September 15, 200521 yr Ohio State officials said they apologized in e-mails to Texas fans that complained about being harassed while visiting for last Saturday's game. Athletics Director Gene Smith said he responded to about a dozen e-mails from visitors who said Ohio State fans were drunk, violent and used foul language. A spokeswoman said Ohio State President Karen Holbrook also responded to several dozen complaints from University of Texas fans. One reply ended up in a blog on an Austin newspaper's Web site. Holbrook wrote that the university has been trying to change its culture from being disrespectful to welcoming, but work still needs to be done.
September 15, 200521 yr Give me a break! Don't go to away games and grow the hell up. Seriously, of course when you go somewhere else it's going to be hostile. I was at the game and YES, people were hating. But that's what happens. Do people overstep their bounds? Yes, you bet they do. Does it suck? Yes. "Harrassed." Either grow a set or know better and don't go to away games. It's why I don't go to Bengals games in Cleveland. I know better.
September 15, 200521 yr Really, stay the hell at home. College Kids+Alcohol+Night Game+Early gmae of the year+Even More Alcohol = craziness. If Texas is whining about this then Texas A&M better make them a g.d statue to repay them for the harrasment I have seen firsthand them take in College Station. I had 4 Texas fans a row down from me at the game and they were obnoxious as all hell (even when they were down) and seemed to want to start something, so I dont buy this s*** that people were harrased. And if they were, it comes with the teritory. I wouldnt go to a game in Austin to root on my Aggies and be obnoxious, I would just mind my own business and so would everyone else. Lame.
