Last night I went to the 49ers/Raiders Game at Monster Park in SF. My first thought as I walked to the stadium was - "Geez, what a ghetto spot for a stadium." Seriously, WTF. Got lost trying to get there, MUNI is confusing as F**K, and had to walk from the craptastic train to the park.
Once there (about 1/2 way into the 2nd quarter) I was HECKLED by EVERY SINGLE 49ER FAN! Standing in line for a couple of crappy hot dogs, some jackass kept coming up to me flashing his homemade t-shirt. WTF.
The next guy he did it to told him to get lost, and the niner fan threw a punch! Next thing they're both scrapping, and the security tosses out the Raider fan! At this point, they stop ALL alcohol sales in the entire park. Apparently 49er fans can't handle it when their team is losing.
So I get back to my seat with my hot dogs and soda, and continue to hear nothing but heckling and smack-talking by everyone around me. Here is where I'm noting a difference between the fans.
I have sat in the "Black Hole," and seen poor misplaced fans there as well. No, the black hole is NOT where you want to sit if you're cheering for the opposing team. Yes, some jackass Raider fan threw his beer down on the poor sap. And yeah, that fool jumped down three rows and tackled the guy. But guess what?
The rest of the black hole threw the other Raiders fan OUT. Stood up for the other guy. I didn't see that happening at the 49er game.
So really, I think that "The Faithful" are FAR more misbehaved than "The Nation." The next time I get free tickets to a 49er game, I'm selling the tickets.
