Mac McClung, from Gate City here, won the Slam Dunk competition on All Star weekend. so cool to see locals score on bigger stages. been several kids from "podunk" rural schools in mountains here make it in the NFL. the morons writing about it on the 'net said that "Gate City" is a nickname for Bristol because it's the "Gateway" into the mountains. that would come as a real shock to folks actually from the town. that's like saying that Bristol is a suburb of Knoxville because I-81 passes through both towns, lol...
