I'm a Utah fan

And I get F-ing Mormon yelled at me at opposing venues.

And those teams also have LDS fans too.

Trust me, if you think the main identity of Utah is hating the church, your completely off base.

I'm not saying that there isn't a strong Anti-Mormon sentiment if a portion of the Utah fan base, but to say it's the main identity is just ridiculous, and arrogant.

Oh yeah, I got flipped off at the BYU Utah football game this year and I was with my boys, 8 and 6, and Stake President Brother.
