You Know You're From San Antonio When....

Everybody's got to be from some place and San Antonio is really no different than anywhere else.  It does, however, have a rather unique flare about it.  Here are just a few things that come to mind.

- It only costs $5 to park in a covered garage down town.

- Your neighbor is hosting a birthday party for his 5-year old and the host will have two kegs of Miller
   Lite for the adults.

- All the major television stations in town run the same story for a week about a man shooting his
  neighbors cat, while news coverage outside the county and nation gets limited attention.

- More images of the Virgin Mary are seen in tree stumps, bread dough, weathered walls and spilled
  paint than any other place in Texas.

- No meal or snack is complete without a quart of "Big Red" soda and a full package of tortillas.

- Driving in weather conditions that include rain, sleet and snow is unimaginable.

- Every 3rd driver on the road has grey hair, in a Cadillac, traveling no faster than 45mph in the
  "passing lane" and the turn signal has been on for the past 3 miles.

- You spend enough money on cell phones, tattoo's, alcohol, junk cars and tight fitting clothes that
   would support a whole village in a third world country.

- You think San Antonio is still a "little town" and not like big towns such as Dallas and Houston.

- Having to pay $8 for a 16 ounce beer at a sporting event is outrageous and requires the intervention
  of the parish priest.

- You were born, educated, married, raised a family, retired and died in San Antonio, but never once
  going beyond the city limits.

- You're an avid reader of the National Enquirer, Midnight Reveler and Jean Dixon physic predictions.
