I'm a little confused. Were the death threats to Dee Dee Bonner and Katherine from reasonable auburn fans doing a public service? Or were they from crazy Bama fans who are mad at Harvey for helping raise money for a cancer charity?

I'm struggling to get this to fit the auburn narrative. Can someone help me out here?

The death threats have to be credible. Nobody would take you seriously.

If you do actually show up, make sure you tie your hood down tight so it doesn't slip off. You wouldn't anyone to recognize you getting your arse whipped.

Hold on to the bitter end, aubies. No possible way that there could be two or three auburn fans out of thousands who would make a death threat.

Is it so hard to admit that there are nutjobs in every fanbase? Even if we grant that Alabama has far more than our share, will it kill you to believe that maybe just a COUPLE of auburn fans might not be of the highest character? Damn, you people really are a cult.

No I will admit we have some crazies. I just don't believe there were "death threats". I believe they were embarrassed because both side told them that it was a terrible fricking idea.

One of them touched my wee wee and yelled "War Eagle!" when I was little, and I never got over it.

Not saying it was or wasnt Auburn fans, but where in your link does it say that it was Auburn fans? or as usual, Auburn was your first thought of the morning?

I remember when he made it to Bourbon for the National Championship and all the Bama fans were clapping and calling him a "Hero" and taking pictures with him.

Could the REC assemble a team of fans to protect him?

Good enough.

The old death threat claim does get overused, doesn't it? If I pranked Dee Dee Bonner I wouldn't threaten her, I would ask to be breast fed.

I think this is the bottom line. What a stupid idea.

Which nut jobs commit crazy acts in the name of fandom?

Why would anybody want to associate themselves with Harvey Updyke? This just shows that he is still an iconic figure with the mainstream Bama Fans (Dee Dee Bonner).

its called projection.

bammers are so used to their own fanbase reacting in a hysterical manner they assume all other fanbases will do the same.

After a loss to Auburn, bammer fans:
1. threw bricks through the head coaches window
2. killed a family member.
3. posted death threats against a player who missed field goals.

same stuff different day in the land of bammer.
