Message: [QUOTE="HuskyHawk, post: 2747400, member: 1414"] It's entirely different. When you go to Taco Bell in Lawrence on game day they are wearing KU stuff, not Taco Bell logo clothes. That's an example. The whole town is like an extension of the school in many ways, and it's a much, much, bigger town. The truth is, that west of Iowa street (a major dividing road on the edge of campus), is largely nice, new homes owned by Doctors, lawyers, professors and the like. Students who venture to that part of town need to comport themselves as they would in any upscale suburb. East of Iowa is campus and lots of homes adjacent to campus and downtown. It's dominated by the school entirely. Certainly there are nice restaurants downtown, and the regular residents go there. But there are loads of college bars as well. This really shows the difference quite well [URL='https://ftw.usatoday.com/2018/03/kansas-villanova-lawrence-police-final-four-twitter-tweets-reaction-college-basketball']Lawrence Police was hilariously tweeting Kansas fans through their Final Four sadness[/URL] And they allow this when they win.
