This season before every home game we're gonna sacrifice a lucky visiting fan in front of Tebow's statue, then toss batteries and urine bombs on their dead carcass....because in Gainesville that's just how we do.

I like it. That will appease the football powers that be.

I have heard much worse things about Sanford Stadium. All it takes is one idiot to give someone the wrong perception of one's fanbase. My encounters with UF fans have been nothing but pleasant. UGA fans? Far from.

I think 90% of the "stories" from UF games are made up. JMO

its easy to find the visiting fans at Ben Hill. They're the one's without mullets. Makes it easier to find before stringing them up.

You're right...there are no mullets in progressive, cosmopolitan states like Alabama, Georgia, Tennessee, Mississippi, Arkansas, Louisiana, South Carolina and Kentucky...it's strictly a Florida phenomenon.

They exist. They just happen to be resting on the heads of those who have never set foot outside their own county. :)

True...I just find it laughable that UF fans are either labeled transplanted Yankees or mullet/jort-wearing rednecks by rival fans...there is no middle ground.

In my opinion, there really is no competition in this matter. My top five would be:

1. Members of
2. the Reptilian
3. Horde otherwise
4. known as
5. Florida fans (self-absorbed, narcissistic, egocentric, lacking even a shred of humility or grace and stricken with the
belief that the sun rises and sets exclusively
on Florida football)

I can't agree more!¡

Here's my top ten.

10) South Carolina. They are often very disgruntled. They don't have a good track record against most of their frequent opponents in the SEC. That's enough to piss anyone off.

9) Texas.
Don't mess with Texas, right? Seems that Texas can mess with everyone else. Texas fans will try to intimidate you, with the fear of the wrath of Bevo.

8) Southern California.
USC fans believe that their school should always get the Hollywood treatment. Literally. Why? Because they're USC, dudes.

7) LSU.
The Bayou Bengal fans are never satisfied with anything, and are rather rude to the point of having anyone with a 20-mile radius run for cover. Oh, and gumbo and crawfish are disgusting.

6) Auburn.
I'm afraid I have no money jokes. But I will say this about Aubie: if you have to share the state with Big Brother and their filthy elephants, you can learn the esoteric art of obnoxious fan-dom as well. They are nasty, mean, and their ego has been exacerbated by their national championship.

5) Tennessee.
Let's face it. We're horrible people. We're mean. We hate everyone, in conference and out. We're disgruntled, and we are always searching for instant gratification.

4) Georgia.
They are poor, misguided souls who are aggressive and hostile towards anyone not wearing red and black with a weird-looking "G" on it. In 2006, the Pride went to Athens and were pelted with objects and doused with beer and other beverages. This was a story I heard from a friend who used to be in the Pride.

3) Notre Dame.
Holier than thou. Enough said.

2) Florida.
This is the whole package. Aggressive. Verbally abusive. Mean-spirited. Ignorant. Loud. Obnoxious. Psychologically harsh. Who could possibly be #1??

1) Alabama.
This is a fanbase who thinks that they are better than everyone. Better even than those who also think that they are better than everyone. Each fanbase has certain people who think that way, but The Enemy invented that art. How can you not hate a fanbase who sabotages landmarks of other schools (I know it was one psycho, but he represented an entire fanbase). How can you not hate a fanbase who takes too much pride in their 7 national championships and their 6 so-called "championships?" That can bring out an egotism and obnoxiousness unlike any in college sports.

Some of what I wrote is rather tongue-in-cheek, but I tried my best at this late hour to provide an informative description. Honorable mention goes to Ohio State. :)

UGA fans are the worst ones I've ever dealt with.

When a 40 year old female in a tank top with no bra barks at you, you know you've seen the bottom of the barrel.

There was an Alabama fan that tried to fight a few members of Tennessee's band in the upper deck of Neyland in 06. That was one of the the dumbest things I've ever seen an opposing fan do.

Clemson fans are pathetic as well.

Before that same game, a friend and I were walking on the Cumberland Avenue strip when an elderly woman of about eighty got in our faces and yelled, "Roll Tide!" We just glared at her, and then she and her husband just walked away. Moral of the story: there are crazies of all ages.

I sat in the upper deck in the UGA section in 05 at the UT/UGA game. I left that game with an unimaginable distaste of UGA fans.

I've yet to have a bad encounter with a Bama fan.

The day I go on the road and not one rival fan says "Gators sucks", that's the day I'll know UF football is totally irrelevant.

Seems like Auburn has or had a rivarly with several current SEC teams. This should tell us something about how annoying they are.

I don't go to UF road games to be "liked" by our opponent's fans.

To paraphrase steve spurrier, "I wasn't a bad guy at duke. But, I come to florida and we're winning. People don't like me anymore. I'm always running up the score or something. They don't like you when you're winning"

As usual, you fail to grasp the fact that this really and truly is not ultimately about winning and losing per se. When Tennessee was on the short end of an 11-game losing streak to Alabama, I most certainly did not like ‘bama but I definitely respected them. I did so in part because Bear Bryant had a talent for complimenting his opponent (even if he had just beaten them 66-3) and belittling his own team’s strengths. There was no deliberate attempt to rub your vanquished opponent’s nose in his defeat. I found old-school Alabama fans to be of a similar mindset; they took victory in stride. They didn’t like Tennessee but they most certainly respected the history and tradition of that rivalry, not to mention the intensity with which that war was fought.

As great a coach as Spurrier was at Florida, he always struck me as a snide weasel, one who never wasted any opportunity to belittle a rival. Southern gentility seemed to have been lost on him, just as it seems to be utterly foreign to the behavioral repertoire of many, if not most, Florida fans. If Tennessee defeats rival X 45-7, I am not going to criticize, taunt or belittle their fans. I don’t think it is too much to ask that the favor be returned, even in the SEC which, as an anthropologist, I consider to be the last bastion of legalized intertribal warfare.

You state that “I don't go to UF road games to be ‘liked’ by our opponent's fans.” That’s fine and I doubt very seriously that you have anything to be worried about in that respect. If, however, you or your Reptilian brethren choose to conduct yourselves with the same self-absorbed, narcissistic, egocentric behavior which seems to epitomize Florida fans, a behavioral pattern that seems to be punctuated by the complete absence of even a shred of humility or grace, you will have demonstrated before God and all of humanity why your legions have earned the universal contempt of just about anybody who plays you with any degree of regularity. Any fan or analyst with even a modicum of objectivity has to respect what Florida has achieved on the football field. It is your attitude, your behavior, and your collective personality which we despise.
