Classless Minnesota Fans

Minnesota fans claim to be the class of the WCHA. Here is some video what I have been saying for a long time. Some friendly jabs are a norm for visitors, but being physical is ridiculous! Maybe these videos have been around for a while, but they are new to me. Here is some video of the UM/MTU game.

This is one of the responses that a fan wrote in response to that video. I have been told these clowns had their season tickets pulled.

I actually had a buddy of mine tell me that he won't come to a game up here because his buddies have been treated so bad here.

Personally I think it happens all over the place.

1 or 2 drunken slobs on video, does not represent the rest of the Gopher fans. Regrettable, stupid behavior. BUT: you're ASKING for trouble wearing your team's jersey in an opposing arena's STUDENT section (where you DID NOT have tickets to!), and should know better. I've been treated worse wearing a Gopher jersey in UW, UND and SCSU in the NON-student section.

what did they say about it

Most denounced it, some said it wasn't smart for them to be there in the first place. No one condoned it.

Nothing new here. Candy-Ass metrosexuals doing what they do. This town is full of them.

GF is full of hicks who complain about refs constantly...name calling can go either way. :)

Not all threads have to pertain to Sioux hockey, and it states clearly in the thread title that it has nothing to do with Sioux hockey.

As mentioned, every building has this type of fans. It seems like people go out of their way to try to convince everyone how bad Gopher fans treat opposing fans. I've seen some really bad Gopher fans, but some really classy Gopher fans. Some of the classy Gopher fans even post on this site. I've also seen some really bad Sioux fans, and some really classy Sioux fans. Every fan base has them, and in reality, it's highly likely that the bad fans will be students. I'm not saying all students are bad fans, but some students definitely like to start crap with opposing fans.

As for clips like this, I always hope that the parents of these kids get a chance to view their kids online, and see how they're behaving in public. I'll admit, I did some dumb things when I was their age, and I'm very glad that my mother did not see my behavior. Kids will be kids and they'll eventually grow up. Most of them become classy fans, but not all of them.

Just don't see any reason to point out Gopher fans when in reality, you could go to any building on any given night with a video camera, and get footage of similar behaviors of the home teams fans.

You gotta love the internet. :) It goes both ways as every fan-base has these types of individuals but i love to see goofer fans in the spotlight acting like complete idiots. :wink: i wish i had f(l)ag-guy on camera after the Friday game in Yucki when the Sioux won. It'd put this stuff to shame with the garbage coming out of his mouth.

I can vouch for that. Funny thing was that he was braggin' about being at Columbus a few years back! We asked how the goofers did in the tourney and that is when he had the Nazi comeback!

WHAT

Every school, I mean fan, in the WCHA complains about the refs. If they don't they're not watching the game. Oh yeah, Rex Banner, go troll on UW's forum. Don't be a TOOL on ours. Rex Banner? Really?:wink:? That's the name you came up with?:D

Whoa, someone must have scratched his favorite Jeff Foxworthy CD. What's with being a name nazi?
