Sorry for drinking at a sporting event, I didn't realise that everyone at the Flames games are 100% sober. You want to talk about classless fans? Last November I brought my Uncle to a Rangers Flames game, he is the farthest thing from threatening when you look at him, and he doesn't say boo unless you speak to him.

He had things thrown at him, dumped on him, and when he tried to use the bathroom next to the 300's he was called on about 4 different times by some young punks.

So you can sit in your ivory tower and look down upon us lowly Rider fans, but the fact remains that every fan base has jack asses, every fan base has disgraceful fans. This is not something that is isolated in Saskatchewan.. and if you ever come to Mosaic you need to ask to not be situated in the University section. They have an actual section of the stands where they stick the rowdy young crowd, if you request for tickets on the other side I can guarentee you will have a great experience with a lot of fun loving Rider fans. Think of it as going to a Flames game and sitting next to the 300's or in the 300's.. what do you get up there? People knitting quilts and playing go fish?

Again, I apologize for being passionate about my team and my province. The way people talk about the Flames on this board I guess I should have remembered that it is a crime to be positive about your favourite sporting franchise.

I have no doubt you would see nothing wrong with the way some of the Rider fan base act at a Stamps game....
