You want to have them in mind and don’t ignore them. Like stars to steer by, they are permanent markers to direct us and keep us moving in the right course.
Live and eat by the rules of everyday Alabama living and things will go fine for you in dixie.
With that in mind, I thought of life in Alabama along with a number of of its unspoken “golden rules”. Listed here are 5 of the best “Golden Rules” which apply to residing in Alabama.
Golden Rule 1: You are either a Alabama fan or Auburn fan. No other alternative. You will discover that almost everyone you encounter in Alabama asks you who “you are for” in the Iron Bowl. The rivalry is hot, and you must choose sides. Bear in mind, if you don’t choose, folks will think you are weird. So, if nothing else, pick your favorite colors, crimson tide red for Alabama or orange & blue for the Auburn.
Golden Rule 2, You Have To Eat Grits… Grits are one of those terrific southern foods that you will find on the breakfast kitchen tables in Alabama. They’re simply delicious with eggs, sausage, and homemade biscuits..
Golden Rule 3, Attend Church. The reason that this is important is because at least twice a year, Easter or Christmas, people will need to see you there. Otherwise, expect to be asked to attend on a regular basis, because everybody knows everybody, especially in a small town.
Golden Rule 4, Be Polite! Here in the south, we treat people like we would like to be treated and will go the extra mile to help a stranger. . When we are talking to others, we are sure to say please, thank you, & you’re welcome when the need arises. Also, we address our elders by No Sir/Yes Sir and No Ma’am/Yes Ma’am.
Golden Rule 5, Love Alabama Based Music! You have to love any music that has something to do with Alabama. This would definitely include all the hits by the greatest country music band of all time history, the group Alabama. One song is especially near and dear to Alabamians, and that is “My Home’s In Alabama” . It is important because we love Alabama!
Follow these golden rules to living in Alabama and you will probably find your life here much better in the heart of dixie, and you will live at peace with most Alabama folks, except maybe the fans from the other team! Personally, I am a roll tide man, myself!
