Agreed, Sox fans have taken too much crap for Ligue and other things from Cubs fans and those who do that are idiots as well. It doesn't have stopping points only designated towards Cubs' fans stereotypes.

 

Nobody can deny that when that white trash father and son attacked the Royals 1st base coach, Cubs fans didnt use it as a stereotype for Sox fans.

 

The smart ones didn't.

 

But I know several and have seen several posts on here in the past that have used that stereotype before.

[Flames24Rulz]

Didn't anyone else think it was kinda hilarious/awesome? I know the Mets fans were loving it.

 

I found it humiliating, embarrassing, and disgusting but maybe that's just me.

[RynoRules]

Throwing a beer on someone from 15 ft above with the built-in assurance that the victim can't come -up and kick your ass is about as chicken [expletive] as it gets.

 

BTW, big props to Victorino for maintaining his concentration and apologies to him on behalf of normal Cubs fans. One thing we have traditionally been succesful at is being decent towards other teams' fans and players.

[Ding Dong Johnson]

screw Sam Fuld, that was "the catch"

I'm going to go ahead and assume you haven't been to Wrigley, ever.

 

I cannot count the number of times I've seen fights in the bleachers. Nor will I let my son go to a game with me when I sit in the bleachers and laugh at the heckles of the poor soul who plays for the other team, until he's at least 16.

[Monco]

When will they apologize to us for the high prices and bad baseball?

[Soul]

They're going to wind up laying down a plexiglass shield on the inside of that fencing because of douchebags like this. Or something similar that will further detract from the enjoyment of the game for everyone who would never dream of doing something like this.

 

I liked the look on the face of the guy in blue. He's like "what the frak is the matter with you?"

 

I immediately knew they had the wrong guy -- but the problem was, that guy was laughing at it so much and waving his arms, people who weren't in the immediate area thought for sure he must be the one.

 

I really hate when this happens. Then people use it to paint all Cub fans as bad. I'll bet Brennaman chuckled, and then applied it all Cub fans, within seconds of seeing it. We'll hear about it on a future broadcast :roll:. It just winds up taking away from the game, one way or another.

that guy's look epitomizes everything why i don't ever sit in the bleachers anymore:

 

-plain, white t-shirt? check

-cub hat, slightly cocked to the side? check

-thinly groomed beard? check

-oversized, white sunglasses hanging from t-shirt? check

-white sweat bands on the forearm? check

Exactly. The bleachers have become one big frat party every game. It's embarrassing.

 

By the way, I love the expression of the dude in the headband. He's like, "WTF. Did you seriously just do that with your $6.50 beer?"

So this guy threw his plastic cup THROUGH the basket? That's a neat trick.

9.5 out of 10 on the douchebag-o-meter.

What can get the extra .5? A barbed wire armband tattoo?

or something similar...

 

don't be like the guy in the white shirt, now.

[javy knows my name]

I think it's funny that the only guy in the picture who appears to have a problem with this is wearing the tired, ignorant fukudome [expletive] on his head.

 

We suck

corncob up there in the blue shirt wasn't having any of it, either.

I'm partial to the guy on the far left drinking and completely oblivious to what just happened.

i'm partial to the kid in the 'Canes shirt and his "be as calm as possible and I can't get in trouble" expression.

[Flames24Rulz]

I like the guy in the Miami shirt with the blank expression on his face like nothing out of the ordinary is going on.

 

I went to a Cubs-Reds game a few weeks ago and sat in the bleachers. It was real civil, people had their kids there and it was a pretty good time. Of course, it was also a day game. I've never been in the bleachers during a night game so I can't really comment on that. Idiots like that help bring the stereotype that everyone who sits in the bleachers is a frat boy that doesn't know what's going on in the game.

real good quality clip of it. i doubt this will last long before the YouTube gods smite it

For a second there it looks like toolbag is pointing at himself as the usher comes near him. Although he's probably saying "are they saying it was me! it wasn't!!"

 

also, if you watch him from the beginning of the clip, he is looking over his shoulder to see if an usher is nearby before launching the cup

lenny dykstra used to get a 32-ouncer dumped on him every time he came near the wall. if you don't want to get beer dumped on you, stop beating us.

It's the same clip from mlb.com so it would not matter nonetheless

That or if the white t-shirt was replaced with either a Ed Hardy or an Afflication shirt.
