Better yet - attend a game a Louisville. Make sure to take pictures of the various tailgate activities. When you go back home, tell your friends.


I was in Atlanta and went to Lamar Jackson's first NCAA game (as a Frosh) against Auburn in the GA Dome.

Louisville lost, and a bunch of their fans were complaining about his performance and saying that he was not going to be good.

I was thinking to myself, "He just left HS a few months ago, and made some great plays against a talented, Will Muschamp coached defense",

tl;dr I totally believe you when you say that Louisville fans are dumb.

Jefferson County, Kentucky is truly a different place. To understand it, you have to go back to the seventies - and bussing. Not the idea of your kid getting on a school bus. The idea that your kid, for two years, will go to a completely different school district.

It shaped Louisville, and the surrounding counties, for decades. It still does. Louisville is a Mid Atlantic city, much more like somewhere in New Jersey than Kentucky.

Add to that, the state of sports media under Louisville's greatest sports era during Tom Jurich as AD. The message was EXTREMELY controlled, no dissent was allowed. That is the brand of Louisville sports that most fans were brought up on.
