I have to tell you, through the years, I had all kinds of things done to my car at football games, mostly the OU-Texas game, because of all my OU stickers and trinkets. Even had the antennae broken off several times and slashed tires. Had some bad bongos with a Nebraska fan once, too--

But the only time I ever had a potential "rumble" happen, in which I was in bodily danger, was in the ladies' room (and I *am* one) in Manhattan during an OU-KSU game. I was decked out, as always, head to toe in my Sooners red cowboy hat and red cowboy boots, shirt, jeans, temp tattoos, the whole nine yards. I also had a small boombox with a tape of Boomer Sooner in it.

I handed off the stereo to my friend when I went inside a stall - she turned it on to play the song - and then all hell broke loose. There were some very mean, very "butch" biker-type (not that there's anything wrong with that) "ladies" in their purple and gold who tried to fight us!

The only thing that saved us was that my friend is a lawyer and pulled out her card and told them to sue us and to contact her--then we actually RAN back to our seats and our hubbies! I was truly scared.

hehe, some folks around here take their football a little too seriously, I mean, were not Texans or anything!

Thankfully you emerged unscathed, .....and probably won the game anyhow!

I think we here in Aggieville might be headed for another decade long slump.
Most of the hub-ub lately concerning the team was when a star running back tried to run over a parking cop...apparently he was too important to be bothered with a ticket.
All was quickly brushed over before it even began though, for in Manhattan, football players are truly gods among us...hehe
Still, we're better than KU, our football players might run you over, but their basketball players will certainly punch you...

You went into the other team's stadium and started blaring out a tape of your fight song in the restroom? How incredibly obnoxious. While I don't condone violence, you can't be shocked that you'd get a negative reaction.
