UNC Student all wrong

This letter is in response to Claire Williamson’s “UNC Student’s Perspective” published Nov. 12. There is really no other way to express my reaction to Claire’s article other than “excuse me?” While I do not disagree with your claim that some State fans need to show a little more class, I disagree wholeheartedly with your assumed claim that UNC fans do not need to do so as well. Sure, you do not consider yourself a classless UNC fan, but I can guarantee you that a myriad of your classy, refined, clean-mouthed, respectful brethren at Chapel Hill are.

Having been the away fan at Kenan and the Dean Dome several times, supporting several teams on several different occasions, I have had the unfortunate privilege of navigating my way through just as many drunk, speech slurring idiotic bellowers of ill-constructed attempts at insults as you have here at Carter-Finley. Your obvious ignorance of the fact that this is not a one-way path of disrespect and classlessness is demonstrative of what is surely preparatory bias acquired in the UNC School of Journalism, so I understand.

Wolfpack fan with class

Alright, so you saw a few bad apples in the bunch of red Wolfpack fans. Well, you know I haven’t been over to Chapel-Hill for game day yet, but I’d be willing to bet there are some fans on your end that are a mill bar short of hurricane. The point here is that there will always be those people that take rivalry too far, that really don’t like anything to do with those amongst the opposing fan base coming here and cheering against the home team. You have that everywhere you go, certainly I was there booing out UNC along with rest of the students in the crowd, but I along with most us, were not giving you that kind of flak. You have a bunch that do that to us when we’re playing on your home turf, so don’t give us grief when you have the same problem.

I don’t know about those oddballs here, but as for me, I’m a part of the Wolfpack that has class!

Go Wolfpack!
