Love the Duke fans narrative, especially the first part!:

Duke fans who complain that everyone hates them because they're too good are like cheerleaders who complain that everyone hates them because they're too pretty. Sorry, princess! Soaked with arrogance (and **** Vitale tongue baths), the Dukies have hit NC State with the chant "If you can't go to college, go to State!" while UNC has gotten the blunter "We're smart! You're dumb!" This from the crowd who interminably claim to be the classiest in all of basketball. Here's what the most reviled fans in college sports don't understand: When everyone already resents you for being a perennial national champion, brainstorming new ways to make fun of people doesn't make you clever. It makes you a ****.

Best laughs I've had in a long time. The writer did a perfect job.

I was sorry to the Bevo Ball Lickers were not in the list, however.

Neither were cow humpers from Stoolwater, alas.

The brilliant minds at West Virginia are currently attempting to start beer sales inside their football stadium. Their rationale is that fan behavior is poor because they currently cannot purchase beer inside the stadium. They feel that by allowing it to be sold, fan behavior will improve.

I'm not making this up.

:facepalm Oh, boy! The last thing rowdy fans need is more beer.

Not surprising, though. I'm from that state and I know how some of those people think.

I guess they're thinking that if fans can purchase inside the stadium they will be less apt to "binge" at the tailgates because they won't feel like they have to cram in all of their drinking prior to the game. If they believe that, well, I've got some magic beans to sell them.

I guess Stillwater Oklahoma is too obscure for GQ magazine. It's understandable that they got overlooked, but OSU fans are by far the worst I've ever seen. They have chips on their shoulder bigger than Pistol Pete and I've received smack-talk from Poke fans after close losses to the Sooners.

I think those are called cow chips here in Oklahoma.

Duke's chants remind me of Rice, however with a slightly different slant.

Whereas Duke's cheers were based on having a better basketball team plus a fancier education, Rice was usually reverse, fancy education but a losing athletic team.

When the other team was trouncing them, their arrogant cheers would be:

"That's all right,
That's okay
because
you'll be working for us someday."

There was a post on a Duke rival's page (not rivals.com necessarily), but it was really funny about the evolution of a typical Duke student into a "Dookie." It started with the pre-Duke experience of getting thrashed on the playground clear into high school (including a beating received by a high-school-aged pre-Dookie by a grade schooler). Then the kid gets to Duke and feels his oats as a Dookie, only to go home for break and then get thrashed by a different grade schooler despite being 19 or so years old at the time.
