You know you're an Adelaidian when...

Anything!

You know you're an Adelaidian when...

Postby Dogwatcher » Tue Mar 27, 2007 11:58 pm

You have been to the east end exchange at least once and you were under 18.

You have walked around Victor Harbour drunk

You have walked down Rundle Mall .... Drunk!

You know what fritz is

You call people Minda's

You have been to a movie marathon at Marion megaplex

You go out to the same place EVERY saturday night

You cant go out without seeing someone you know... even if you have never
been to that particular place before (even though you rarely venture from
your old favourite)

You really miss the old sizzler cheese bread

You like ugg boots not moccies

You have a very strong opinion on Lleyton Hewitt

You know who stormy summers is

You love cold rock ice cream and if you dont you love cibos instead

You know what fruchocs are!

You pour Farmer's Union Iced Coffee on your breakfast cereal.

You proudly admit your love of the Fritz Sandwich.

You're so caring and sharing that you have the urge to adopt other state's
cities as you own. (Come 'ere Broken Hill, let's hug.)

You will never forgive Melbourne for stealing our Grand Prix. Never.

You know how 'dance', 'pool', 'castle' and 'graph' are SUPPOSED to be
pronounced.

You get offended when people from Western Australia call SA part of the
"East Coast".

You insist on calling AMII Stadium, "Footy Park".

You say a Pie Floater tastes great just to maintain your street cred.

You consider Coopers to be a food group.

Your timezone isn't good enough for us.

While half of our state is uninhabitable, you know that it's still the
greatest.

You think the 'Tiser has no journalistic integrity whatsoever.... and yet
you still read it every day.

Don't believe the rumours. I live in South Australia and have never been
murdered once.

You vote for Mike Rann in every state election, mainly because you can't
remember the other guy's name.

You know there's more than one way to have a good time in Hindley Street.

One word: Haighs

You know that Victor Harbor is the only place to be for Schoolies.

France imports our wine. How 'bout them apples?

You forgave the Chappells for the 1981 Underarm Incident purely out of
South Australian patriotism.

So which is it? Crows or Port?

How many of the other states have a peninsula shaped like a leg?

You know the people out on the Torrens are either tourists or rowers. No
one else would go near that water.

You think the Festival Centre is a wonder of modern architecture.

Despite all our faults, at least South Australia wasn't built by convicts.

When you leave work at 5:15 and miss "peak hour traffic"

Your not scared by aboriginals walking around in speedos and gumboots

You like fritz n sauce sandwitches!!

You take 20 mins to get anywhere!!

Your 'sports gurus' are KG and Cornesy

You can pronounce 'Southwark' but know to not drink it.
You're my only friend, and you don't even like me.

There is actually three. There is one on South Terrace as well. I am from Hilton/Mile End and we used to call The Hilton 'the gentleman's club' because no women ever went there or 'THE Hitlon' LOL. Last time I went home the Hilton was a building site. I think it was pokie profits and not my prodigous drinking efforts in the 80's and 90's that paid for the rennovations.

Over $2M being spent there mate.At the moment its one bar and nothing else,will,in time,be a very good complex.

They have cut a giant square of the old carpet (with the roulette wheel and Hilton logo on it) about 2.5m by 1.5m and have had it framed.A $2 raffle will determine the winner.Would love it,straight to the pool room.

(REB and others I can thank(?) for introducing me to the front bar and its ways)

when u know who John Martins and Harris Scarfe are.....

Yoyo's are biscuits, not toys (or melting moments for those in victoria)

When you know that "Woodies" isnt the name of doubles tennis players, nor cans of bourbon

If you wouldnt go near a "Mars Bar" with a 10 foot pole..
