This is so true. Paul James enjoyed the rivalry
With yewt fans. There was no malice at all between him and the students at yewta who would prank his house.

This is an excerpt from a story that was done a few years ago. Paul James is/was all class.

It started with toilet paper, but in subsequent years broadcaster Paul James would arise on game day to find wrecked cars and tires, even a missile in his front yard, always painted red and covered with anti-Brigham Young University epithets.

Finally, University of Utah fans began depositing actual toilets at James' home the night before the big football game between the University of Utah and BYU. Utah fans had marked James as a traitor for abandoning the Ute mic in 1967 to become the "Voice of the Cougars," and wanted to make sure he paid.

"Every year they had something new," James recalls in a new documentary about Utah's legendary football rivalry. "It was the unique feature of the Utah-BYU game because I know I'm going to get trashed."
