“Michigan on the 24th was I think head and shoulders probably the worst [game] in recent years in terms of feedback from visitors,” University of Wisconsin spokesperson John Lucas said.
Selected feedback, in the form of five previously private e-mails to UW administrators, was made public at a press conference Wednesday as the university seemingly attempted to come clean about alcohol abuse within its student body.
“I have attended games at nearly every Big Ten stadium and can categorically state that Madison is the worst,” Michigan fan Mark Jacob Thomas, who reported having hot cocoa and bratwursts thrown at him at past Badger games, said in an e-mail to UW Chancellor John Wiley. “Iowa fans are nuts and Ohio State fans are hostile, but at Wisconsin, the students are drunk beyond comprehension and incredibly abusive verbally and physically."
I'm sure the disappointment of losing so dramatically had nothing to do with the motivation to email in a complaint about the Badger fans.

Naw, the Suckvarines have enough Big Stinky Losses on their plate to blame Badger Boozing for anything! If they had one one loss, well, then, yes, there's clearly a Badger cry for help admist the swilling of flat Warsteiners...
Here I am, live, commenting from the epicenter of The Whore of Arbolon itself, the Shaky Jake of commenters.
I lived for over 20 years in the Detroit area.
Did you know that the University of Michigan has never lost a fairly-refereed football or basketball game in its entire history? If you ever lived in the Detroit area, you'd have known that.
Did you know that, alone of all colleges in the United States, Michigan is the target of a deliberate animus that results in it always getting ranked lower than it deserves, even counting referee-caused losses as if they were genuine? If you ever lived in the Detroit area, you'd have known that.
Living in Champaign and hundreds of miles away from Madison, I can likewise verify that Ann Arbor is, in fact, a whore.
At least that's what word on the street is. Shhhh.
Re "Wisconsin's student section had the lamest chant I've heard--"Eat S***, F*** You""
My college cheer was
E to the X dee y dee X
E to the X dee X
Secant tangent cosine sine
Three point one four one five nine
Pi - I - Cube root of Three
Fightem Fightem I I T
Obviously the level of education in the basic sciences has fallen badly in the 40 years since I attended.
Man, that's lame.
One thing I have noticed since I moved to the South is that the football cheers are far more poetic down here, and contain a fin de siecle whimsy totally absent from big-time Yanqui cheers.
Exempli gratii:
"Hotty toddy Gosh almighty who the hell are we?
Flim flam, bim bam, Ole Miss, by damn!"
and
"Rammer Jammer Yellowhammer
Go to Hell, Alabama!"
and my personal favorite:
"Go to Hell, LSU!" (which the Ole Miss student section would yell out at every home game, regardless of who we were playing)
Good times.
Another thing, is that no one down here knows the ref-cussing cheers that are a standard of Big Least college ball that I learned in the Georgetown band. In fact, I get told to shut up when I yell the following:
"The ref beats his wife!"
or
"I'm blind, I'm deaf, I wanna be a ref!"
Frank, there are now at least a dozen readers of Althouse who want to bear your children.

GO BLUE!
"Wisconsin's student section had the lamest chant I've heard--"Eat S***, F*** You"."
I wouldn't really call that a cheer. We say it back and forth between different student sections. It's usually the people in section "O" saying Eat S*** and the people in Section "N" or "P" replying with F*** You. It's not directed at the other team. There are tons of other chants and things directed from one section to another. They're fun.
"I've been to about 10 different Division 1 College Football stadiums. Wisconsin's student section had the lamest chant I've heard--"Eat S***, F*** You". This went on for a pretty long time. It didn't seem to be necessarily directed at the game or the opposing team. I also could hear this chanted in the background on an ESPN game broadcast from Madison about 2 years ago."
Section O at Camp Randall is in the student section. This chant begins with the students holding their arms over their head as to make an O over their head. They sing the beginning of Swingtown by Steve Miller. At one point everyone not in section O points to section O and says "SUCKS". Everyone in section O points to the left and says "F*CK YOU". Everyone else replies "EAT SH!T then arms go back over the head and they resume Swingtown.
referring to the comment Iowa fans are "Nuts and Ohio State fans are "Hostile": I hope you are not implying that Michigan fans are far more superior than fans from other schools. I believe that all schools have their fair share of misbehaving fans. I actually had a michigan fan spit on me at a tailgating party in columbus one year. Yes, He was drunk and disorderly and was later arrested and placed in jail. Just be careful when pointing fingers because when you do you will always have 3 pointing back at you. GO BUCKS!!!!
Ann arbor definitely puts out.
GO BUCKS! MUCK FICHIGAN!
