It's really sad that this is true.

It was reported on HoddyToddy.com so it must be true.

What I find absolutely hysterical is that there is NOTHING on this ANYWHERE else.

So you'll have to excuse me while I wait for somewhere other than the (SURELY unbiased) "hottytoddy.com" posts something about it.

Still, the amusing nature of people who post here, clinging to the liferaft that is the notion that their fanbase is "better" thanks to these kinds of stories. So much so, that without a shred of evidence they pounce immediately on a story as if true.

Already pointed out, this person had to go to the hospital - after driving all the way back to Mississippi? They're waiting for him to get better before filing with the police? There are so many holes in the story it's not even funny, but the blind leading the blind I suppose - so desperate to have their own biases confirmed, they ignore the oncoming train because they're too busy pointing at the tracks as proof that there was a guy once who built it.

Still, I also find it amusing that people take it at face value that a random person, with a family, pops in - punches some guy in the face - disappears with a wife and two kids in tow - guy who gets punched drives several hours with a broken jaw - decides to wait before filing anything with the police - and the article appears in exactly one place on the entire internet.

More likely? Guy was happy they won, got drunk, fell down and smashed his jaw against something, and now realizes if he comes clean he's unlikely get any sympathy and daddy isn't pay for his hospital bill.

I'll believe that a person is dishonest and lies long before I believe the HIGHLY unlikely set of circumstances required to get him where he is.

Oh, and for the Google impaired:

Pizza Hut to Salon 501 (the real name, there is no "Salon 5")

Oddly enough, between the two?

Bryant-Denny. They are in opposite directions from the stadium.

Guy is CLEARLY lying.

Bet the kid who was knocked out on university ave. ,for NO reason, didn't get any news coverage in 2005 either .... Hell, the sorry arse Tuscaloosa police that were there DGAF.

Local newspapers/broadcasters are not a good source of fact anyway, geniuses.

If you make these moves don't be surprised when this happens. Cause I can assure there are a segment of fans from every school sans vandy that are capable of this. I was leaving Oxford last time we beat yall there and saw an ole miss fan assault an LSU fan. And no doubt the same happens in BR. So if you're "not a pussy" then don't whine when someone blasts your teeth out for cheering that bull shite. Accept the consequences of what we all know can happen.



I agree 1000%%% with you.

If you want to act all big and tough and get up in peoples faces, then don't be afraid when someone comes back at you. If you don't want any issues than keep your mouth shut, its that simple.

Amen. Cheer during the game; not obnoxiously. If u win a big game you should probably get in ur car and put some distance between you and the fans.

If you run around cheering and talking shite don't be surprised if you get into a fight. Your asking for trouble.

Link is bad, here's how you actually do it:

If only people understood how to do this.

I was yelling hotty toddy every five mins and had some bama fans talk shite but I kept my guard up and my head was on a swivel. Any away fan should never let their guard down

Looked like a fair fight. No sucker punch involved.

My only point is that shite happens on every corner of the world regardless of what game or school you go to.

Except we're talking about a question of degree. What are isolated incidents with other fan bases are yearly occurrences with the Alabama fan base.
