Fans of two rivals.

Annually, I am reminded that one of my friends is a Kentucky fan AND a Louisville fan. He will wear whatever team is doing better at the time. He claims he grew up a Kentucky fan and went to Louisville. Is this common in Kentucky?
I know people that grew up a Florida fan, couldn't get in, went to FSU or Miami and still held allegiance to Florida. The way it should be, right?
Another person I know is a fan of the "state." So whoever is doing well at the time, he cheers for between Florida, Miami, and FSU. (He did not go to college)
I was wondering if you guys experience people like this? I imagine it happens often in Alabama and Mississippi. Do these people convert or do they cheer for both teams? I find it super strange to cheer for both rivals.

I've known girls that change their allegiances based on who they're dating.
Generally though they just tend to wear the colors of whatever home team they're tailgating at so maybe that's a poor example.

Bama fans:
Which is worse: a) a die hard Auburn fan or b) someone who roots for both Bama and Auburn?

My apologies, but as an LSU fan I must ask. What is this "rival" thing you speak of?

It happens often enough. Those that grow up a fan of Alabama, but attend Auburn for their veterinary, agriculture, or forestry programs. Or Auburn fans that attend Alabama for their business and law programs.

There is no such thing as a Kentucky and Louisville fan. God forbids it.

I think all your examples are of fans of the state and I have no problem with them. As an Arkansas fan, there are other teams I like, but I've always found it surprisingly difficult to root for anyone else. Some don't like "t-shirt" fans, but if you go to one school while rooting for another, isn't that the same thing?
Personally, the fans I can't stand are those who switch to whomever's currently having the most success among non-state schools. True bandwagon fans that really have no allegiance to any school and you see a lot of those nowadays it seems.

It's absurd land I don't get it. Watched my cousin play in the 2005 natty and the only Orange I could stand on my body was a bracelet. I was happy for him, but could not bring myself to be happy that texas won.
