The last time Ohio State played Oregon in football - the 2010 Rose Bowl - some of us might have been too young to get properly acquainted with just how horrible Oregon Ducks fans are.

Trust me, Bama fans are absolute sweethearts compared to Oregon Ducks fans. We tend to get a negative impression of Bama fans because their more rustic "Walmart fans" are especially obnoxious and fit a stereotype. However, a large segment of U. of Alabama alumni and fan base tend to be really nice, gracious people who are passionate students of football.

In contrast, some of the worst Ducks fans went to school there and/or were brought up in nice suburban households, etc., so they have no excuses for their boorish behavior. Their "fans" tend to be brash upstarts - they see themselves as football experts, but are nowhere near as savvy as, say, Texas, USC, or LSU fans.

Ducks fans so annoying that ex-players write letters to the newspaper complaining that the student section is "self-entitled and spoiled" and telling their own fans to "Go F--- Yourself." Oregon fans regularly rank high on "worst of" lists/polls: here, here. here (yes, we all know that Ohio State fans rank high in these "worst fans" lists/polls, too).

How would you describe your interactions with Ducks fans?
