The tiger fans to ducks fans ratio had to be 75/25. At least that. Ducks fans all seemed like pretty nice people. Hate for a few bad apples to ruin the whole bunch but man I witnessed some really embarrassing behavior by our fans. Roid heads picking on a little guy with his girlfriend. Unprovoked. Saw another group of tiger fans throw a drink on a family from Oregon simply waiting to cross the street. I spoke to the fam and told them we aren't all like that but you can't change a first impression. Oh well. Ive heard their fans are capable of the same but it's still really disappointing to see. Great win though.
There are lots of younger people that absolutely don't know how to act. Hell, you can go to other sites and see their post and know what they are gonna act like. I hate disrespectful pricks giving us a bad name. We have enough to worry about with public preception about Louisiana to bring more bad press upon ourselves. Still, there will be some bad apples who weren't raised with any respect for anyone. Damn shame.
You'll find that there are assclowns like that everywhere, especially when the combination of sports and alcohol is involved.
I love my Tigers and love the love (love/hate w/ Miles) Tiger fans have for their team, but yeah, we have alot of butthole fans. Wish it weren't the case, but I am being objective in this case and calling it as I see it. Thank you to all the Oregon fans who have shown alot of class and dignity in defeat. Can't say our fans would be the same had we lost. Best of luck to you on the rest of your season. Hope you win them all and we meet again in New Orleans.
According to GQ....we're the second worst college football fans in the nation....right behind West Virginia. The Worst Sports Fans in America: Lists: GQ So how many subscriptions do you think they sell in Appalachia and South Louisiana? After all, fashion for them is a coonskin cap....and we actually think Purple, Green and Gold actually go together. GQ can slam us with no repercussions....guess they never traveled to Tuscaloosa.
As you guys said, bad fans are everywhere, Ducks were #15 on the link. Agreeing again, I think, it's mostly the teens and tweens, that are the worst, by 35 years old, most people have simmered down. The fact that the crime rate in America began to subside, as the baby boomers matured, mirrors this.
