7. You still can't believe the Arena is gone.

9. You know at least one person who's gotten hurt at Johnson Shut-ins.
10. You know in your heart that Mizzou can beat Nebraska in football.

16. You can't think of anything better than sitting on the porch, in the
summer, during a thunderstorm.

24. Your favorite summer treat is handed to you upside-down.
25. You bleed Blue between September and May! (The rest of the time it's Red, of course.)
