This should just confirm what many X and UD fans have been saying - it will be a hostile environment for us tomorrow, which is something we are all used to already. The last X-UD game I went to in Dayton was as a senior in '11, where I had beer thrown on me and was called a bitch a few times. I don't judge the UD fanbase at all because 1. every program has bad fans (Xavier included) and 2. I have good friends who went to UD. But where is the line drawn anymore? UD players and fans don't have sex with watermelons; it's a really outdated, stupid rumor started by Xavier fans that shouldn't be perpetuated further. I honestly don't find this rivalry fun anymore, not because of differences in the programs, but because of how far BOTH fanbases have taken it. Every conversation on this board becomes off base and turns into a pissing contest when UD is brought up. I find it tiresome to read as an X fan, so I can only imagine how tiresome it has grown for fans of other BE schools.
I'm off my soap box and will be at the game tomorrow with my boyfriend, and I'm hoping for a more pleasant experience because it is just a game after all. GO X!
