Salty Fans Who Hate Clemson


Aug 4, 2017, 5:10 PM

A lady (stranger) in the office told me today that she hated my Clemson lanyard. That didn't take long. Today was the first time I had worn the lanyard in months. During the offseason, I don't wear the Clemson lanyard much, because it induces more conversations from strangers than I care for. But, today, I figured, we're just 30 days out from opening day, so I'll go ahead and start to ease out of offseason mode.

When I asked the lady why she hates Clemson, she indicated that she is an Ohio State fan. At that point, I just said, "okay, I get it," and left it at that. She then asked where Clemson was ranked. I responded, "well, as usual, behind Ohio State. That's all I'm going to say." Then, another lady standing with her said the rankings now are basically meaningless. I just quietly chuckled.

It's funny to me that spoiled fans of blue blood programs can't see how ridiculous it is to complain about losing to Clemson. I know Clemson spanked that a$$ real good, but still.

What have your interactions with Ohio State fans been like since O-H-31-0?

Why do dogs always race to the door when the doorbell rings? It's almost never for them.


I work with a buckeye fan.....

But I have a feeling he has 0-3-1-0 clue what happened NYE 2016......

I work for a company in Ohio and I wear orange every Friday; and they groan and complain every Friday. IMO Ohio State has the worst fan base in American sports. They hit the trifecta of disrespectful, entitled, and uninformed.

All of the anti-Clemson remarks I get in the office are just in good fun. I was in office space belonging to my customer and was not sure if she was a customer, or a contractor like myself. Otherwise, I would have smack talked her about her overrated Buckeyes getting blanked by the mighty Clemson defense.

One of my best friends is a buckeye grad

We don't talk about the 31-0 beating, and she's always rooted for us when we aren't playing OSU, and I root for them when they're playing someone I don't care about. Not all buckeye fans are bad. Most of the true jerks are similar to the Bama jerks and ND jerks... bandwagon fans who never attended school there. I've often had a Bama fan say something rude, and I just say, "Clemson class of '07, when did you graduate from Alabama?" They usually have some lame cop out and are easily ignored after that. Hard to sound big and bad when you root for a school because "my great uncle spent two years at Bama in the 70s".

Just because I didn't attend Clemson, I shouldn't root for them?

What a jerk remark

It means, don't be a jerk out in public

You're doing a pretty good job of that yourself. I've been a attending games in Death Valley since before you were born.

Just because you have a degree and I don't, does not give you any right to judge me or any other fan without a degree from our favorite school.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Yes, it does


Aug 5, 2017, 11:10 AM

All I said was that most of the jerk fans of blue blood schools never attended. I wasn't even talking about Clemson fans. No need to get all butthurt. But, real talk, there's just more on the line if you went to the school. A Clemson fan acts a fool, and the team you like looks bad. For us, our school looks bad. It's just different.

Ohio State is sooo great...


Aug 4, 2017, 5:36 PM

She moved 500 miles away from the school.

Now that's love.

and all have been very quiet. Even my physical therapist is a Buckeye fan (not a grad) and has been very gracious in defeat. I would love to play them in the horseshoe... .

When I tell them we will be even K-Nastier on the D-line, they go diving for the Doggy yard crap bags to clean after themselves.

Enjoy it . . .


Aug 4, 2017, 10:29 PM

Enjoy it. Nobody hates you when you suck.

If they hate you, you've likely won alot.

Come to think of it, we just won the National Championship. I wonder if that's why they hate us???
