Another stereotype smashed
Bad news, bluenoses - the rest of the country is starting to figure out that Utah isn't as monolithic as advertised.
From The Birmingham (Ala.) News comes this news flash that not all Utahns are Mormons.
This, according to the article, is good news to New Orleans bars and restaurants, expecting an influx of Utahns for the Sugar Bowl on Jan. 2 - when the Utah Utes face the Crimson Tide of Alabama.
To quote from the article:
A note to Alabama residents: Many of these "private drinking clubs" also have indoor plumbing, and most have planks covering the dirt floors. Y'all come visit sometime.

To quote from the article:
According to the Salt Lake Tribune, Mormons made up 62 percent of the state's population in 2004, a figure that is shrinking. In Salt Lake City, where the university is located, it is less than 50 percent.
Private drinking clubs dot Salt Lake City, and there are plenty of non-Mormons to frequent them. Figure some of the same people will enjoy New Orleans' bars.
