ixcuincle Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 Maryland #5 out of all the fans in America, pro and college, is startling. I knew they were rough, but #5? Who's #1? Philly? New York? LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boss_Hogg Posted March 18, 2011 Author Share Posted March 18, 2011 Maryland #5 out of all the fans in America, pro and college, is startling. I knew they were rough, but #5? Who's #1? Philly? New York? LOL Eagles are #1 Phillies are #2 Dallas is #12: The swaggering diaspora of Dallas fans insufferably mouth off about the invincibility of "America's Team," as if they're rooting for our entire country and not a franchise that has won two playoff games in the past fifteen years. To set the record straight: The nickname came from a 1978 Cowboys highlight reel, not some edict from Uncle Sam. And they've sworn their allegiance to a front-running team that isn't even good enough to run up front anymore.Read More http://www.gq.com/sports/lists/201104/worst-sports-fans-in-america#ixzz1GxfD4hob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SonnyRules Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 MD at #5 is amazing. They have to stop beating Duke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RangerSkin Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 I am so glad that City of Brotherly Thugs was nationally recognized as #1 and #2 of the worst fans out there. They broke Cheif Z's leg for crying out loud! I watched them as they spit on their own players after a loss to the mighty Skins a few years ago. I am disgusted with that armpit of a city, and everyone who lives there. :eaglesuck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Evil Genius Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 Worst sports fans does not equal worst behaved. To me, that's a misnomer of epic proportions. This appears to be a list for worst behaved. Usually though, the best (or atleast most passionate) sports fans are often the worst behaved. Sigh.

Usually though, the best (or atleast most passionate) sports fans are often the worst behaved. Sigh. It appears to be a mix of both, worst overall and worst-behaved. Maryland/Oregon/Philly are examples of worst-behaved while Cowboys/Yankees/Red-Sox seem to be more of a worst-overall. I couldn't disagree with anyone on that list though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good call, if this were a list of the "worst" fans ranked by lack of passion, I would have to put Atlanta high on the list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RiggosMohawk Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 Public polling at its worst. I had no reservations about taking my son to multiple Phillies games last summer as a 2-year old. We weren't doused with any type of liquid, weren't overwhelmed with profanity nor assaulted, harassed or abused in any fashion. The article is 100% accurate about Eagles fans at the Linc though.

IONTOP Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 I dislike Duke as much as the next person, but I got a chuckle when reading "If you can't go to college, go to state"... That's just good natured ribbing... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spartacus87 Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 Good call, if this were a list of the "worst" fans ranked by lack of passion, I would have to put Atlanta high on the list. I can't comment on Atlanta as a sports town, but if you were talking about "worst" fans according to lack of passion, Miami as a city would have to be near the top. A really pathetic sports fanbase here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
