Any non-Aggies who’ve been to a game at Colorado: Is it that bad?

I’ve heard from Aggies that went to either the ‘95 game or last weekend that Colorado fans are some of the rudest, low-class fans they’ve come across. Both cases could have some sour grapes, but I have no idea.
As a state, Colorado is one of those places I went to a lot as a kid for great camping, so it’s weird for me to see such negative reviews of the people.
That being said, college football fans are not much indicative of the general population.

I’ve been to that area of Colorado and can confirm it’s trash. Other than the view.
That said, they gave y’all a game and should be proud.

I mean, outside of Tuscaloosa, I'd say its pretty normal for opposing fans not wanting any part of A&M fans trying to make a move on them.

The geography and natural rec in and around Boulder are awesome. The homeless population is substantial and for many it’s a lifestyle choice, not a matter of genuine circumstance. A lot of folks there do have the “I’m cool because I live in Colorado/Boulder” vibe so that’s prob a lot of the rudeness encounters etc. It even goes to the point that living in downtown Boulder proper is a big deal vs neighboring towns that are 10-15 mins from downtown. I will say I like that the field is basically nestled right downtown with an open feel and there’s a strip of bars right across the street from the field. If you like beer, like hiking/camping/fishing, want to fit in a Red Rocks visit, and can tolerate the homeless crowd I’d say it’s worth a visit.

Never had any issues with CU fans. I suspect things may have changed over the years as the program no longer carries championship expectations like it did in the early ‘90’s.

My ex mother in law went to that school and is from that area. She is one of the rudest, trailer trashiest bitches I’ve ever met in my life. We went there for a family reunion and her family is the same way. They have money too. They just choose to live and act like trash.

It’s a bunch of California douche bags now.

The 90’s CU program & brutal crowds are a thing of the past.

Yep, there’s a reason they call it The University of California at Boulder. I’ve never heard of anyone having a problem with there fans though. There’s just not much of a football culture there.

There used to be, but like some other posters said it's a thing of the past now. Didn't make it up this year, but I went back in 2009 and most folks either
A) Didn't know there was a football game
B) were going to the game for fun, but had no idea who the opponant was
Or
C) one conversation with a decked out CU jersey wearing fan who was excited for the game but thought they were playing Texas, and was genuinely surprised to learn that it was A&M and that there were 4 schools from Texas in the Big 12. Nit just UT. Not a trash-talk "I've never heard of your school" kinda way. He literally didn't know what schools were in the Big 12, as a self-professed major CU football fan. Nice guy though.
Overall just not an engaged fan base at all anymore. Boulder is fun though.

They were fine. Just a little pissed off after losing a game they were excited about. One dude was agitated walking out after the game and was muttering to himself and gesturing like he was up for a fight.
After leaving the stadium, one girl said “Top 5 team my arse”. She was a nice looking Co-Ed so I just laughed.
Overall, the crowd seemed pretty average compared to most CFB venues.

Can't speak for the current environment. But within the old Big 8, they were considered the ruddest student section and were known for throwing things at the players and fans, in their drunkedness. No one cosidered them leaving a loss
That was before the B12, where TT fans have thrown black ink on OU players. And the last game there required the TT band to escort the OU band out of the stadium to protect them from the TT fans.
The rudest bowl game fans OU have encountered were LSU and 2nd place is not in the same universe. Literally had fear for safety of elderly people in their 80s, wives and daughters, by roaming large groups of LSU fan that were spitting on them and threating them with harm as they were walking to their cars. I am 73 and have never experienced anything like it, at probably 20 bowl games I have been to

Sounds like you're coming to the wrong conference

I have been to games in Alabama, Georgia, Florida, aTm and Tennessee. LSU is a bit different

Sounds like she has a good eye to me.

This definitely happened this weekend. Beer cans, water bottles and lemons were the favored projectiles into section 127.
