Xavier, UK, and OSU fans at UC games
I've been noticing a lot of UK, Xavier, and OSU dorks lurking around BBT this year at our games. What is the deal with that? I've seen other fans at games before, but at BBT it has been more than normal. Why do they go to our games and then put on their stupid team shirts to go to the games, I would understand if it was NKU.

I have been to every game save one and cannot say I have seen what you describe. tO$U gear at UC FB games? Absolutely. tO$U, eggs & UK at BB games? Not really.

You are correct that football games are a lot worse with Suckeye gear. X not as much at the hoops game, but I did see one X dude. Mostly UK and OSU. Oh well, I don't even know why I care. If they want to spend money on our team, more power to them.

I saw a photo someone posted on Sunday of some guy at the Bengals games sporting a Manziel Browns jersey. I think some people just slap on whatever random gear they have to go to a game without much thought.

UK gear @ NKU wouldn't surprise me. I think there are college basketball fans in Northern KY who were excited to see big time college basketball on their side of the river and will attend selected games, especially with an SEC team in the house.

As to the OSU gear @ UC football, I agree, we'll take their ticket/parking/concession money and ignore the dreadful gray and scarlet attire. Perhaps some are following Fickell as he coaches "little brother" as some condescending Buckeye fans have told me.

Surely people realize that most fans are not anywhere near as diehard as those that take the time to post on a message board right? He’ll everyone else in my family watches a whole lot of sports and they all root for UC first but also root for X and osu because they’re “local”. Though they do all root against UK. uK fans will have that affect on people I suppose.

I would imagine there are a bunch of people going to the games who normally would not. As we all know living here, there are people on the KY side of the river who avoid crossing the bridge if they have to (and in fairness, there are people on the Ohio side of the river who do the same).

I know quite a few OSU football/KY basketball fans who live in NKY (including two co-workers of mine, one a UK grad and the other who went to Thomas More).

If they're actual osu alumni rooting for UC, I really don't have a problem with it. Thanks for the cash. Unfortunately, I think the majority probably come from osu's teeming mass of unwashed t-shirt alumni and are just obsessed with constantly touting some "relationship" with a school they never attended.

I will root for X and OSU because Cincinnati high schoolers play on their teams. But no one else in my family will.

I refuse to root for Kentucky though.

Graduated from Ohio State myself and went to the game yesterday with a non UC graduate and huge UK fan. Both were wearing UC gear.

RE: Xavier, UK, and OSU fans at UC games
We sat next to two UK fans at the game last night. They live close to NKU and decided they wanted to see a UC game since it was close to their house. They were dressed neutral though. We only knew they were UK fans because we talked to them.
