1. Don’t mess with the Jimmer
Michelle of Apple Valley recently wrote the BYU student newspaper to complain that the worship of basketball star Jimmer Fredette was getting out of hand. Not too long after, the Jimmer fan club made sure her Facebook page got out of hand.
2. Rock Chalk Flash Mob
Flash Mobs are all the rage these days, and what better place to employ them than within another mob at Phog Allen Fieldhouse in Lawrence? Mizzou was so mesmerized, the Jayhawks won by 17. True story.
3. Rupp-tured beer
Pittsburgh Penguin Mike Rupp crashed into the boards during warm-ups and spilled a fan’s beer. He felt so bad he signed a puck and paid for the fan’s next beer. That move alone is more fan friendly than anything Gary Bettman has done.
4. Wrong football
There’s something poetic and awesome about a full speed collision and tackle in a soccer game, and that’s coming from a fan of the beautiful game. Needless to say, this move is going to get you carded.
5. Stay classy, Kansas
Kansas University athletics have hired a crack squad of diehard fans to patrol the campus and ensure athletes make it to class and stay awake once they get there. Of course, that’s trickier to do when you’re 75 and half your time is spent sleeping, as well.
