I'm leaning that way. I never too much thought of them until here recently, and they are entitled and arrogant. Like the kid, in school, that used to act stupid, so he could be seen.

An LSU mass fan melt is hard to beat… but wait until you see a suicidal, homicidal, wrist stashing, hate mongering riot characterizes a Texas-sized melt. Nothing is more entertaining.

We all have ravenous fans. It all depends on what we all collectively think of as the "worst" qualities. LSU fans are just manic af. The highs are higher than high, the lows are truly abysmal depths, and psychotic. Y'all definitely got the loudest, per capita. Bar NONE.

I think the "worst" should be what the the average fan is really like. We will see what they're all about when they come over, for sure. Seems somewhat likely Texas fans are gonna be pretty high and mighty for no good reason.

I would limit it to just college fans for simplicity sake

#1 Ohio State (per capita, nobody can touch them)
#2 Southern Cal (at least after the 1960's)
#3 Texas - the core was there, but exploded after the 1970's
#4 Iowa - like Ohio State but fewer wins,I think they are related (DNA)
#5 Nouveau Rich Composite ACC - Clemson + Florida State + Miami

As a lifelong Texas fan and graduate, I can endorse this message.

Texas longhorn online melts have really been in a league of their own. Especially during the Mack Brown era losses.

There's a reason that the weekly Meltdown Time article always has to include a foul language disclaimer whenever Texas is included

I would bet the house that LSU melts are better.

WOW! It has been awhile. They finally let you out of the straight jacket after A&M sent your boys packing in the CWS? Not a peep for almost three months!

Thank you. I feel like I'm pretty well-known in the Longhorn fan-base? I've been on /r/cfb since the very early days, I moderated the /r/LonghornNation subreddit and I'm a member of their college fantasy league. If I'm not mistaken, Sergio is also known on reddit. Or maybe Surly. I forget which. FancyBoots is one of the most well-known Texas fans.

I don't know who this user TexasForever is, on the other hand. His name is pretty generic so he could be anybody. The fact that he is not familiar with other well-known Texas fans (and agrees with all of y'all's politics) gives me doubts about him.

Have they ever shot and killed anyone after a loss like Alabama fans have? That's sort of the gold standard.

A&M is just jealous that Texas steals their shitty fanbase thunder. They are only slightly less terrible.

Anything coming out of Texas is bad. We should have built the wall north of the Texas border.
