Those Wisconsin Fans Might Not Be So Nice
As the wife of a Tournament of Roses volunteer, I went to the Rose Bowl because we get two free tickets and I love the Stanford band. A chance to see them not only in the parade, but on the field, was a motivating factor in sitting through cold weather, in insufferable seats and behind insufferable cheeseheads.
As individuals, I am sure that fans from Wisconsin are generous and gracious people. As fans they, as a group, smell worse than Limburger cheese. They made deliberate noise throughout the national anthem, just because the Stanford band happened to be playing it. I hate whine with my cheese, so will skip the next game in the Rose Bowl with the Wisconsin fans.
