Opposing fans here feed off of stuff like that because they are obviously very invested in football and have had to watch Bama win 3 NCs in the last 5 years. Deep down they wish they could have experienced it. They haven't so they use the actions of fans to mollify that envy.

Meanwhile everybody continues to laugh their butts off.

I just want to say that I'm generally in the boat of we all have degenerate fans that do stupid redneck shite, which is generally true. The problem with Alabama fans, or the 85% of Alabama fans, is that you put the best college football program of all-time in that region of the country. If LSU, Ole Miss, Auburn, Georgia, etc had the program Alabama has had, they'd have the amount of ridiculous redneck sidewalk fans Alabama does. Kentucky basketball is close, but college basketball just isn't as big as college football, so you're not going to have a ton of Kentucky basketball fans outside the state of Kentucky. It's basically just the nature of the beast. If you put something as successful as Alabama football has been in a region where that's all people have to look forward to in their lives, well this is what results.

Trying to act like Alabama fans aren't worse is just being dismissive of what's in front of you, but at the same time, the reason why there are so many is because of something that many other fans wished they had. It's a double-edged sword basically. Alabama fans in here should just accept the fact that they have the most redneck, sidewalk, lunatic fans and laugh along with everyone else because you really can't make up stuff like this. It's just beautiful
