I think your last word should say Jazz.(?)
Ute fans swear they are the least racist people around, progressive, etc.
It's like the spiderman meme, everyone pointing the finger at the other jazz fan.
At any rate, I know some byu people from in-between springville and payson who might not be above saying something dumb during an nba game and same goes for a lot of native Utahn ute fans from various areas of the state. (My job has required me to be in the homes of A LOT of people all around the state.) I think we think that because we ourselves and our circle of ~200 people we associate with and others like them would never say anything dumb, that no one in our demographic would. But they do.
I also think the reputation jazz games have, is exaggerated and is due mostly to the past and assumptions based on various factors that I don't have time to type about.
