmer who thought I could be trained to pick cotton.

You will now be known as
Dances with Wolves !!

The mountain vs flatland thing comes up quite a bit during the playoffs and already mentioned here but as far as comparing MA to Mtn teams in playing like them but in this game I guess it's what you consider mountain or not. Officially Mt Airy is in the Piedmont just one county to the east of being in the Appalachian mountain chain but I guess you can also look at elevation. Below 1000ft is usually concerned piedmont ( though some official App Mtn towns are) below 500ft we're pretty bad to call you flatlanders even though that's 400 ft + higher then the coastal plains counties.
You have the SMC definitely mountain teams being in the thick of the Appalachian Mtn chain but only one of the towns Robbinsville is above 2,000 ft , Mt Airy is 1,115ft, 489 ft lower then Murphy but higher then the official App Mtn town of North Wilksboro who's @ 988ft.
I don't for some reason I've just thought of Surry county schools like I do the lower Piedmont schools

The only amount of feet that will matter in this game is the 300 feet on the field and it's all level.

It’s really an attitude and the way you’ve had to live. Flatlanders got life easier. We don’t get anything given to us. We have to fight for everything. Most mountain families are either self made or trying to be. State doesn’t know there’s life past i85 so we grow trees and we work in mines. Very similar to life in eastern part of the state. Y’all got the triad and pumpkin spiced lattes and we have the mountains, hunting dogs, and grow up fighting for every inch.

I'm a miner myself that's how I make a living

 

[Old Mountaineer]

They have advertised all the games this season. I haven't watched any because I went to the games. All the equipment is there

Well they must just be advising it but not actually showing them because there should be some of the games on demand but the only ones that are were away games.

 

[JKVikes]

I hate to get away from this interesting topic on who's poorer the who...But I noticed that NFHS shows this game as an upcoming game but I don't believe any of Mt Airy home games have been on there before have they? At least there's none on demand.

They stream the games. I watched some of the Mount Airy game last night. I also caught some of the Murphy game.

 

[JKVikes]

They stream the games. I watched some of the Mount Airy game last night. I also caught some of the Murphy game.

And I watched the Tarboro game from the comfort of my home. NFHS charged me for another month so I feel obligated to use it.

Well they may not pay attention to us as far as roads and infrastructure as we may like but they know we're here, the purest Quartz in the world comes out of Mitchell county something they haven't beable to make synthetically though they try and the words computer chips can't be made without. Once they had a fire at one of the Unimin plants and homeland security was came right over though I don't why they think terrorist would attack such a place they like their cellphones and computers too.

Difference is you can go on nfhs and see last night's Tarboro game on demand none of the Mt Airy home games are.

Come to Mount Airy early and visit our Granite Quarry the largest open face Quarry in the world. The review below was posted by someone from Tennessee.

So large it can be seen from outer space!​

Review of North Carolina Granite Quarry
Reviewed April 1, 2017
The nice lady at the Mount Airy Visitor's Center encouraged us to visit this quarry. It is about 2 miles out of town but very easy to find. Just look for the large NCGQ sign out front. Turn left and drive a small distance to the quarry office on the left. Go inside and pick up a very interesting booklet on the quarry and well as a really cool square piece of granite actually made at the quarry (free)! From there you will drive another small distance to the observation area. The admission is free but please stay behind the fence. This place is HUGE! It is one mile long and about one-third mile wide. We were told that astronauts use the quarry as a "landmark" to view from outer space. Several famous buildings and monuments are made from the granite here including the World War II memorial in Washington, DC.

All of the massive equipment in use looked like little Tonka toys in comparison to the size of the quarry. The granite goes about 6,000-8,000 feet deep and there is enough granite to mine for another 500-600 years! This place is a must-see on your visit to Mount Airy.

If I come which right now I'm planning to but it'll be just anytime hopefully to get a good seat. My youngest daughter who I've seen once this year is coming in for Thanksgiving and I want to spend much time with her as I can.

 

[Mhsneer]

Sound like you’re the socialist. Crying about the state not acknowledging your existence.

No. We just don’t like handouts.

Prayers for safe travels for your trip here and your daughter's trip to see you.

 

[Purple1995]

Same color and size as yours

Mine is plastic lol

 

[REWhitley]

Socialist. Lol.

I think these two games will be dog fights for sure. It’ll be interesting to see mt airy. Looking forward to going up there. Where’s the best hole in the wall place to eat?

Harry's in Elkin is the BEST Whole in Wall but if you are not that at 5 PM when it opens you will wait and hour and be late for the game. Mt Airy plenty of easting establishments but not any famous hole in wall type at night.
The Derby might come the closet to that, 80 plus years old and good family style food.

 

[Thunder_struck8712]

There isn't much of a difference in the demographics and struggles of the people in the western reaches and Surry County. Sadly Surry has the highest opiod overdose rate in the nation.

Right at a 1/3 of Surry is in the Blue Ridge Mountains with the highest peak being Fishers Peak over 3200 feet in elevation.

 

[Mitchell county mountie]

Alright guys, enough of the passing match over who is more oppressed. None of us live in Raleigh, Charlotte or Asheville, so we all get cast by the wayside.

 

[Mhsneer]

I think our little county has more freedom than most Mountie

 

[Mitchell county mountie]

I think our little county has more freedom than most Mountie

Indeed. We are secluded, and it's live and let live around here. It infuriates the yuppies when they call 911 about gunshots, and the dispatchers laugh at them.

 

[ItsATrap]

This game will be a game of who has the ball the most and hang into it. I know Mitchell is well coached and don’t beat themselves. MA does have a few athletes and I’m not sure what Mitchell has in regard to athletes. I’m sure Mitchell will be bigger than MA. I’m going with Mitchell 27 MA 24. Best of luck to both teams.

 

[Wildcat10fan]

I know Mt Airy isn’t E Randolph &
I know Mitchell isn’t Murphy BUT all that speed & athleticism didn’t help E Randolph
Mitchell will win this game

 

[Mhsneer]

Mt airy is way better than er

Did you end up being good at it? Just curious you never said. Figured it was pretty close to pulling tobacco leaves I was a pro at that.

 

[WickedStix9]

How would we know…. They have hardly played anyone

 

[WickedStix9]

Mt airy is way better than er

Willing to bet Mitchell takes care of Mt. Airy

 

[gdawg74]

What cha thank wicked , the bears should just stay at the house on thanksgiving at home. Save the mountaineers a little Gas money. I have a feeling you could be a little surprised around 10:30 next Friday night.

 

[buzzcoach]

Mitchel guys are little idk.....

 

[gdawg74]

Whatcha thank buzzz , should the bears even show up to play this elite team from ledger?

Probably not. Save yourself a trip.

 

[Doppleganger#]

Listening to the radio announcers for Mitchell County football sounds like cast members from the Andy Griffin show. I would like to watch this game, but can't make it. MT Airy finally playing competition.

No. But I do think Mitchell wins. But you know what, I think Robbinsville would love a shot at the Bears.

I get the feeling you don’t wanna play a SMC team. Better lose this week then.

Mayberry folks would try to steal our announcers if they heard em lol

 

[gdawg74]

Don’t want to play a Smokey mountain team , smh, have you looked at the bears head to head against the smc. Please understand I am def a fan of the smc and the tradition, but bears tend to fair pretty well against them.

 

[wncbowhunter]

Whatcha thank buzzz , should the bears even show up to play this elite team from ledger?

Let’s see so far from Mitchell fans, we have:
-Going on a Bear hunt, not scared.
-Not a dang word about MA
-Fells like Mitchell upset Tville
-others bragging on Mitchell
-Blowhard bowl
-Don’t upset TD
-crap conference how will MA react To being punched in mouth?
-Bears unknown due to competition
-everyone pounding chest
-Lots of back and forth on Mtns vs foothills and quartz, Nothing about football
-all about matchups
-comparing to 2019, yes, no, maybe
-pretty even due to weaker schedule
-eat cupcakes in regular season
-silver spoon
-NFHS
-Robbinsville
-dog fight, hole in wall to eat?
-want to see big hole in ground
-plastic
-making fun of yuppies
-Mt Airy way better than ER
-Mayberry gonna steal our announcers

Personally I don’t see a lot of chest bumping and bragging here from Mitchell folks. I think we all feel like this will be a huge “hill” to climb. Is Mitchell in Awe, naw they aren’t. Will they show up and play there guts out. I have no doubt about that. Will it be enough. I don’t know.

Lots of talk about the MA bragging but I will admit I don’t care who MA has played to only give up 25 points this season is dog gone impressive. Hopefully the Mitchell line will give, 2 and 22 a crease to run through. For Mitchell to win I think their Defense will have to be lights out to keep the score low.

Man hope I can get off work early enough to get there.

Go Mountaineers

Cool, that’s 300 feet lower than my house. Didn’t know Surry was that mountainous
