#12. Dallas Cowboys
Deluded Trash-Talkers
The swaggering diaspora of Dallas fans insufferably mouth off about the invincibility of "America's Team," as if they're rooting for our entire country and not a franchise that has won two playoff games in the past fifteen years. To set the record straight: The nickname came from a 1978 Cowboys highlight reel, not some edict from Uncle Sam. And they've sworn their allegiance to a front-running team that isn't even good enough to run up front anymore.



#10. Louisiana State University Football
Deep-Fried Lunatics
Opposing players and fans who visit Death Valley are considered, as LSU supporters will kindly remind them via drunken shouts to the face, "Tiger bait!" That's the kind of southern hospitality that arises from LSU's signature night games, which allow for a full day of tailgate-based drinking. The administration had to apologize in 2005 after the Tiger faithful so ferociously pelted Tennessee's team bus with beer bottles that they cracked windows. For a story on how hostile LSU tailgaters were to opposing fans, female staffers from the university's student newspaper roamed their school's notorious daylong drinkathon disguised in Alabama gear. "We were groped and squeezed by just about every guy we interviewed," they reported. "The women called us '*****es' and the men called us '****s.' " Anything else? "The amount of times we were spit on also struck a nerve."

You should "Like" LSU on facebook with this in mind. It is HILARIOUS.

These are some examples:
LSU's excellence is a constant.
Tigers live all the days of their lives.
Tiger Pride runs wild. So keep it out in the open where it has lots of room to roam.
Do we like being Tigers? He, he, he... Heck yeah! - 789 likes
Tigers solve problems.
The eye of the Tiger is smiling. (WHAT????)
Tiger Pride surrounds us, penetrates us, and binds the galaxy together. - 364 likes

My favorite update was when they wrote:
"Tigers, pat yourselves on the back this morning. It can be tough handling all that jealousy from the alumni and fans of the other SEC schools. But you do it with grace and charm."

That is just ridiculously hilarious to everyone who isn't an LSU fan. LSU fans eat that up like it was covered in gravy.
