Let's Go Crew! (thanks Deadspin)
Usually when I post a link about fighting in Ohio, it involves Youngstown. Not this time, however:

That's right, it's the fightin...Columbusites? Columbians? Columbusts? I grew up there and I have no idea what "we" should be called. Those of you who have been to a Crew game probably know the "hooligans" that are involved here. We used to buy tickets for the South end of the stadium because they were cheaper, then walk over and sit on the North side behind these guys while they led tasteful chants for Dante Washington like:

"He's big! He's black! He leads the Crew attack! Dantaaaaay! Dantaaaaay!"

This was when I was in high school, before the Blue Jackets arrived. At that time soccer was the only professional game in town, and these 100 guys were the biggest Crew fans there were. They all have towels with their names and a specific number on them. I'm guessing it some kind of fan power ranking or something. Who knows? I hope they still have "Buck a Brat" night at the Crew Stadium, though.

No matter what, the British will think twice before they come back to Central Ohio.
