You're probably just as fanatical as the Updykes, tbh.

Why didn't you add the Bama fan that shot up the puppy kennel to the list?

And why were they tussling? Did Barett storm into the frat house and hunt them down like dogs?

Barrett committed a terrible atrocity. He yelled "Roll Tide" and then here came the drunk Aubs. To their regret.

I searched yesterday to see if that story was true. didn't see anything. There are too many incidents now and the most recent one pops up on google for atleast 3 pages.

So, if no Bama fans attended games, spent money on tickets and merchandise,and the stadium was empty every Saturday would Bama have been just as successful as they have in the last 6 years?


Can you post a picture of your ring? I'm jealous.

04. Alabama construction worker sabotages stadium, potentially harming thousands


Really stretching with this one. He hanged a flag on the stadium and posted some silly Facebook posts. Had he actually sabotaged the stadium you'd have more than SB Nation to go on.

-----------------------

quote:

05. Alabama fan sucker punches Zach Mettenburger at a bar after yelling "roll tide".


From your link, the only statement Mett has made about this incident so far is that it is a "bogus rumor." I'm going to need a little more to go on than just some bar owner who wants to make the papers. Also, assuming this did happen, even if someone said "Roll Tide" before punching him that doesn't necessarily mean they were Bama fans. They could have just been looking for a fight and thought that would rile him up. It's become something of a meme for people who want to act like they're a redneck.

-----------------------

quote:

08. Alabama fan kills two LSU fans after disagreement of football game


From the link in number 8, it looks to me like this was going to end in violence either way and the Bama fan just got the upper hand. The LSU fans drove to this guy's house and the husband pulled a pistol...then the Bama fan got his shotgun and pulled the trigger. I don't think this one qualifies. Don't drive to someone's house and pull a pistol if you don't want to get shot...

quote:

Smith retrieved a pistol from his vehicle, and threatened Williams, who armed himself with a shotgun and fired two blasts, striking and killing Dennis Smith, officers said.


-----------------------

quote:

10. Bama fan beats up wife after Iron Bowl Party


Not that it matters, but this heading is wrong. According to the article, he beat up "a husband and wife" not his own wife.

-----------------------

11 & 15 are the same incident:

quote:

11. Bama fans threatens to kill kicker after loss


quote:

15. Alabama player Cade Foster sent death threats by Alabama fans


-----------------------

quote:

12. Alabama fan gets into a twitter fight with Alabama player for rooting on his home state players


I agree that this is really silly but it seems incredibly out of place compared to the rest of what you're attempting to imply. I don't think it's embarassing for people to think Louisiana is trashy. I'm sure he's not the only one and I'm sure it's not just Bama fans who feel this way. This certainly isn't on the level of killing someone.

-----------------------

quote:

13. Father of Daughter Alleigh Bama and son Crimson Tide, offer support to the parents of Krimson Tyde


Again, this just seems really out of place. People name their kids dumb things all the time. I am 100% certain all of our fanbases have fans with really ridiculous names. This doesn't seem to be on the same level of a Harvey Updyke or killing someone because they don't care enough about a loss.

-----------------------

quote:

16. Alabama fan arrested for raping a mini horse


The article doesn't mention him being an Alabama fan. I clicked through to all of the articles linked in the source article as well. None of those mention this either. If there is something else tying him to the school you should probably link that.

-----------------------

You have links all the way back to 2003 and all you can find are 18 incidents? With a few of those being suspect claims, duplicates, or simply not embarassing at all?

I'm feeling pretty good about our fanbase right now if this is the case.

What do you think happened? He and his trashy friends rolled across the lawn of a fraternity house and started talking shite. shite talking commenced. Talking led to fighting. One of the Bama fans sucker punched a kid who wasn't fighting, and then took off down the road.

A few of the fraternity kids ran after them, they started fighting again, and then Barrett started knifing people who were fighting his buddies.

Fraternity fights and rival fan fights happen at every game. The difference is that one of yours decided to put a knife between someone's ribs and collapse the kid's lung, and then tried to bribe a MR kid to take the fall.
