I hate to paint an entire fan base with a wide brush...but almost each time I encounter Bears fans I have a negative experience.
Last year when I went to Soldier Field my brother and I had popcorn thrown at us for most of the first half. I also went to the bathroom and on the way back to my seat was asked by a Bears fan, "You're a Rams fan?"...clearly wearing a Rams hoodie and hat it was pretty obvious, but I just nodded with a "yep"...to which the response I got was, "Well fuck you".
Today at the dome there were a couple guys, probably early to mid twenties...every other word out of their mouths was either fuck or jackoff. Now, I have a mouth of a sailor and drop my share of F bombs, especially during a BS call or bad play at a football game...but I think we all know the difference between dropping an F bomb out of frustration and being caught in the moment and just spewing profanity for the sake of hearing yourself say it...and this same couple guys were running their mouth about Ram players and how inferior they were...and how inferior the Rams as an organization and St.Louis as a city was. My buddy who is a Bears fan just kept shaking his head and commenting about how embarrassing they were.
I just find it to be too many circumstances to chalk it up as a coincidence. Not my idea of a model fanbase.
