Just as the Terd fan was getting out of the roundabout, a car from Richland was coming head-on at him/her. Fun times! Keep your eyes peeled on the road any time Marshall comes to Athens.

I'm more surprised a Marshall fan didn't park in the middle of the roundabout.

All the roads go roundabout the mountains. We will get by. We will get by. We will get by. We will survive.

City planners figured there was already an operation in town that is stuck in a circular cycle-never going someplace new or better. ; ) Ohio-The State University Back to Top Jeff McKinney Moderator Member Since: 11/12/2004 Post Count: 6,155 Status: Offline     RE: Must be no roundabouts in Huntington    Posted: 3/18/2016 10:54:51 AM  This is too funny.

Those of us who have roots in the mountains can take a joke. I'm proud of my 50% WV heritage -- farmers from outside Pliny. My WV kin are some of the finest people around. They'd do anything to help someone else and don't hold grudges. Glad nobody was injured in the roundabout. Go, Bobcats!

I've grown to really love the Richland roundabout. They are very easy to use once you understand the principles involves, but they can be intimidating if you don't understand them and have little experience with them. At least every week or two I still see someone who is confused by the Richland roundabout.

I will not attempt to defend the intelligence of a Marshall Fan. However,the first time I drove through the Roundabout,I got confused. And I design intersections. As I said in another thread,in N.J., the trend is to replace outdated "circles" with signalized intersections,not Roundabouts.

No Cleveland professional sports team shall win a championship in its respective sport. Cleveland's done an outstanding job in observing law #3, especially the Browns.

My wife...who is from SEO and has a fit everytime we come to a roundabout ...which they did not grow up with in Redtown or Glouster,...has long heard my laments on folks down there who don't understand the concept of a roundabout and constantly STOP at the one North of Nelsonville and by the Convo when there is nothing in the roundabout or coming from any direction, pondering what they are to do . Meanwhile the rest of the world ...and Indianapolis have embraced the fact that you do not have to wait at a light or wait as idiots sit at stop signs not knowing what right of way means and who should proceed next. I say this as I was following an old man in a huge pick up truck that stopped in the middle of a Muncie roundabout to let the car coming in from the right go ahead of him. never argue with idiots, they bring you down to their level and beat you with experience.

If you want to practice dodging people who have zero driving etiquette (or skill) come on up.
