I often see posts complaining about fans at other schools.

I've been to Purdue, Michigan, Michigan State, USC, Indiana, Northwestern, Oklahoma, the 90's Cotton Bowls, the Dallas playoff games, and I'm probably forgetting a few. I've never experienced anything negative but the common drunken heckler (not directed directly at me).

Is this the majority experience, and the bad experiences are from a vocal few?
