Chowd Chicks Can't Take Angel Crowd
Every fan of any team that gets its stadium invaded by "The Nation" will be shocked by the bias in this story.

Really?
I went to two Angels games at Candlestick and had a fine time; was decked out in my full garb, cheering every play — even when we touched up Mr. Cy Young Lincecum himself.
Though, I’ve definitely gotten shit from M’s fans — though I did provoke most of it and was surrounded by cops at one point — and in Atlanta. Other than that, never had a problem

6th page comment
My friend was in this section two nights ago, they told me that the boyfriend of these two was completely hammered the whole game. He was trying to fight anyone with an Angel hat on, and even the police officer. He was standing most of the game when people were sitting. It is unforunate this happend to these girls but she needs to choose a better boyfriend.
which sounds more like the truth. Probably right in front of the Bud-villion

Yeah
Actually the HH user Figgi4Life posted this after he got back from game 1:
“I forgot the best part!!! There was a BoSox fan who was getting into it with some Angels fans, just a shouting match, though. So, they get some ushers up there, and everything settles down. But later, it gets a little worse. The fans get closer, and finally some yellow-shirted security guards go up.
Hell ensues.
The Sox fan tries to get to the Angels fan, but security holds him. S
o what’s the logical thing to do?
Punch the security guard, of course!
Bad move. Some real cops come up, but not before a different angels fan takes off the sox fan’s hat and throws it all the way down to the area below the state farm sign in right field. But, once the real cop was up there, it was over."

Hmm
I was in section 238. There were a few times when something seemed to be happening in the stands and everyone stood and turned to watch. I got annoyed because I had paid good money to try to watch a baseball game [and I’m not complaining. I got my money’s worth; Torii Hunter saw to that.]

For the life of me I’ll never understand fans like these.
How do two So Cal Latina girls that were born & raised in the shadows of the Big A & Chavez Ravine support another team in a state that they probably couldn’t even find on a map? I can just imagine how unpublished parts of the interview went:
Boston Herald: So what did you think of Beckett’s performance last night?
Bandwagon Girls: Who’s that? We were there to see Manny but somehow missed him. Is he hurt?

granted, i want to yankee stadium last year (in a college shirt, i heard stories of their fans), and actually they weren’t too bad. when myself and some others near me where cheering Tex’s grand slam, and the yankees came back, they just shouted ‘where are you know angels fans’ and we stood up, and they started cheering us for being men

I am a Rays fan in Boston
and they will throw you out for any reason.
I was thrown out of a game in the ALCS for moving up closer to the field once the “fenway faithful” started streaming out. And when I say thrown out, I mean the cops grabbed me and tossed me. Wasn’t drunk, just moving closer with a Rays hat on.
Do not use your thundersticks. They will toss you. Another buddy of mine used his cowbell once… tossed.

I, for one, am proud of our no-longer-taking-your-stupid-shit compatriots.
‘Bout damn time the Big A became a hostile environment. Boston fans are always lauding how “passionate” the Fenway Faithful are about baseball. Maybe you should consider the possibility that people in Anaheim are also passionate about baseball? If you haven’t won a playoff series against a team since 1986, there’s bound to be some bitterness. And for God’s sake, if you’re standing up while EVERYONE ELSE is sitting down, you’re asking for trouble. Retards.

The worst "fans" in sportsl are the chowds
Dodger fan is like a Harvard fan compared to these losers. I had season tickets for the last 6 years in right field and for some reason that’s where all of these Betty Ford rejects seem to congregate. Every time Boston came in you would have to watch what you wore because you didn’t want to wear anything too stainable or ripable because inevitably some drunken chowd monkey would;
1. run their drunk mouth
2. insult your family heritage
3. throw a beverage or food item, leading to
4. fight night in section 235
I hate the Red Sox more than any sports team in the universe. I hate that no matter where you go in the world some tool has a Saux hat on and talks with that stupid accent. I hope we win by 9000 runs on Sunday.

Friday nite I was sitting in front of a chick in Sux gear.
I made some comment to another Angels fan that she probably couldn’t name anyone on the team before 2004, and she told me she’d been a fan since the early ’90s (at which point she was probably in her teens), and backed it up. I gave her her props for being a true fan and not a bandwagonner, and then went back to booing the Sux.
Later on, she asked “why the Monkey?”, so I explained Rally Monkey history to her.

I'm shocked to hear that she was knowledgeable concerning the sux.
That’s what is so unfortunate when you have a fan base that is so heavily fairweather and bandwagoneer in nature. I tend to lump most sux fans in these categories. Nice to hear that you had the fortune to sit near a TRUE sux fan. Luckily there weren’t that many sux fans near me, but the ones I did see, well, bandwagon comes to mind, when you leave at the top of the 9th and your team is up to bat, what would you call yourself, other than a fairweather?

daddy: what sweetheart? are you crying?
fat ass: yes, i hate the angels!
daddy: what happened and who did this to you?
fat ass: well, daddy me and sis and chad went to the sox/angels game and we know what hell is, it’s angel fans!
daddy: what exactly happened?
fat ass: we were at the game, MINDING OUR OWN BUSINESS and for NO REASON AT ALL some fans, horrible people were picking on us just because we’re sox fans.
daddy: were they drunk?
fat ass:daddy you have no idea how drunk they were, it was worse than grandpa’s house. and you know chad doesn’t drink, we had to drag him away from his LSAT test prep. guide. and me or sissy don’t like to drink, the taste uhhh icky. we just sat quietly in our seats and were very respectful even to the angels if they made a good play. we were on our best behavior because we are visitors in their house.
daddy: just like taught you
fat ass: and they targeted us and picked on us and made fun of my…….(BALLING) my BUTTTTTTTT. i had years of counseling and thought i was in a good place but those evil, evil people, DADDDDDYYY!!!
daddy: it’s going to be ok sweety, i’ll get you that new mercedes to make everything alright. was there anything else.

And it begs the question, what you do love? A borough that smells like piss is a given, and over paying for high priced FA’s is another (remember those great skankee pick ups, Pavano, Knoblauch, and Winfield?), I guess what you truly love is a team that will pay anything to anybody, and builds a billion dollar stadium that the average fan can’t afford to go to. Kudos for being a stereotypical, skank fan, and New Yorker, and a belated thanks for reminding me why I despise the skanks, and their arrogant, ignorant fans.

There isn’t one apologetic Angels fan in this thread. We’ve had enough of this bullshit and I love it.
I was, by the grace of God, able to attend both playoff games (my first 2 playoff games ever). The ratio of Angels fans to Boston fans was incredibly disproportional in our favor and we made our presence known. We were loud, we killed any “Let’s Go Red Sox” chant with a thundering chant of our own and, by the end of the night, just about every Sox “fan” had cleared out of section 529. The (relatively) cheap seats bring out the best in people.

Oh, and not to mention the “HGH” chant that would start up every time David Obese came up to bat.

At the Red Sox-Yankees game a couple of weeks ago
The scoreboard listed David Ortiz as 6’5" tall and weight of 230lbs. 230 lbs !!!!! When was the last time this guy was weighed? Third grade?

I didn't say HGH... I just shouted "STER-OIDS"

go to any ballpark in the postseason
this will happen guaranteed.
i agree why is it in the paper – because it happened to boston fans (so the boston paper had to report it)? give me a break. and if that is the worst the happens, being called a fat a++, then who cares. i guess they were home-schooled spoiled brats who got everything they wanted.
guess they have never heard of the yankees-red sox rivalry.
like i said earlier if it was the wag and children of the opposing team that is one thing, but this is plan dumb.

they aren't even talking about it on over the monster = no big deal
but there was an article linked that tried to compare them to the 2003, 2004, and 2007 teams for being on the brink of elimination and coming back…but then they said they don’t have a rallying cry.

They must act like such saints at Fenway for them to have such a culture shock sitting with us animals here in Anaheim :(

Got to love the comments thread in the story
Most of the Boston fans in the comments section, to their credit, are not impressed with these girls’ complaints. Though they could just be incognito Yankees fans.

Too Funny!
I haven’t been to any games at the Big A since the late 80s but since I live in Nebraska I make the Texas-Chicago-Minneapolis-Kansas City games whenever I can. I wear the colors proudly and find that people will generally not mess with you if show even a modicum of knowledge about their team, i.e. bench players names, stats and the like. The fact that I’m 6’3" and 240 may have some influence as well.

Agree:
I quote myself:
Be conscious of the other team’s history and their successes against your team. Wow the “enemy” fans with your distinct knowledge of their team, their traditions, and their victories. Keep track of their lowest points, too, so you can have a retort to them beating on your team too bad, if necessary.
in this fanpost on “stadium etiquette for visiting fans” linked HERE in a Halos Heaven Fanpost.
I love this team.

assuming dude in black t-shirt is loverboy?
the guy in the Angels jersey looks like he is trying to use every ounce of self control he has and then just loses it

I agree that this article is complete BS
You’re at a playoff game, wearing the opponent’s colors, you’re standing at inappropriate times, and by all accounts, one of your party is acting like an a-hole and picking fights with hometown fans. And the worst that happens to you is that you get called a fat ass? And that’s SEXUALLY EXPLICIT? Ummm, no.
That said, your comment on the BTF thread was completely inappropriate Rev and added nothing to the discussion over there. Do you always have to act the inciter?
I feel the need, the need...for speed!

You know what? Screw them!! Boston Fans routinely come into our stadium and act like complete ASSHOLES while Angel fans just sit quietly and take it. It’s about time we started throwing these asshats out of our stadium, since our season ticket holders are so determined to sell their seats to them!
And these two California traitors have obviously never been to Fenway Park if they think Boston fans don’t act like complete idiots to opposing teams’ fans. Even the TEAM pulls crap like shutting off the hot water to the showers.
And they can call us classless all they want. How many Rangers or mariners fans do you see getting in fights in our stadium or catching crap? None, you say? Maybe it’s because they don’t act like ASSHOLES. What really pisses me off about the whole thing is that 90% of them aren’t even real followers of the Sux!!!! How could they be???They live here!! The ONLY way to even watch Sux games for them would be to have an MLB.COM subscription. And you know DAMNED WELL they aren’t doing that. So they basically just put on a hat and invade our stadium, insulting our ture fans and acting like drunken, belligerent idiots!!
Get out of our stadium, stay out of our bars, get out of our CITY! See that A on our hats?? IT MEANS NOT WELCOME!!!!

I love going to baseball games, but I’m not going to go anymore, if I’m going to be harassed.
I care.
Apologies in advance.
