Nice post. Do we really want to talk about examples of fans being d-bags? I will tell you one of my old standbys. The Final Five, probably 4 years ago, walking towards Tom Reids bar, a gopher fan yells "The Sioux can suck my...." well, you get what i'm saying. As he yells this, he is grabbing an area of his anatomy. This happened as a game was getting out, with hundreds of fans walking on the narrow sidewalks of St Paul, children included. There are many of these stories, across all fanbases, I have met some really nice gopher fans in the past, and shared beers with them. I will miss that.
