I am a quiet fan, usually very quiet. I do not need all the extras associated with the game. Fancy stadiums, big bands, and tasty food is nice, but I'll be okay with out all that. At home games I listen to the game on the radio and am content just watching the game. I don't need to stand, jump up and down, or yell. I love talking about the game and I usually keep the ignorant fans around me clued in on what is going on.

I show up one hour early to set up our tunnel. I don't sit down the whole game. If you fear for your safety, don't sit next to me and my friends. This includes your ear drums. We have been known to knock each other and/or loved ones down with all the high fives going around. We are usually some of the very last ones to leave the field/stadium after the game. I know each and every player personally.

Yup, I'm a normal texas high school football fanatic!

I stand up the entire game on the 50 yard line, yell to the players, yell at the refs, and just be loud. Good times.

Me and you,:thumbsup: but we don't have a blow up tunnel. We do have a smoke machine and victory line.

I am pretty vocal and stand most of the time. I have always been a huge Gobbler fan having been born, raised, and played here. I have two boys who bleed green just like me! :)

It depends if I've got a son on the team or not. I'm always loud, regardless, and always have the cowbell(s) going. If my son is on the field, I'm just a little louder. :D

I don't care about stadiums as long as I can see. And I only sit down during time-outs or part of half-time.

Ditto.

Loud. Cowbell. Stand up.

I arrive at the games 2 hours before kickoff.
I never root for either team playing.
I am one of the last to leave the field.
I could not care less who wins.
I seldom see the same team play twice in one season.

i attended every game in high school (i was in the band!) now i try to make any game i can (between texas games and cuero games, i stay busy), and alternate standing or sitting, but i do stand up and yell,even though i'm no longer a student, i sit in the student section, even though we have reserve seats, just because some times its a little more lively :)

I've been there during the good times and not so good times. I attended all the games in high school (44 wins in a row) I think I've only missed 2 games in at least 18 - 20 years - game against West Oso in 2004 (My grandmothers 99th birthday) scrimmage against La Grange in 2006 - (my Grandmother's funeral)..... I've had a son in a Gobbler uniform since 1988 - this is the last year to watch one of my son's play. Bitter-sweet year for me. But I will be there next year cheering on the Gobblers :)

I am a LIVID fan. lol I am told I am very intesnse when the Ags play. It takes a very special person to watch the games with me when they are on tv and be able to enjoy it. lol I yell and scream and do anything it takes to get everyone around me to get into the game and be loud.

I am an intense fan. I find myself getting too caught up in the game. I usually stand most of the time. Is a good thing I am friends with those I sit with as I am also a "toucher" fan. Enjoy giving a high-five or lightly hitting someone's arm or shoulder when we score or make a good play.

i am a fan that regrets not playing, which has probably led to me to becoming an Umpire

I'm a fan that is not bias asside from UT but i'm not that bias towards them. If I see my team does not have a chance I'll express my opinion.
