All I'm gonna say is this.
If you don't think living in this state and being exposed to the constant negative barrage of anti-Auburn harangue doesn't impact fans you're a damn fool. Because you don't live in this state and you don't have the first damn clue how it is. It affects all of us whether we are fans of Auburn, Alabama, LSU, FSU, or whatever.
But I'll be glad to explain to you how things are in Texas or California or Nevada since I don't live there. I know all about it.
