With all the election year hoopla surrounding New Jersey, they were quickly cementing their position as the most ass-backwards ridiculous state of the United States. Feeling left out of the fray, West Virginia upped the ante and threw the prestigious award for 2002 Armpit of the Nation into question.

West Virginia University beat 13th ranked Virginia Tech on Wednesday night. Shortly after the victory, West Virginians took to the streets in Morgantown. They drove around honking their horns, jamming traffic for hours. They proceeded to trash the town and set dozens of fires. Cars were trampled and turned over, store windows were busted, utility poles were set ablaze. Police had to use riot gear and fire hoses to disperse the crowd.

What makes this more interesting than most post-game riots is that it occurred in Morgantown, West Virginia, home town of the WVU Mountaineers. The game, however, was played in Blacksburg, Virginia, home of the VT Hokies. Still, that didn't stop drunken West Virginian's from breaking into their own stadium and tearing down their own goal posts. Despite all the violence, only three people were arrested.
