Spoke to a Bama fan in Columbia Yesterday


Sep 13, 2019, 11:38 AM

.... my wife and I celebrated 15 years together yesterday and while out to dinner near the capitol last night (also near the school) we saw a ton of Bama fans walking around and a few in our restaurant. I spoke to one of them briefly and he was super nice. Complimented our Tigers and said he hopes we have a repeat title match so they could even the score. Ha. His wife then asked "is this all there is to Columbia?" I told her we do have lots of good restaurants and beautiful places like Lake Murray.. to which she replied "good! Because this area of town is just horrible."

Pretty much sums up the Carolina campus area - "horrible."

You forgot the only thing to do in Columbia. Leave as quick as possible.

Reminds me of one of my favorite Columbia jokes

What is the best thing to ever come out of Columbia?

I-26

Sherman. Feel like that might also be a valid answer.

2. Getting kidnapped, raped and murdered by a fake Uber driver

####, that is funny. Just got back to Aiken from Cooterville. Could not agree more.

You omitted many cultural traditions, such as


Sep 13, 2019, 7:50 PM [ in reply to Here is my list of things to do in Columbia ]

Has sex in the parking lot

Dumpster diving

Throwing water bottles at games

Leaving for good at halftime

The unique, dead roach style stadium

Free Hootie concerts for 6 wins

Drive by shootings

Crips and Bloods car wash fundraisers

Live PD

It's a cultural oasis

I believe the traveling fan base is much different than the at-home, excuse making, Finebum-calling portion of the fan base.

I have had positive interactions with their fans when we play them.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

I have never had an issue with a Bama fan in person.


Sep 13, 2019, 11:43 AM

I've been in Alabama a few times in the last couple of years. A couple of times someone said something a bit smart but to me. Found out one was a UTenn fan the other was an Albarn fan. Bama fans always congratulate.

I think that's the case with most fans though. If my only interactions with South Carolina fans were in person then I'd probably view it more as a friendly rivalry. The online version of fans will typically bring out the worst in people.

I like Bama fans. They have their bad apples, but so do we.

The best place in Columbia is the center..... because whatever direction you go, you're leaving.

You sure they were real Bama fans? Probably hard to tell with all the Cocktides wearing there Bama gear.

badge-donor-10yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up


Be more specific. Was this a bama fan wearing gamecock gear


Sep 13, 2019, 2:57 PM

or a bama fan wearing Bama gear? Columbia is always crawling with bama fans.

The best thing about Columbia is that it’s only about 2 hour drive to anywhere else you’d rather be.

Have you ever been to Tuscaloosa? I hate Uof SC more than anyone but Columbia is the Paris of America compared to that craphole.

The Columbia city motto is an hours drive from somewhere nice.
