The problem isn't the extreme examples, it's where the average lies. And there is no way to quantify that except from personal experience. And, to be fair to you, there are a lot of east coasters on this so there won't be as much talk about Chicago fans. But it's not like we're just spewing stuff we see on TV. The people on this site spend a lot of time at live games, and a lot of us feel that Philly fans are undesirable to be around. I don't think anybody is saying that Philly fans have a laundry list of news-catching extreme moments. We're saying that the average level of fan douchebag-ness is higher on the whole.
