Oh by the way- let me be the one to submit Mark Schultz of Foxcatcher fame's name into this thread. Turns out he's LDS. Guess that was a no-brainer seeing as how he was the head coach at BYU for 6 years, but I don't remember that fact ever being brought up.

I noticed when he submitted a "correction" post or whatever online about things the movie got wrong, he did note that when Channing Tatum is drinking it up w the other wrestlers it was inaccurate due to his never having touched alcohol in his life.

dabrockster definitely brought that up.

Ha. You vegas guys are cracking me up.

As told to a Utah newspaper, for a Utah audience.

I don't think he converted until he was in his 30s, so the teetotalism came from somewhere else.

ID totally started in Provo. It was Reynolds, Sermon and Tollmans all in Provo (3 of 4 BYU students at the time). Tollmans left, they went to vegas and hit it big. Tollmans wanted back in and Reynolds told them (rightfully so) "no dice".

I was exiting the Provo scene as ID was coming in. I met them way back in the day. They played the same venues and recorded at the same studio. ID started in Provo and the roots for their success were planted there.

When a decision is reached which city gets to claim that shitty band, let me know. It is very important to have this answer

Watch it!

falafel struggles with good information. He still doesn't understand where The Simpson's are from.

You only wish it were Salt Lake City. They are from the sister-cities of Las Vegas-Provo. 😏

Finally, some good impassioned debate on CS!

A push by Hershey Co. to gather data on the nation’s candy-eating habits has uncovered the sweet-tooth capital of America: Utah.
The state buys confections at the highest rate in the nation -- almost double the U.S. average -- Hershey researchers found. Twizzlers are especially popular in the Salt Lake City area, according to the company.

One would think there would be some obesity going on in Utah with all that candy eating but it doesn't seem to be the case, however.

It seems what mom told me about eating candy and getting fat isn't really true. Or maybe they send large amounts of candy to missionaries and don't actually eat themselves.

Thank God for all that fasting.
