People doing it for a lark and entertainment “Look at me, I’m dumping on someone like Tebow who’s very open about his faith”.
Reminds me of when I went to a Montreal Canadiens-New York Rangers game at the Forum in about 1982 and three or four men were seated in a row near us. They yelled every time Guy Lafleur was on the ice things like “Lafleur is an ass%ole, Lafleur is a f$g, go home and learn English Lafleur”.
I haven’t been to an ice rink fight in many years. I do recall that back then, folks were divided between the genuine azzholes and true fans who stood in reverence for both the US national anthem and the Canadian anthem and cheered for great plays by both sides. I must be living in another world, a parallel universe or something.

I was at a Notre Dame-PSU game at State College one year...and the anti-Catholic vitriol I had to hear from the surrounding drunkards was beyond belief...the way it goes, I guess...
