What a bunch of fucking rednecks.

You STILL can’t spell Citrus without UT…unless, of course, you’re a UT undergrad, who might need a few more letters spotted to them.

He should have thrown in Pat Summitt instead of Bruce Pearl; nobody fucks with Pat.

My personal favorite is the girls who talk trash… at the game I frequently remember being told “Go back to Florida!” and responding “Just as soon as we’re done here, don’t worry, I’m gettin the hell out of here. I don’t need to spend any more time in this hellhole than I abolsutely need to.”

Several outstanding examples of why incest is frowned upon !

And most of these replies are coming from supporters of the school where throwing urine in cups at opposing fans originiated.

You know that old saying about those who live in glass houses and throwing stones? You Gator supporters might need to think about that for just a minute.

I don’t know, if you’d have put a camera in front of me and my buddies during the week leading up to a big game, I don’t think “fair and balanced” would describe our comments. That was actually pretty tame.

Pot. Kettle. Black.

Next year on game day you may want to try wearing any article of UT clothing and just before game time walk through the gauntlet that is University Avenue in Gainesville. You’ll hear nothing but F.U.‘s and go F your sister. One on side you have tailgaters walking up to you and yelling in your face, and on the other side you get jerks screaming obscenities at you from patios of the bars. It’s not a very hospitable place. There are obnoxious fans everywhere, but I’m sorry, but Gainesville takes obnoxious to a new level.

Talk about rednecks, nothing says rednecks like jean shorts and mullets. I know FLA is trying to get past the mullet thing by every FLA male having slick backed gelled hair like billy donovan did (as was seen at last year’s UGA/FLA game), but they still have their fair share of toothless jean short wearing neckers in gainesville.

I second Paul C. FLA fans are the worst when coming to arrogance, and the absolute worst in being hospitable in their hometown. EDSBS is the exception..sometimes.

The old “urine throwing” story. I think you can find that one on snopes.com between pop rocks n coke and the hook handed prison escapee.

by MattUFBSMBA on Sep 18, 2006 2:18 PM EDT reply actions  

No, Matt. I don’t have to look on Snopes for that one. I saw it for myself in that zoo you call Ben Hill Griffith.

by Not so fast, my friend! on Sep 18, 2006 2:25 PM EDT reply actions  

who the hell would put urine in a CUP and throw it? that just gets piss all over the person who’s launching it. at least put it in a plastic bag or something. fucking sec… you guys are all crazy.

by tjf on Sep 18, 2006 2:25 PM EDT reply actions  

Lies. That story was apocryphal, and nothing has ever substantiated it. Ever. But since it makes you feel better, go right ahead and believe it.

by Orson Swindle on Sep 18, 2006 2:27 PM EDT reply actions  

I never had a problem in Gainesville. My only complaint is the campus bring spread out too damn far but the fans were fine.

I have never been to a game in Knoxville, although Carnell, Ronnie, Jason, Carlos, and Junior told me they had a helluva time there in 2004.

Was someone trying to argue that Florida fans are bigger rednecks than Tennessee fans? Really? Do I even have to argue this one, you’re from Tennessee!!! Oh and by the way 21-20.

by Leak+Tebow=championship on Sep 18, 2006 2:31 PM EDT reply actions  

You people do realise that nothing, absolutely nothing, done by American fans can possibly compare to what happens in foreign soccer stadiums, right? (Not to mention what happens outside – until gangs of UF and UT supporters are setting up pre-arranged knifefights before the game, gentility officially reigns in college football.)

by peachy on Sep 18, 2006 2:41 PM EDT reply actions  

Ah yes . . . “Your fans are so ill-behaved!” The mating call of the football fan who just got his ass whupped by an arch-rival. Take it from a UGA grad who has to hear this ad nauseam from Tech fans who think our occasional, uh, overzealousness should somehow negate the fact that we wax them every year: I know y’all think somebody somewhere cares about this, but . . . they don’t. It’s a line of “argument” composed of apocryphal stories and the same obnoxious shit that every school has engaged in since the beginning of time. Arguing about whose fans are worst-behaved is even more pointless than going up to Toby Keith and saying, “Now, Toby, let me tell you why I think you should drive a Chevy truck.”

Dumb, liqueured up UT fans? what else is new? Talk about MULLETS! Mullets were F’ing invented and taken to whole new LEVEL in Tennessee! Vol fans are perhaps the least intelligent and most belligerant fans in the SEC. Period.

by Shred on Sep 18, 2006 3:04 PM EDT reply actions  

JC, I’m in class and couldn’t turn the volume up, but what the hell is up with the Vol-lady thumbs? They were everywhere.

If we’re going to be throwing around apocryphal stories, how ’bout that 1990 game in Knoxville (and yes, we got severely waxed and beaten).

I believe the ‘classy’ chant was ‘Our students don’t get killed.’

Neither do they receive a quality education.

I didn’t know Krystal’s was filming more commercial in Knox Vegas.

Great taste!

by Cool Hand Mike on Sep 18, 2006 3:36 PM EDT reply actions  

Having grown up in Knoxville (Bearden HS, bitches) and graduating from Florida, I feel I’m uniquely qualified to opine that …

… both locales are less-than-hospitable to opposing fans.

And so there is no debate on where my loyalties reside, let me say that Phil Fulmer is 5-10 against Florida and offered up his 1st born as an offering to the Giant Spider God in return for 2 out of the 5.

by DHC on Sep 18, 2006 3:55 PM EDT reply actions  

I did once see a drunk Tennessee Vol fan peeing in a UF parking lot before a game, but he didn’t seem to be peeing AT anything.

Does that count?

how do you know that the toothbrush was invented in tennessee?

As a Gator from Tennessee, I’ve sat in a Vol section for 3 or maybe 4 UF-UT games at BHG@FF (best friend’s a Vol – his tickets), and done my share of trying to be polite…. even after I got a full jack and coke down my back…. from a kid who, it later turned out, went to my high school. (This was Spur-Dog’s last game – I was in the North Endzone visitor nosebleeds.)

We also offered our place for hot showers for a carload of UT students once, after one of those particularly wet games in the mid-90s. In return for our offer, they told us to fuck off and peeled out on our lawn.

Find me 90,000 simultaneously polite fans in a stadium; I’ll show you the biggest Yanni concert ever. All you can do is represent your own school with as much class as your parents taught you. If any.

P.S. Go Germantown Red Devils.

and I thought Ohio State fans were the only ones that made up stories about piss-cup throwing after a tough loss!

by Paternover on Sep 18, 2006 5:06 PM EDT reply actions  

Peachy, UF/UT knife fights still wouldn’t go to the soccer level- last couple months in Italy there have been organized knife fights amongst fans of the same team, battling for supremacy in the stadium. Now that is commitment.

by italiangator on Sep 18, 2006 5:19 PM EDT reply actions  

No, the piss cup throwing stories take place before and after the game, walking to and from the stadium.

by josh on Sep 18, 2006 5:29 PM EDT reply actions  

You don’t have knife fights in college football because most SEC fans would gang up to stab all the FLA fans, before turning on each other afterwards.

Both comments loaded with value, Josh.

I am so ashamed. Why when we do these things do we find the most redneckish people to do it? My God are all of us really like that? Leave me while I have a soul searching moment.

by VOLPIMP on Sep 18, 2006 6:56 PM EDT reply actions  

both vols and gators are littered with rednecks. most too never paid a single dollar in tuition. the main difference in the two come down to tennessee has old south toothless rednecks and florida is a bunch yankee carpet bagger gell faced rednecks, that wear jorts and think they just won the super bowl. calm down gators, you only beat a previos 5-6 tenn. team by one point. one point and tennessee has -11 rushing yards. ask any true vol grad, and i am one, and this loss doesnt hurt as much as it used to. were not worried, and if you think youll be in atlanta, right now it will only be the peach bowl. your season is a marathon not a sprint with 4 sec big dogs still left…

also, by the way, go germantown red devils

Phil Fulmer quote from the 2003 Peach Bowl reception dinner: “We don’t deserve to be here playing Clemson in a lesser bowl.” Hmm, oh my how the Tennessee program has fallen. 27-14. “We gon whip your butts. Feeyall Fulmer gon getcha Chreeyas Leek!” GO GATORS AND GO TIGERS!

My favorite description of UT was written by Tuckermax, his description of a football weekend in Knoxville is a classic…

by sb on Sep 19, 2006 11:19 AM EDT reply actions  

Everyone who comes to Knoxville that knows even a little bit of tradition, knows that the pre game knife fight goes down behind the long departed dentist office behind the only orange McD’s I’ve ever seen. And you people say you travel!
