"San Antonio" or "San Antone"

[TXs 226]

What say you

[NotActuallyALonghorn 4,976]

Depends on how lazy I'm feeling or whether or not I'm talking to my Mexican inlaws.

[Hate 20,120]

SA, ese.

San Antonio /SA Native

[futureman 22,494]

taco town

[Fuck Tim Beck 3,834]

Always San Antonio. Unless you are singing Amarillo by morning. 

[rage-a-holic 4,407]

San Mexico

[Hairy Biped 586]

I lived ther for 10 years and nobody from San Antonio calls it San Antone.  I learned that quickly when I first moved there.

[kingkoopa6 8,372]

Countdown City

[SurlyBDR 22,808]

 

[ztejas 43,495]

Unless you're a fucking hick white guy or a country musician trying to play on the "Antone" rhyme it's San Antonio. 

[Radical Larry 28,648]

 

Dudley and Bob listener?

[SurlyBDR 22,808]

With Matt, sir.

[Radical Larry 28,648]

And Daniel and Chuy.

[Topper13 3,375]

 

[Armybrat 40,851]

Chili Switch.

[Dolemite 143]

 

[phdhorn 6,224]

"San Antone" = "Red River Rivalry"

[NeverMarryAStripper 21,909]

[miguelito 11,266]

San Antone is only acceptable to make a rhyme in a good song.  Otherwise it deserves a kick to the shins and or groin, and 2 demerits on your Texan card.

[Nivek 16,946]

san stripmalls and stolen cars.  

[ChickenSandwich 9,843]

There are many assholes named Antonio. Not as many named Antone. 

Advantage Antone 

[RDCanecutter 26,454]

Yanaguana.

[kingkoopa6 8,372]

SayTown

[RDCanecutter 26,454]

San Antonix. To be inclusive.

[demos 3,004]

Depends on the song I’m singing along to on my iTunes playlist.

Both.  

[workswithseed 2,112]

Both as well.

[MNLonghornFUKM 8,817]

must be  a yankee thing. My grandmas from Corpus, and my mom always calls it San Antone 

[HornsOverIthaca 2,335]

I only call it San Antone if I’m referring to it as a “fine gamblin town.”

[Hate 20,120]

Charlie Pride, The Doobie Brothers and George Strait can say "San Antone" and that's really about it. 

[Aqua Buddha 14,598]

San Antonio and said with a Spanish accent.

[TexasMan 10,937]

I was listening to Charlie Palillo the other day, and he mentioned this topic. Said it’s just as bad as when you call San Francisco “Frisco”. I never knew it was that offensive to San Antonians.

No Bob Wills?

[Hate 20,120]

Well, yes since Bob Will is still the King!

[Judge Roybeanbag 11,819]

Santonio.  All one word.

[HouTex 1,886]

Mexoplex. That's what my San Antonio fiends always called it.

[Wiler77 1,567]

How many of you people laying down the law about this call Guadalupe "Guadaloop"?  Really grinds my gears.

That got cleared up in the 90s in The Chronicle. Dates back to Spain where it came from Arabic Wadi-l-hub, Valley of Luvvvv. If you pronounce it like proper Spanish, it means you hate Arabs.

Did you learn that from your Aunti Lucia?

Oh, you Madrid.

[Patricio Swayze 17,058]

San Antonio.

Where my mom is from and my pops immigrated to.

I think I have said it like that less than 5 times in my life. It’s either Guadalupe (English or Spanish pronunciation)/ the drag. Depends on context and audience.

[deadshank 24,653]

Grandma born, raised, lived and died there. 

She always said San Antone-ya.  

Of course she’d get pico de gallo mixed up with Cinco de Mayo.  She was kooky. 

No pics, weirdos.

Unless you are older than 60 and singing a country song, it’s San Antonio.

Off topic here but are they still a thing? I moved to Portland 5 years ago and have since forgot about them. Don’t miss those retards either. Hum. Listen to the horn on internet always though.

It's not offensive, just an indicator that a person has never lived in SA

You missed them enough to comment about them, though? 25+ years and still broadcasting says they probably don't miss you.
