That’s just how Ohio State fans are referred to by people who have experienced them. On that note, one of the best things to ever grace the internet:

“...So a local television station in Cleveland decided to put together an “investigative report” on the dangers of allowing your children to go to the public library.
They found that man, and that man was an Ohio State fan. What happens next will change the way you see humanity. You’re going to watch this and think it’s some sort of sketch comedy troupe prank. It isn’t.”
.....You can find pathetic people who are fans of ANY TEAM.
All fans are not alike no matter which team you are talking about.
