Walk-on
Hey Husker Fans! It's been a while since I was on the site, but I just got back from the Rose Bowl and want to give you a little insight on the type of conference you are entering.
Back in 2001, TCU came to Lincoln to face Crouch and the Big Red. I came away from that game with the utmost respect for Nebraska AND its fans. Great sportsmanship, knowledgeable, respectful, friendly, and helpful. Unfortunately you guys will have your hands full with GARBAGE FANS the Big Ten has to offer.
Here was my posting over at Killerfrogs.com:
"Well I'm back in the great state of Texas! And yes, I know the title of this thread is pretty harsh. But, my observations of Badger Nation as a WHOLE reflect these thoughts.
1. Their young fan base is COMPLETE GARBAGE! Before the game there was profanity, classlessness, unsportsmanlike conduct (penalty), and blatant BINGE DRINKING to the point of vomiting...pissing in public....lewdness.
2. Who starts chants DURING the National Anthem? WISCONSIN
3. Who had a bonehead fan run across the field AT THE ROSE BOWL? Wisconsin
4. Who's band took the FIELD and PLAYED during the Rose Bowl Trophy presentation? Wisconsin
5. Which team didn't bother shaking the hands of TCU players at the end of the game? Wisconsin
5. After the game...I was given the finger.....told I'm going to get my azz kicked....and basically disrespected by young Wisconsin fans who by this time could barely talk and were HORRIBLE losers.
6. Destruction of property. Numerous barricades..signs...etc. were tipped over, kicked, broken, stomped on.
NOTE: Older more mature Wisconsin fans were very pleasant to be around. Fairly classy and complimentary after the game.
UNFORTUNATELY........as the saying goes......."YOU ARE ONLY AS STRONG AS YOUR WEAKEST LINK."
The absolute worst fans (as a whole) that I've ever come across.
I had a colleague cover the Sugar Bowl and we hadn't discussed our experiences. He texted me at the conclusion of the Sugar Bowl that the Ohio State fans are some of the most classless fans he has come across. My response to him..."Wait til I tell you about Wisconsin."
Upon entering the Big Ten next year don't get sucked into what they have going on...........STAY CLASSY NEBRASKA.
