Since moving out of New England, I've had to catch most of my live Pats games in 'enemy territory.' So far I guess we've been pretty lucky, but I have to say that I was appalled at the treatment I got from the Titans fans at this past Sunday's game in Nashville. The locals were great to us before the game, but during and after?? There was the usual "Brady sucks," but along with that, there was the "hey, girl, in the Brady jersey! Get out of our section before we make better use of you, you <insert nasty four-letter word here>!" I was also spit on and had stuff thrown at me, just for sitting there (definitely not instigating). My poor husband, fearing for my safety, made us leave our seats for the concourse before halftime! While walking back to our hotel, a Titans fan threw a beer bottle at me from a car window.
I guess I expect it as a visiting fan to, say, Ohio State from Michigan (on one trip, car tires were slashed), but to a town that has has a team for less than a decade? I've gotten better treatment at Yankee stadium!
I guess that was me just venting. . .but I'm curious as to where you guys have had some bad fan experiences at away games??

Nasty but Philadelphia is worse. The only courtesy I ever saw was to Gene Upshaw 15 years ago, now, they'd probably beat the crap outta him too.

Re: Worst fans?
Houston fans were pretty bad when I went there a little over three years ago.
Planning on going to the Pats-Cowboys game, but from the TV it seems like there's always a large amount of away fans in Texas Stadium. I remember a season or two ago it seemed that Steelers fans populated half of the stadium. Hopefully Pats fans can make just as good of a turn out.

Been going to Pats Road trips for 20+ years. Been to Miami, Houston, San Diego, Kansas City, Denver, Oakland, Chicago, Minnesota, New Orleans, Carolina, Atlanta, San Fransisco, and Arizona. This year we're doing Dallas & Baltimore. 2008 is Seattle. No question on the WORST fans in the world...

#2 Denver
#1 OAKLAND
Those Chokeland fans are ANIMALS. Just downright ANGRY people. Talk about needing to watch your back. You can't even go to the restroom unless you've got a crew to go with you.
NICEST fans HANDS DOWN are Kansas City. Nicest PLACE to go to has to be either San Diego or Arizona. Weather is awesome, golf is great, and nightlife is fun. LAMEST place... Minnesota. City is dead & no one cares about the Vikings. It's a HOCKEY town for sure. When you mention football, the GOPHERS rank ahead of the Vik's.
Granted, we've never been to Philly, which I here is pretty rough. No plans to go there ever.
