Big surprise, the fans have learned nothing.
 
In the wake of the Oklahoma State player/fan disturbance, and all the national clamor about fan behavior, we present to you the ending of the Syracuse-Pittsburgh game last night. If you care to find the video, after Tyler Ennis hits a 35-footer at the buzzer to win, he runs to the other end of the court in celebration. The camera then finds one fan vehemently yelling, "F--- You!" at Ennis, while the fan next to him flips Ennis two birds. Security stands by and predictably does nothing.

On a positive note, I actually went up to a fan at my game on Monday night during a time out, shook his hand, and told him thank you for being the best fan I had had all year long. His team was behind 15 points the entire second half and all he did was boisterously cheer for a comeback, urging his team on. I told him, "If every fan was like you, I would have the easiest job in the world."

I think they like me at that school now. :D

Home team was down by 12 in the fourth quarter the other night and I hear one disgruntled fan yell, "You DO know this is a home game for us, right?"

Ooh, I guess I'll start changing the way I call now. :rolleyes:
