NFL stadiums are filled with uneducated trash.

This is so true

Lots of nfl attendance is trash that has no tie to a school and they can’t wait to show up and get drunk on Sunday

used to go to the Raiders v Chargers every year in San Diego. Eventually, it got to the point that I no longer felt safe bringing my family so we stopped going. I've seen some brutal beat downs.

Back when I went to Saints games I went to a chargers game and the 49ers game in the old stadium in the hood. Never again. I couldn’t imagine somewhere like Philly.

I think most here are right. In general, most people who attend college football games actually went to the school. so there's a higher education level. SEC schools are one exception, where it's a lot more "state pride" than school pride. Go to an Alabama game, for example, and I would imagine 60% of those fans never went to Alabama.

This is also why you see more fights at SEC games than college football games in the Northeast or West Coast. In the Northeast or out on the West Coast, it's essentially weird or bizarre to attend a college football game for a college you didn't actually attend.

Another reason I think is the intermingling of home and away fans. For college football games, while visiting fans can sit anywhere, the vast majority will be in the away section and buy through their school. Less chance overall of an incident.

I actually think it would be a good idea to implement in the NFL. Give the away team one or two entire sections in the upper deck. The away team sells those tickets and keeps any profit. 2 weeks prior, the away team returns any unsold tickets to the home team, who can then sell them as single game tickets. They can even put on there that these tickets are in the "away section". You allocate one entrance for the away fans close to their section, similar to how college teams have specific gates for students. You essentially segregate the away and home fans and eliminate one flash point where fights can occur.

Dude we’re not soccer

The last games I have attended, the fans are absolute gutter trash. The type of people who max out their credit cards to attend their team's game and then get black out drunk and won't remember anything. I am good with never going to another NFL game again.

There really is something about the NFL fans and stadium attendance that is trashy for some reason. Always seems like it's a bunch of douche middle age men in jerseys looking for fights. Or trashy women who start trying to kill one another.

Not sure what it is about the NFL fan that draws this.

Nfl games are all the same as far as people just getting drunk and fighting. And it’s not even home fans vs visiting fans. These people are fighting each other.

I will say that on the west coast, it isn’t just the nfl. San Diego, LA, San Francisco etc…all the Hispanic fans make attending any sport dangerous. They’ll put you in the hospital for having the wrong jersey on. And while not on the west coast, Houston is getting like that too. NRG is just one giant Hispanic melting pot. Zero desire to ever go to a game there ever again.
