Bears fans staying classy...

by TEXVIKE on Nov 18, 2009 2:44 PM CST Comment 8 comments

Looks like a few of our Windy City friends got a bit out of hand after they beat the Steelers early in the season.

Report from PFT on an altercation between Bear and Steeler fans at a local Chicago bar, apparently the two sides were jawing with each other after the game. Bears fans decided to make peace by offering a free drink (that had a whole hell of a lot more than booze in it)

Steeler fan poisoned?

I'd be shocked if the poisoning was intentional.

If you think a bartender would knowingly serve up a poison drink, I’d hate to go to your bars.

When you go to somebody's house, you don't crap on their floor. Being a fan of one team does NOT give you license to be a dick to fans of another.

Corollary: When people are visiting your house and behaving themselves, them being a fan of a different team is NOT a reason for you to piss in their beer.

I read the story on Deadspin yesterday

and was under the impression that they were saying the Bears fan patron of the bar who agreed to buy the fella a drink was the one who “spiked” the drink, not the bartender.

Either way, crazy, huh?

I live in Illinois

and have a lot of Bears fan friends, so it’s hard for me to say that they are the “worst fans”, but from my understanding The Linc and Soldier Field are the two absolutely worst places to see a game as an opposing fan. Fans are beyond pathetic there. I’ve never once “got into it” with an opposing fan at the Dome. I just don’t get the point…

Tampa and Philly

are as bad as they come. I’ve seen Philly fans and talked to local Steeler club members who hate Philly. They say their people don’t even represent the state and are more NY minded.
As one guy put it “I don’t even consider the city part of PA”
Tampa fans are rude and nasty. I have many run ins with their nut cases. One who complained I was in not disabled cause I when I stood up to stretch my back. I lifted my shirt and displayed my “hamberger” back wounds. That shut the A hole up.
Not a pretty site.
I always thought it would be bad in Pitt bu tas we spoke this guy describes Pitt fans as if I were decribing vikes fans at games. Not once have I seen aVikign fan lambast a visiting fan. I have jokes and had friendly converstions bu tnothing like I hear about and have seen at other venues.

Wow

Read some of the idiotic comments after the article?

I’ve run into my fair share of jerks from both fanbase’s, as well as some amongst ourselves here (later in this post) and other teams. But most fans would not go that far. But doing something like that is totally inexcusable. I hope they find the jerks who did it and string em up. I will say, I’ve had a friend, who is a VP of the Steelers fan club here in Alb stick up for me, and last year, I had to stick up for a guy I know who is a Packers fan from one of our own. The situation there was bad tho. Guy was drunk, trying to start fights with anyone in a Packers jersey, after I and the Bouncer told him to back off, he then grabbed the chest of the waitress I had, who I happen to know also. Needless to say, I floored his ass and threw him up against the bar before the Bouncer got ahold of him. I don’t care who it is or who your team is, even ours, a jerk is a jerk and I hate them all.
