Pitt fans at the ACCGC
Dec 4, 2018, 3:08 PM

Most were easy enough to chat with, especially standing around pre-game watching the SECCG.
My only takeaway: I haven't seen that many Marino jerseys since I once walked into the Dolphins fan store.
I didn't even see a Ditka jersey.

I do like the colors they used from their 70's vintage unis. They looked very sharp till we muddied them up

I prefer the look of their vintage unis... but changing the "brand" in a championship game is a bit odd.

My pitt fan ACCCG story
Dec 4, 2018, 3:19 PM

I'm at the buffalo's urinal when a pitt fan next to me says something like
"I hope yall dont beat us too bad"
I said, if pitt could beat the 2016 team they can beat the 2018 team. ..anythings possible.
He said "no way, had a nfl rb that year. Not this year"
At that time another pitt fan walked up to urinal 3. He said, "no way, this rb is bigger, faster and better"
Then they starred arguing about which of their RBS was better. I walked off. They may still be in there arguing.

No Iron Mike jerseys, but I saw a couple of Dorsett jerseys.That led me to ask one around my age if he remembered the '77 bowl game and Dorsett's long run ending with him holding the ball out at our defender? He did. I then told him that if we had a long td we would not do that because our coaches would not tolerate plays like that---- well all it took was one play, after the play the guy smiled and waved at me.

TD never played against CU. His last year was 76 when they won natty.

They were much cooler than Miami fans. What a bunch of d-bags the cane fans are.

I have never had the feeling many of them are actually folks w ties to the school. there seems to be this group of folks who are a tad unconventional that are drawn to that program.

Did you miss when their fans flipped off our team with both hands when we took the field?
But they weren't all a-holes. There were a few cool ones.
With that said, Nancy State/U5Cjr. fans win the dewshbaggery award for worst fans.

The ones in front of us kept talking about all the championships in Pittsburgh with the Penguins, the Celtics, the Red Sox. After he finished I said "The scoreboard says 28-10. No threat of y'all getting another one here".
