Wow, I'm no fan of Bama, but that was a ridiculous article. Scathing and angry. This is on Fox sports? Good lord.

Nonetheless, a well deserved ranking and worthy of posting on the sec rant for consumption.

This group of Alabama fans resents those who actually attended the school and calls them, "elitists." (To be an "elitist" in Alabama you have to graduate high school, avoid having kids until you're 22, and shop at Target instead of Wal-Mart. Seriously, that's an Alabama elitist.)

I thought it would be funny but I really didn't find it funny. The author should have just said, "Bama's fans are the dumbest because I hate rednecks."

I saw so many of these shirts in Tuscaloosa last year. I also saw a shirt that had the state of Alabama on the back with the number of championships that they're claiming now, and it said in big bold letters "what's you're states traditions".

Not only do they claim fake titles, they can't use your correctly when printing shirts.

At the top of the list is the 10-15% of the fan base that could actually be admitted to Alabama or attended the school.

This group hates most of the rest of the Alabama fan base with a passionate fury.


This is very true.

Ohio State's - The stereotypical fan with the goatee. The only piece of furniture in his apartment is a weight bench, and he makes stupid grammatical errors on the message boards.

Kentucky - His kids look eerily similar to Tony Delk

Alabama - "He's all uppity."

This article is a beautiful piece of journalism. I will print and frame it.

I lived in AL in the last 60's early 70's during the Bear days. Bama fans were miserable.

I will say that the vocal/embarrassing/pathetic 10% of every fanbase gets magnified when their team is winning, but there are a few exceptions going both ways.


West Virginia fans are pathetic and embarrassing when they win or lose.

Tennessee fans are obnoxious when they win.


But I will say that South Carolina and LSU fans are rowdy win or lose and that is why i became a tiger fan.

We will tigerbait anyone during a 3-9 season or a 9-3 season.

This is what poisoning trees, rubbing your genitals on someone, sabotaging construction on an opponent's stadium, killing your own team's fan due to lack of concern about a loss, etc., etc., etc. get you.

Every team has their problem children but Alabama is the epitome of classless trash.

The Children of the Corn should also be on this list. Anyone who has been in Lin-colon can attest to this.

Correlation between fake NCs and dumbness ranking:

Alabama: 15 Claimed (10 BCS/AP/Coaches), 5 fake (#1)

Notre Dame: 11 Claimed (8 BCS/AP/Coaches), 3 fake (#5)

Arkansas: 1 Claimed (0 BCS/AP/Coaches), 1 fake (#4)

I live in Alabama. Every word of it is true. Every school does have it's bad fans, but nothing like the quantity and severity of Bammer idiots.
