    As someone from Ohio (not near Columbus), I can’t stand those assholes. I like the school, but their football fans are intolerable

      As a Columbus transplant we all hate them. Good university, massive pain in the ass to live near, worst part of town to try to do anything in, fucking football fans…

        I’ve lost count of the amount of times I’ve been asked, “you’re from Ohio? Why aren’t you an Ohio state fan?”

        Anecdotally, every bar fight I’ve almost been in has been with ohio state fans. One was when Marcus mariotta got hurt in the championship game and the bar I was at erupted in cheers and I called them out for being dick heads. The other was when a guy in an Ohio state shirt approached me and told me I needed to, “get my bitch on a leash” referring to my wife.

        I actually enjoy watching them play football, their fans just fucking suck so bad

          I accidentally wore a wolverines starter jacket around Columbus for a week one winter while I was on a business trip. Couldn’t figure out why the waiters were all so curt with me until one of the locals made a comment on the job site.

          In retrospect it’s a miracle I didn’t get accosted by a season ticket holder.
