I was poking around the threads about the big game against Pitt and saw so many heated discussions. There were some posts and threads made my people from the Pitt school. They were saying stuff about 'class'. I think we got more class because we accepted it. What do you all think? Does WVU lack class?

We don't have a lack of class. We have loyalty. We don't let other people come into our city and trash talk our team and get out without a black eye.

I'd love to see a pitt fan in a student bar after a game... Thank god the state police will escort them out, otherwise God only knows what would happen.

Don't expect to come into our stadium dressed in your teams gear and walk around without being ridiculed. Further more, don't EVER EVER walk into a bar in Morgantown on game day wearing the opponents gear.. expect to be escorted out by the police for YOUR OWN SAFETY.

This thread reminds me of the time I was sitting in the student section in college and a couple of Miami fans got "lost" and thought it would be funny to sit in the student section. 10 State Troopers later they finally made it out of the stands with only minor injuries. I bet I saw $100 worth of soda and snacks thrown at those sorry fans.

Oh god, I wish I was there! I got hit on by one of the Pitt players once and he almost got trashed by my fiancee. Lucky for him, there was a couple of cups nearby. I can't wait for the Fiesta, I'll be able to go this time.
