A bottle with the cap off is actually a better projectile to throw at someone, or at least just as good, so that isn't the reason.



I've been told that this is the main reason. It makes a heavier and more accurate projectile with the cap on and full of liquid.

I've seen this letter make the rounds the last couple of years written by different fans of different schools about other schools. THIS letter is a fake.

However, I have heard some Auburn fans were not treated well, and I am sure you can find some Georgia fans that were not treated well when they went to Auburn. There are good folks and jerks in every fan base. You will get some good stories and some horror stories frm every game played.

If you throw a full bottle hard, not that much will spill out before impact. Then it will spill all over the person you threw it at.

Maybe I'm wrong about that though

No it's not. Google the letter and it does not appear before 17 hours ago.

I just asked the guy who served me and he said that's what they were told. Both make sense though.

You UGA fans were pretty respectful when we spanked you in 08'. But I always wondered if it was shock more than anything that kept you idle. I did have to bail out one bama kid that got knocked to the ground and was about to get kicked in the ribs by some drunk UGA fans. Once I got him to his feet the offenders left the scene.

sounds like the aubbie fan has a large vagina. So of course he would let all the sand out on reddit.

Also, things will happen to AU fans that won't happen to other visiting fan bases because A) there are a lot of UGA fans that wouldn't piss on an Auburn fan even if he was on fire ( I may be one of these) B) something to do with firehoses. What can I say? Although I have restrained myself so far, there is just something about orange and blue that makes me want to punch the wearer in the face. it may have something to do with the fact that more than a few of the people I disliked the most growing up ended up matriculating there. Just left a bad connotation in the brain from the get go.


Sounds about right from my experiences.

UGA has some sort of issues with AU that go beyond a rivalry. I think it is accurate to say, as you did, that UGA fans can and do behave in a manner that is pretty bad towards AU no one else.

Whatever, carry on leghumpers.

I don't know about this specifically, but I did hear our band got some rough treatment on Saturday. I was at the bars so I can't really confirm.

Funny that the only fans that come up with this crap after we beat the hell out of them are Auburn, Georgia Tech, and South Carolina. They are used to playing the victim due to their little brother status. I have been going to UGA games for over 20 years and have never seen anyone getting spat upon or assaulted. Of course you're going to get heckled. As the old saying goes, if you meet an a-hole in the morning, you've met an a-hole. If you meet assholes all day, then you're the a-hole.

I went to some bars before the game. There were plenty of Auburn fans out. Most were ignored. Some were lightly heckled. There was a girl at the bar by me wearing an Auburn jersey and I jokingly told her that she would have to leave if she didn't take off her jersey or be refused service. We both laughed and that was the end of it. The vag that wrote this letter seems like the kind of guy that would spin that after that clown stomping we gave them into being assaulted and told to leave or I would kick his arse.

I find it hilarious the victim complex some of these pussies have. The fact that they would outright lie is incredible. What a bitch.

UGA fans in athens basically assault opposing fans. Something has to be done. I have a VIDEO of what happens when a bunch of UGA fans get together before a game, so there's no denying this shite as being fake

NSFW

Explain yourselves, UGA.

And most likely, you aren't tailgating in an area where it happens. Stupid shite goes down at every school on gameday, not saying what the letter writer said is 100% accurate, but don't act like there aren't shitty fans that do stuff like this.

And we heard the same things from Georgia fans these past 3 times when we beat them in Columbia.

20 years. Going to every game. Going to others' tailgates all over campus. Going to bars. I have never seen a fight, or anything being thrown. Not saying there aren't bad fans, but some of these pussies act like UGA fans are a marauding horde of Huns. It's pathetic to act like such a bitch. Do yourselves a favor and call out these pussies. It makes your fanbase look like whiny little losers.

I had an AU fan smart off at me Sat. night after the game. I popped him with my stun gun, tied him up, took his keys, and put him in the trunk of his car. I then drove his car to an abandoned grocery store parking lot and set it on fire.

I hope he learned his lesson.

There is nothing worse than a crybaby making stuff up after losing. I have previously posted that I don't like Columbia at all, but it has nothing to do with the fans. Of course you're going to experience heckling, but don't blow it out of proportion.
