Penn State Cult (Joe Knew)

I've mentioned it here before, but I find it funny that they insist that you shouldn't be a fan without having gone to school there.

I would have said did you attend or graduate from Ohio State?
Ohio State fan? Or Ohio State alum?
I would have asked what year he graduated from O$U. If he said he didn’t attend I would have smirked and if he told you a year I would have asked how his diploma was working for him
Did he say fan or alum? IF someone like that says they are a "fan" I ask when they graduated from the school in question. If they say something alone the lines of "I didn't go, just a fan". I say, "Oh... then shut the fvck up"


Someone actually mentions something about everyone being snowflakes. Others respond that, yeah, the first dude is a giant wuss.

I'm continuously amazed by how sensitive people here are and this one is a new level

I understand the reason, but the sport doesn't exist like it is now without fans that did not attend the school. This includes that cesspool of PSU. I have yet to run into a fan minus one 60-something dude that ever attended the showers...or classrooms there.

It’s a Woody-given birth right to be a Buckeye fan if you are from Ohio. I bleed Scarlet and Gray as much as anybody and my degree is from another state university. I have never understood this logic that you can’t be a fan unless...
with that said my daughter is down to Ohio State and Northwestern if she gets accepted. so...Go Bucks.

Agree. Throw on top of that the fact that most of us formed our opinions about what teams we wanted to root for long before we decided on our college choice, if we even went to college. I liked Ohio State football long before I needed to figure out where I wanted to go to school. It is for this reason, being a kid with a rooting interest and living in Minneapolis, that I still like the Minnesota Gophers. Not enough to take the Gophers over the Buckeyes, of course.

My father is an alum. No i dont know the year but i could run the numbers. MS from Clev State, and he was more proud of the post-grad completed while working and herding 2 toddler brats.
My Aunt worked in Admissions and Math dept for decades, recently retired. Two of her grandkids are in now, one in TBDBITL.
I graduated from MCRD San Diego, nominally completing a BS from Indiana online (1 class at a time... never seen the campus), while working at a University in Maryland.
I grew up watching Hoying on Saturdays and Kosar on Sundays with dad and maternal grandpa (blue collar welder WWII Navy vet). They stole the real Browns ... so fuck anyone that says we cant root for Ohio State.
