  1. In what world should this even be a concern? One of the more repugnant things I've read. Exactly...it is not what the person saying the things feels...it is what the person on the other end feels. Like...when a dude keeps texting a girl over and over and over...he thinks its sweet and he is showing he likes her...she is totally creeped out and thinks that its the second coming of Ted Bundy. Trash Talk: Your team sucks! Not Trash Talk: Hey, you got a pretty wife...I bet she would rather be with a man that has a 12 inch dong hanging between his legs and knows how to use...oh yeah...cute kid too...he can learn to be a real man by watch me...your team sucks.
  2. I wish...a pipeline means you get in with the CPS...which means you better get really dirty...CPS coaches and Chicago AAU coaches are HORRIBLE...Coach Smith might be the only really solid guy over at Simeon
  3. This guy is probably ending up at a KU, UK, UNC, Duke...type of school...That is what a lot of the chatter is with his skills
  4. Can you drink in the streets, like, state street and stuff? On gameday? Not in the street, no. On Regent Street, there are outdoor beer garden things hosted by the bars on gamedays, but that's about it. Okay, what is better...Regent or State?

  6. That's how you chose to do it. That is completely fine and noble of you. We do it different. You may find that distasteful or obnoxious but, frankly, we don't care. When you come to our house you play by our rules. That is going to include swearing and drinking and general rowdy behavior. We don't want you to feel unsafe but we also don't want you to feel overly welcome, if you don't like the vibe you don't have to come to Madison. Nobody is spitting on grandmas or throwing beer at kids. Or if they do, they will be arrested promptly, because that is behavior that everyone considers over the line. It is funny how all of these stories about UW fans and their despicable actions emerge when we beat a team with more historical cache than us. It is always OSU or Michigan or now Nebraska fans who feel UW is out of control. Surely it has nothing to do with the beat down taking place on the field that challenges their comfortable sense of place in CFB... I totally agree on the part in BOLD These are things that don't make me feel "overly welcome" 1. Buy me drinks 2. Share food 3. Be polite 4. Just ignore me...unless you are a blazing hot girl. Man...if you do those things, I will feel really weird and unwelcome...there now you have the blueprint on what will make me feel unwelcome.
  7. You should NOT be rewarded for losing to good teams. I hear this from high school coaches all the time "Well...we were 3-6 but we lost to six playoff teams" Ummm, okay? Guess what...if you are a "playoff" team you need to beat some of those teams.
  8. Man...good thing the first poll came out AFTER Nebraska's first bye...lord knows where they would be!
  9. I love that from now on I can just say "Hey...that is just how we do things here" to excuse my assholeness!
  10. Please, show me where any Badger fan on a board has said that they just wanted to drink beer and didn't care that the team lost. That's bogus. No
  11. I love when people try to tell other people how they should feel! "HEY! I know your grandmother just died...NOW STOP CRYING! YOU ARE NOT SAD" "Hey, I know that all the fans were yelling at you and telling your wife you are not a real man but its all for fun, so grow up!" Yet...then you get mad when I call you a virgin even though you admitted that you are...you can't have it both ways.
  12. Not my experience. I had items thrown at me (including beer). I had people tell my son he was a loser in his Husker gear with 2 different people putting a shoulder into him as he walked by...because 14 year olds need to have that happen when they're not saying anything at all to anyone. My wife and son had to hear opposing fans tell her she needed to be with a real man along with lots of sexual references. It was awesome that my son had to hear that too. It brought back memories of Colorado as I've said in the past. It was a great experience during the game but before and after, it was pure and unadulterated crap due to the unwelcoming nature of a "few" fans. The worst part is...if that happened in Nebraska, other Nebraska fans would jump all over those few who were ruining it for visitors...but instead, all that happened was jeers and cheers from people at Randall. As I've said, it wasn't a good experience...when someone threatens your family, it's not cool. It sounds like you did not put any effort into discerning what was actually a threat to your family and what was simply trash talk at a sporting event. If you take all of that at face value and can't laugh it off than you are exactly the type of person who should not come to Camp Randall. You are the enemy on game day. You should expect some ribbing. I get it that Nebraska fans had no idea what to expect coming into Camp Randall and the reality was jarring. Now you know that we do football different and as crazy as it may seem we take an equal amount of pride in being unruly and irreverent as you do in being nice and polite. Madison has always done things a little differently and we enjoy sticking it to the system/powers that be. In football that means that we are a decidedly R rated experience and we like it that way. If you don't that is fine, different strokes for different folks, but a little reality is healthy in every discussion. The reality here was that Nebraska fans believed the ESPN hype and thought the B1G sucked and that they were going to waltz in here and win the title every year, starting with a nationally televised coming out party against Wisconsin. All summer we heard about how UW was just a second rate Nebraska, a cheap imitation that was going to get introduced to the real thing when 20,000 NU fans invaded our house and showed us upstarts what was what. Except that that script got thrown out the window and the Badger rout was on. It became shockingly clear that, in fact, the B1G can play a little ball, Nebraska fans had no impact at all on our stadium as they were completely drowned out by a familiar yet foreign Sea of Red, and the team on the field got curb stomped by a team embracing the philosophy you abandoned right about the same time you lost superpower status. Combined with the culture shock it was a lot to take in for the Husker fans in attendance and it is not surprising that many of them had a less than pleasurable experience. In the days of internet anonymity it is easy for a relatively mundane interaction to take on mythic proportions and be widely disseminated as the absolute truth. That is what happened here. I'm sure there were a few incidents where Badger fans crossed the line, that is true of any stadium in such a charged atmosphere and Camp Randall is certainly not immune, but the tales of widespread assaults and abuse are simply not true. People are going to filter interactions through their own ethos and reach their own conclusions but that is not proof of intent. Many of those same fans that you thought were threatening you and your family would have bought you all a beer if you had returned their jabs in kind and with a smile. Finally, for the other poster, of course people don't act like that at work or in the grocery store. But you weren't at a grocery store or at work, you were at a college football night game between two top ten teams at a local that is known to embrace the drinking culture (IE Milwaukee Brewers). To expect the same standards of behavior to exist at those events is asinine. But then what do I know, I'm just a drunken virgin moron. Ha! I love that you are learning and accepting it! i asked where you will be Saturday for the game...where at? We can meet for a drink!
  13. Honestly, trying to park in Madison on gamedays is a mess. If you'd like to forego the parking pass route for lots, there are plenty of yards, driveways, etc. to park in. Whenever I have visitors come in from out of town, I usually direct them to lot 34 on the map you provided. It's a bit of a walk to Camp Randall, but it's something of a secret and real easy in-and-out. Thanks!
  14. Real quick...you do or do not start chanting "A-Hole" chants at dinners, movies, school plays and the grocery store. Literally two posts above this you wrote: "You sound like a moron...you don't need to act like an ass. It is that simple. You are probably a virgin." ​You win, clearly we Wisconsin fans have much to learn from sages such as yourself on what it means to be 'classy', and how not to act like an ass. Now I better get off my computer so I can go find a real girl! Exactly...good boy.
  15. Instead of Gordon or Clement beating us four times?! Talk about brilliant... They have no WR's or TE's that you have to be "worried" about, loading up the box is a good play.
  16. Bro's, check it out...I was just line grabbing a coffee...but the lady in front of me took a bit long to complete her order...so I just let her have it! I got as close as I could to her ear, from behind, and I yelled out "Try another coffee place LOSER...THIS PLACE IS NOT FOR YOU!" I think that will be the last time she feels comfortable ordering coffee...Oh...I also followed her out when she left and I walked really close...making sure she knew I was there. Did I do that right, Badger fan?
  17. Hey Badger Fans...where is a good place to park? http://www.stubhub.com/wisconsin-badgers-football-parking-passes-tickets/parking-passes-only-nebraska-at-wisconsin-11-15-2014-9069097/
  18. Bro...you don't get it! See...you might treat people "normal" and that is very noble of you BUT a badger fan has to make sure that everyone is uncomfortable at all times...at a theater, the mall, in line waiting to see Santa...If you don't like it...then DON'T SHOW UP
  19. I am loving the Badger fans!

  20. Real quick...you do or do not start chanting "A-Hole" chants at dinners, movies, school plays and the grocery store.
  21. That's exactly what I expect, make Stave beat us with their below average (outside of RB) skill players. You can zero or 3 deep...either way gives you an extra defender...you don't have your ends rush the QB but instead penetrated 2 yards deep and your edge is set. It is high school football 101 vs sweep teams.
