It is funny.

I have children that attend both UGA and Auburn. We attend the UGA/Auburn
game every year. My wife made shirts for both of us that are 1/2 AU and 1/2
UGA sewn together. It never fails that drunk fans pick fights after the
game every year...whether we are in Athens or Auburn. My Auburn daughters
blamed it on "nasty UGA fans" the first year. But it was much worse the
next year at Auburn (and they won [Nat. Champ Year]) so they shut up after
witnessing it.

I have decided that most teams have their difficult fans. It is the
"culture" that either lets them behave badly or brings them back into line.
