How much Crimson do you bleed?

I totally swpied this from a rivals blog but couldn't help myself. Its pretty simple. How big of a fan are you? Just follow the rules and post your results in the poll and on the comments.

What's the measure of a true college football fan? How do you demonstrate your fanhood to the great masses? What separates a real fan from a lessor one, or even a (shudder) bandwagon fan? Perhaps we can help you determine this. Take our little quiz below that looks like it could have come right out of Cosmopolitan magazine, then rank yourself accordingly. It's real simple. Give yourself 5 points for each of the 20 statements below that apply to you and add up your score. We'll interpret the results for you below.


For the first group of statements, please determine which the following apply to you in your lifetime:

1) Is anyone in your immediate family an alum?

2) Are you an alum?

3) Know all the words to Yea Alabama?

4) Have you ever gotten into an altercation (you define) with opposing fans at or near the game, before, during or after?

5) Ever committed an act of vandalism during a game weekend either to exalt our team or disparage the other?

6) Road-tripped to an away game?


For the second group of statements, please determine which of the following apply to you in the last ten years:

7) If you haven't attended them, have you watched every single televised game in a season?

8) Watched a game on pay-per-view, either purchasing it or see it at a bar?

9) Attended a home game in person?

10) Held a season ticket, either purchased directly or on the secondary market?

11) Tailgated before the game?

12) Travelled to an away game (including bowls)?

13) Been to a Bowl Game?

14) Taken or ridden on a RV to a game (not partied on one once it was there)?

15) Shown up to a game without a ticket, intending to actually go inside the stadium?

16) Does your vehicle have any permanently affixed displays of your team?

17) Wear partisan clothing on game day?

18) Belong to or attend functions of a booster club, including going to see the coach speak?

19) Donate money to the athletic department (outside of purchasing tickets)?

20) Visit an opposing team's blog sites to scout it out?


RESULTS:

75-100: You're a damn good fan!

50-70: You're going to have to run wind sprints after practice!

0-45: I'm really surprised you're on a college football blog. Did you make a wrong turn on eBay?

What did I leave out? Also, be sure to leave your score in the comments section. And since honesty is such a lonely word, it's mostly what we need from you!

FanPosts are just that; posts created by the fans. They are in no way indicative of the opinions of SBN and the authors of Roll Bama Roll.

I once asked the question why are there so many Alabama fans that never graduated from the university? I was told its because their parents were fans and it was passed down.........(my response after a pause).....similar to racism.....?

Your memory...

…must suck like your team and your sig since you’ve trolled here before. Does the thread “Bo Jackson’s final exam” ring any bells?

Didnt

they teach you at Alabama not to end your sentences with a preposition! If you did infact go to Alabama? If you did that dosent say much

You are one sick puppy...

I have hated you people all my life and you have now proved why that makes me a genius. You actually took the time to go to my profile, open a gmail account in the name of “Ugly bama bitch” in order to send me a hate email? What class.

RBR readers, must share this lovely email with you titled “Hey Bitch” -
“War Eagle mother fucker”

Thank you, God, for letting me be born into a legacy family that’s been going for 3 generations. Whether we win or lose, we are still the good guys. I am forever grateful.

Well, duh...

I didn’t know that. You obviously don’t read and comprehend. In my post above, I said the account was opened with the username “Ugly bama bitch”. Chicken shit that the “phantom” emailer is wouldn’t have the b**ls to use his real email address. It was sent 3 minutes after your 1st post to me. Connect the dots.

You talk about class likes its something you have. But in fact you wouldn’t know it if it cut off your tiny dick. You ripped every Bama fan that came on Track Em Tigers for doing the very thing you are doing right now. Go away you little hypocrite and die. Your life is pointless and has no meaning. So, please SHUT THE FUCK UP and go back to whatever hole you crawled out of this morning you vile piece of shit!

I did nearly get in a fight

with some drunk Auburn frat boys after the 06 Iron Bowl. My sister went to the game with me and was actually talking the loudest, and they felt froggy until they saw me. I was not to be messed with that night.

75! Woo-Hoo

Got into an “altercation” with an Arky fan last year. Stupid hogs.

Altercation with numerous

UT fans throughout the years, one ending in me being locked up and him in the ER after last game in hickville. Drunk ignorant guy had to run his mouth to my girlfriend at the time and threaten her. Bad Call

When you

Auburn fans are like slinkys... not really good for anything but they still bring a smile to your face when you push them down a flight of stairs.

Never been to a UA bowl game and I don’t have anything with UA permanently fixed to my car. Although, I should get those 5 pts because I did have a Bama sticker on my car when I went to UT and parked in the deck every day for 3 yrs. And yes, some asshole UT student backed into my and drove off. I still have a big dent in the rear quarter panel of my truck to keep my hatred at a boiling point.

I wouldn't piss off the boys from Alabama . . .

I had a jackass

tennessee fan on I-40 one day pull up behind me, see my plate and sticker, then he bolted to get infront of me, slammed his brakes on, threw his coke bottle full of dip spit out the window, and broke my front glass.

Just did get 75

Being a (very small) part of the media last year, I have been to a few press conferences. I also got into a fight after the LSU game in ‘05, and got in a pretty heated argument at this year’s Georgia game in a Dairy Queen.

Most of my family are alum, myself included and we keep going back! I am in school online for yet another degree. That is why I just can’t spare any more money and cannot get an A on THIS exam! Also, with all of the season tickets and tailgating, NONE of us own an RV. We suck. What a bunch of egg-heads we are. I am calling a family meeting to get our priorities straight.

by crimsongirl on Oct 20, 2008 2:47 PM CDT reply actions  

I hear ya

they are the worst fans ever. I was glad as hell to get out of there. I have been to a ton of games at Neyland (including non-UA games), but I will never forget the last time Bama played there the crowd chanting fuck Bama. It was clearly audible even on the replay. How classless. I was in the Bama section (that thin strip of 5 rows they put all the way around the south endzone) and I looked right at the only two UT fans there and said “At least when the game is over we get to leave this shithole.” After 3 yrs of living there I was so glad to make that statement.

Oh, I just thought of a better one Comer

my wife worked for the local govt when we lived in Knoxville and she had a Bama sticker on her car and an Alabama plate, not the univ. plate, but a standard state issued plate. Some asshole at her work, yes a govt building, told here she better take that Alabama stuff off her car or it would be vandalized (implying by him). So she took the sticker off even though I asked her not to. He still told her she needed to get rid of the license plate or the car would get vandalized. My wife can be a firecracker and finally asked what his fucking problem was. She asked if he hated the University of Alabama or the entire state. His reply, “I hate anybody that’s not a Vol.” This was a couple of weeks into our time in Knoxville and this situation summed up 3 yrs there pretty well.

You guys who live or have lived...

…in or near that orange infested cesspool deserve a lot of credit. I could not do it. I would end up wearing orange too – the kind the prisoners wear.

I had a bit of a problem with an Ole Miss fan who was 2 rows in front of me this past Saturday. He took issue with how much and how loud I was yelling when we were leading 24-3. He was surrounded by Bama fans except for his 2 buddies. How stupid was he?

Amazingly, I have to do wind sprints, in spite of my obvious fanaticism. My first embarrassing admission. I am bringing out the big guns Friday. Definitely on the sleazy side.
