Great observations Brent! I have spent a lot of time in small town, western Nebraska and have observed politeness that I have never seen before. I am a CU football fan, because I live in Boulder and can attend the games. I attend the CU/NU game every year it is in Boulder and I have been embarrassed by unruly fans every time!! Drunken kids wanting to fight with every red shirt that walks by, foul language without regard to children sitting nearby, items tossed at players and on and on.... I would love to attend the game in Lincoln, wear my gold and black, and take notes.... I've been told I would be treated with respect. After my friends' assurances, your article, and my own interaction with the fine people of western Nebraska, I would expect nothing less.
I say "Go Big Red" to the nicest "FAN"atics in college ball!!!
