<p>The most intense college rivalry in the world is Oxford/Cambridge, and not only because its hundreds of years older than Harvard/Yale. They say the only thing Cambridge ever invented was gravity. Funny story. I was talking to my friend who goes to Oxford and he was telling me how during WW2, Hitler didn't bomb Oxford because he wanted to make it his capital in England once he took over the island. I asked him if Cambridge was ever bombed during the war. He replied, "No I don't think so...but it should have been!" Maybe in poor taste, but I thought it was hilarious.</p>
