| Rude Fans First of all, let me say that the Wisconsin Badgers proved itself as a well-coached, tough-nosed football team. They run the ball well, and their defense hits hard.
However, I traveled to Tampa for the game and was sitting in the south endzone area right on the border of where the Tennessee area met the "Wisconsin" area, and I was really disappointed with the vulgarity, rudeness and lack of class shown by nearly all the fans in red in that area. It is one thing to be fired up and cheer hard, it is quite another to chant obsenities with a lot of young children sitting nearby. At first, I thought this large section was just a bunch of college students (and many of them appeared to be of college age), but at least half of them were looked to be in their late 20's or early 30's and some of them older. They were chanting "you F#@%ed up!" every time there was a penalty on us. There were many others such as one that included "you eat sh$%&@t!" in it.
I know that every school has its share of 'bad apples' in their fan base, but I have never seen UT fans behave in such a way that would make me ashamed to have young children around. I thought that Wisconsin would have a bunch of good-natured, all-American type of folks, but at least in the section where I was seated, it was not the case. I am sure there were many that weren't like this, but it was truly disgusting, and it wasn't just a couple of dumb kids. . . it was a group of probably around 40 or 50 fans. Truly disappointing. |

| Unfortunately, Wisconsin fans have a reputation that make "rowdy" look like a Victorian-era tea party.
About 10-15 years ago, their fans stormed the field in East Lansing after a 55-2 loss, then tore down the goalposts while chanting "We scored first!" |

| Not quite as bad as LSU I didn't know that Wisconsin fans had a reputation for anything like that. Oh well, like I said, I am sure that there were many fans in red at the game who wouldn't have appreciated something like that, and there were probably some Vols fans who acted stupidly, but I was really surprised by what I personally saw. In fact, as I was stopping in the restroom on the way out after the game a fight broke out between two drunk Wisconsin fans by the urinal. I don't know what it was over, but it came to blows and I had to help break it up because they were about to fall over and push a 5 year old kid into the toliet. The kid's dad (a Vol fan) gave me a hand in breaking them up. It was pretty pathetic. |

| It stands to reason that with all this WHINE, they eat a lot of cheese, and we all know too much cheese=constipation
That's probably why they're so upset, they're just taking it out on us |
