A guy dressed in Ute gear told me to throw my Y hat away before I desecrated a sacred spot. He did not say it in a light-hearted tone. It took me a moment to shrug it off and not let effect an otherwise great experience.

Legoland is fantastic for small children

Those is the perfect ages. Once they hit 11, it becomes less fun for them.

What’s with idiot yewt fans that feel compelled to yell something stupid to a BYU fan, that is also a complete stranger?

Remember most yewt “fans” are nothing more than BYU haters.

Great question! Yewt fans are the ONLY people that have ever done this to me

Don't make fun of the dude. He's got a high end Ute-Grad Career.

In that context, I would have just chuckled and asked what his major was at Yew and what year he graduated
