Only had one Clemson fan ever be rude. Took my little cousin and my uncle to the ACCCG against them and one guy in the car that parked behind us saw my cousin get out of the truck and yelled f'n nerds. Then my uncle (who works in LE about 6'3 235) and I got out and faced towards him and he walked the other way.

All the other Clemson fans I've met have been great people.

Miami fans are garbage.

Interesting to read all the positive stuff about Clemson fans. I agree. At the ACCCG in Tampa, a Clemson family ended up in the upper deck on the GT side. I talked to 'em quite a bit and even got us all coffees (cold night). I'd-a done the same for 'Cane fans, but I won't say what extra stuff I'd consider adding to their coffee.

I only had one run-in with a Miami fan, and it was kind of odd... I was chatting with this older couple behind me while waiting in the cash only feeder line for Upper West concessions. All the sudden, this guy starts causing a commotion with, "What's the hold-ip!? Which line is everyone in!? What's going on!?" I turned and said something along the lines of, "Calm down, buddy, we're all in the same line." At this point, things took a weird turn... He starts yelling:

"My name isn't 'Buddy', my name is 'Jake'! I went to a 4-year school too! Miami is an accredited, private, highly ranked national university with strong academics!"

I stared, stunned, now really knowing how to respond to that. So I asked him why he was wearing a Kangol hat and blacked-out aviators at a night game if he was having that much trouble seeing what was going on in front of him. He then left the line.

The Miami fans I've seen remind me of "carnies"
at State Fairs and traveling amusement parks.

I'll take Bailey's and Jameson in mine.

So, what you're saying is that Miami has toilet paper degrees too.

Clemson fans always seem too dumb to be mean. I've never had a bad experience with them.

Miami fans are like cold sores. They only come around once or twice a year, no one likes to see them and they probably came from somewhere seedy that you don't want to think about.

The last Miami game I went to at Bobby Dodd, I sat in the Upper North. The wanna be gangstas there were overbearingly obnoxious. My wife instructed me that we were not to be in an area full of Miami fans if we were going to this game. I thought 122 (misspoke when I said 120 last week) would be mostly home team, but it ended up being about 50/50. HOWEVER, I was pleasantly surprised at the fans in our immediate vicinity. They were conversational and polite. They even agreed with Tech fans on some questionable calls and were good-hearted in their complaining about others. I know how Cane fans mostly are, so this was a welcome change for me.

As for the mutt fan walking through the crowd after the game jeering Tech fans......I hope someone left him in a gutter where he belonged. It almost happened in front of us, but cops got involved. What kind of grade A buttwipe would go to a rival team's home game and taunt their crowd afterwards?? (no offense intended since I'm guessing there is a good chance someone on this board has done this in Athens :-)

A rather large gentleman kept yelling, "dats how we do it at da u"...well at least during the first quarter.

This is a good analogy.

Someone probably has, but I'd just rather stay out of Athens.

Answer: U[sic]GA fans. At the Wake/GT ACCCG, there was a U[sic]GA fan there waving a flag. (I think I heard it was the dad of U[sic]GA QB Tereshinki, who also had a kid playing for Wake, but he was there to support a team not appearing in the game.)

At the GT/Fresno Humanitarian Bowl in Boise, there was a U[sic]GA fan leaning over the rail waving a flag in our guys' faces as they left the field. Sadly, I only saw one of our players with enough attitude to jump up and try to take it from him, but that was the story of that whole game.

So yeah, if you're talking grade A buttwipes, you're talking U[sic]GA.

I met a VT fan at the UVA game last year. I didn't mind him trolling them.

Had several groups of Miami fans around us in 227, but only one group was obnoxious. The obnoxious group was three guys sitting right in back of me. One guy was so drunk he couldn’t stand, so he wasn’t too much of a problem. The head Guido had decent football knowledge, but couldn’t utter a partial sentence without dropping the F bomb. Early in the fourth quart when JT5 made a nice 10 yard run he yelled out “BREAK HIS #%*^ING SPINE!” I turned around, looked him in the eye and asked “Really?” He thought about it for a moment and sad “Yeah, really!” So it wasn’t just something he said in the heat of battle, he meant it. About 5 minutes later he further confirmed his low life scum status as he was leaving. He said “I’m going to go home and beat the #%*^ING $#!* out of my fiancée, she’s a Tech fan.”
I know not all of the Miami fans are that way, but if you get one bad peanut you have to spit out the entire mouthful!

fans who travel to away games are probably more passionate/excitable/crazy than home game fans.
