Fame for the Chesapeake!

Apparently Tangier Island- a small island in the middle of the Chesapeake Bay- has been made famous by ESPN3 as having the largest number of sports fans...per capita...all 507 of them...
Tangier is mainly accessible by the water (although the airport is new in recent years), has no cars on the island (everyone drives golf carts) and has a one room school house.  They are known for their continued use of old english double negatives in sentences as well as their seafood (mainly blue crabs).  This link is a good synopsis one, but lots of hilarious bonus footage as well.
Kudos to Kristen for finding these videos- I've been laughing all morning and thought I would share. Enjoy!!
