I found a fan base WAY more obnoxious than the Iowa Hawkeye fans

New York Rangers fans. Worst I’ve ever been around.

New hockey fan here. We went to several Carolina Hurricanes playoff games in 2023. This was our first experience with going to NHL games in person. It was an amazing experience and we decided to purchase season tickets.

Great and very fun season this year. We probably sold about half our tickets but went to around 20 games. I’ll be the first to admit that me and my wife are still learning the game but we have become big Hurricane fans.

They are playing the Rangers this postseason and the amount of vitriol hate and obnoxiousness we’ve experienced from these people has made me put them above Hawkeye fan.

Nope - not possible.

I thought so too but, damn these people changed my opinion. It’s close though

It’s just every Original 6 team that is like that.

Dordt Defenders. Those a-hole fans take the cake. Arrogant jerks.

Hockey fans are a different breed of fans. Hard to compare them to Hok fans. Hockey fans are very passionate and dialed in folks. Hok fans are truly obnoxious and generally not the brightest.

The worst fans (from what I have heard) are Philly Eagles fans.

At least I would venture to believe obnoxious Ranger fans still understand the rules; meanwhile, I saw another tweet this past weekend from an Iowa fan who said “It still wasn’t a fair catch!”

If you are a visiting fan watching a NFL game in Philly, leave your team’s jersey or other team apparel at home. They’re not just obnoxious, they can be down right violent

That is what I heard, too. Never been to Philly before.

Easy to say from the east coast. Not so much here in ground central.

New York people are really loud, arrogant and petty. It's possible.

Not even just the Eagles, it's all Philly sports. Philadelphia sports fans might as well be a terrorist organization.

Man punched in the face, kicked in the head after Canes' win Saturday night

A man was punched in the face and kicked in the head Saturday night outside of PNC Arena. Witnesses said the attack happened after the Carolina Hurricanes' 4-3 win against the New York Rangers in Game 4 of the second round of the NHL playoffs.

I was at this game the other night. I exited the very same exit this took place in front of. Probably very shortly before this situation since we didn't see it. It was a very tense environment leaving the arena. I'm not surprised at this story and I'm not saying the Canes fan didn't say anything during the altercation but he had his ass knocked out by a Rangers fan.

I've said it for years but hardcore pro sports fans, especially the NFL, are a special breed of people.

About a month or so ago, I was walking past the arena in Denver prior to a Rangers-Avs game. Passed plenty of people in NYR jerseys but didn't see anyone acting up. Then all of a sudden, I hear some shouting from across the intersection. A small group of guys randomly in Islanders jerseys were shouting and talking **** at the Rangers fans. At a NYR away game far from NY.

Probably doesn't mean much to the OP, but it cracked me up.

Oh, I get it. Last series the Canes played the Islanders. They were obnoxious too but there were fewer of them. I can only imagine what a game in NY would look between the two

I'm guessing Knicks fanbase and Rangers fanbase are 90% the same people
