If LSU, Florida, Texas, & Colorado football fans aren't on the list, it's invalid.

Way too low. Philly sports fans are as trashy as it gets and Eagles games are ground zero for it.

It’s Mike Freeman, so I’m not surprised that the list is awful.

9. Notre Dame football fans


Who cares? They're like this "silent majority" that only pops its head out of the gopher hole when they are in some big game and then after they lose, they crawl back into their hole.

Notre Dame fans are the sports equivalent of Nixon and Bush. Ye Old Subway alumni...

People in the South think Alabama invented the "I never went to Alabama or college for that matter, but it's my alma-mater damnit!"

It was Notre Dame who invented rooting for a school that you had nothing to do with...just for Catholic pride...which being a religion is more impressive than Southern pride I suppose (because then you're just latching on to ANY school with the most success in the South and have no real allegiance beyond SEC!) which is no real fandom at all...just a happenstance of area code...which we all hate...that "I live here, so we're the best!" type of weak insecure fandom.

For the historically impaired...
quote:


The Subway Alumni are a group of Notre Dame Fighting Irish fans who are known for their strict allegiance to the school although never attending or graduating from the school. The group’s nickname originated when New York City area residents began traveling to early Notre Dame football games around the New York area by train.


So Bama fans should be on this list over Notre Dame. Just glory hunters who have ZERO connection with the school beyond listening to Lynyrd Skynyrd, drinking Jack and Coke and frequent appearances on COPS.

He really put Heat fans at number 1 because they left a finals game with 28 seconds left?

There are multiple fanbases on and off his list that could replace the Miami Heat fanbases. I honestly didn't even know they had that much of a following other than celebs who want to be seen in Miami during basketball season.

I would think the worst fanbases don’t show up. I’ll never hate on the ones that do

That being said, the Yankees need to be on this list, and every other franchise that attracts shite tier bandwagon fans

That list should of started and ended with all Philly fans. Especially Eagles fans. They booed a motionles/temporarily paralyzed Micheal Irvin as he lay on the turf at the Vet. They are scum of the Earth

Any list like this that claims the Pats didn't shite pre-Brady is invalid as it's written by someone that doesn't know anything about sports history. Pats have been in a super bowl in the 80s and 90s, so piss off Yahoo.

NY Yankee fans are the absolute worst in all of sports.

The authors exclusion of Yankee fans and inclusion of 3 Boston teams in his top 5 makes the list laughable.

Fake news, partisan hack.

While I agree, he's not necessarily wrong about Boston sports fans. They do suck.

Cardinals fans are some of the most respectful fans in all of sports. The media created this narrative about them being the best baseball fans, then took the narrative they were pushing and got annoyed at Cardinals fans for it. Just look at the reason given for why Cards fans are on the list.
