Both sides of my family were some of the first white settlers of north-central Georgia, and not many of them have left over the years, and I know a lot of my 5th and 6th cousins, but I don't think I know 405 family members.

No way in hell would I want that much family. That’s going to a huge dent in the Red Elephant clubs budget paying for all those tickets.

I am sure this is all perfectly legal and not against any NCAA rules.

How many tickets is Alabama allotted? Is demand so poor that tickets can be easily had?

If all 85 players brought 400 family members that is 34,000 people. I bet this is a case of Animal Farm where some pigs are just more equal than other pigs. (I think I quoted the correct book)

Going to be a nice, Hawaiian party I guess.

Well the family tree does not fork in Georgia so you really know all of them.

An ince$t joke. That's original, but not surprising given your well demonstrated very limited mental capacity.

But when you're right, you're right. The closer the kin, the deeper in.

Nope. That's only true in Ohio, Louisiana, and parts of West Virginia. (The parts along the Ohio & Kentucky borders).

Damn, the Tua family is about to spend $50K on tickets? And I’m being conservative assuming they’re buying the cheap seats. Do they own a massive pineapple plantation or something?

Holy shit I didn’t even think about hotel rooms.....

A lot of Native Hawaiians also have family on the West Coast -especially California- so there's a good chance some of those folks are local. And that number may be somewhat inflated, according to how some people define "family." It might also include close friends, former classmates, teachers, doctors, neighbors, etc.

I know a lot of Poly guys from rugby...I've never met two who couldn't find a connection, it's like the Kevin Bacon game on steroids. One of my friends said there is a huge contingent going up from LA. My friend is Tua's "uncle", also a St. Louis grad and played DL at Utah, they have a different concept of "family" than some of us, and a strong sense of community, it won't matter if they're Tongan, Fijian or Somoan, they are all going to be related to Tua come Monday night. I have a feeling 400 is going to be on the low side with tickets as cheap as they are.

Anybody that has spent any time in Louisiana or Oklahoma knows that these two were just mimicking what they see out their front window...assuming sister/mom lets them look out the window.

Given that for generations many families lived and died within 30 miles of where they were born, I suspect a lot of people have less than the 64 great great great grandparents they should have.
