So a Bama fan thinks their fanbase is classier than the rest, as a whole.
I'm shocked.
Fact is Alabama fans, as a whole, are no more, or less, classy than any other. Every fanbase is 80-90% decent and 10-20% a-holes.
I mean, I've been to every venue in the SEC sans Vanderbilt (most multiple times) and seen many of the traditional powers, and our graduate/money people always seen to behave well and interact with opponents. Especially teams like Ohio State. I can't even count how many "tell me more about your league" "tell me more about your stadium" etc etc conversations I heard on Bourbon Street, walking into the game, etc.
And I didn't use the word "classy". That word is ridiculous and overused. I used the word good-natured.

Again, this describes every fanbase in the SEC. We're on the same page here. Every fan is going to claim that they've seen their fellow fans treat opponents well, for the most part.
It's the 10-20% that try to make opposing fans miserable that give us all a bad name.
