The Legend of the Jorts

Stay connected for news and updates

I just read this story regarding the origin of the now wildly popular jean shorts insult.  I have always wondered where the saying came from (and have always contended that there are just as many jort-wearing UGA fans as UF fans.  Some of the article is obviously written in jest, but I am wondering if there really is a Kevin Davis and whether he is the originator of the insult.

I consider Kyle the authority on all historical UGA matters, so I'm wondering - is it true? Or has the jorts insult been around longer?  I surely can't remember hearing anything of it when I was in school (c/o '93).   If you don't know the answer, we may have to consult Cale Conley, who is pretty much the authority on the World's Largest Outdoor Cocktail Party (although I beleive his book may have pre-dated the jorts era).

Enjoy your Homecoming this weekend,
