It was a mistake to disparage a local team, whether he’s a good guy or not

You can go to any city in America and open a restaurant and it would probably be a bad idea to make fun of the local team and fans on social media. That’s the entirety of my point. It just wasn’t smart.

So if I understand twitter correctly today, Utah fans are mad that a U alum, from the south, made a joke that Utah

Charlotte Rose Carlina BBQ in Midvale - I'd go today if I lived in Utah.

It’s a trap

You know, if they wanted their team to be taken more seriously and not made fun of so much, they could try

They would have shown up if Rising were there.

ochobeeguy

3/11/22 12:51pm

Their stadium is larger/nicer when Rising plays as well, though even he can’t help the west concourse latrine issue.

Utah fans show up for football but not basketball. Hence Curtain Center.

It isn't like we had a lot of fans show up for our game against an FCS opponent. I mean look at this picture below.

Seems like a good chance for Byu fans to descend on the restaurant

Time for a CB lunch.

BBQ for lunch? Well, only if I have to

Would be awesome if a bunch of BYU fans showed up at his restaurant today.

Here's the actual comment that bothered them

krindorr

3/11/22 1:15pm

Is any of that inaccurate? Clearly not a joke. Just dropping truth.

BYUtka

3/11/22 1:22pm

There's some truth to it for sure

krindorr

"Fans don't seem to know much about football" sums up all of the Pac12.

CougarBoard has NEVER EVER overreacted to a negative comment! How dare you

krindorr

Yeah but in this case it's true.

tony

3/11/22 10:16pm

How has twitter not censored that and deleted his account! I need a cry closet.

Y05

3/11/22 5:54pm

All of that is true. Apparently Ute fans take the truth to be hard.

slatecoug

3/13/22 5:31pm

The guy’s post on Twitter came from his business account and was idiotic

Medute

3/11/22 12:27pm

This seems more like a *the truth hurts* situations for the Yewts. They are just

BYUtka

3/11/22 12:35pm

“The truth” is not at all what he said so no, you are incorrect

Medute

3/11/22 12:44pm

Am I? Seemed pretty accurate from what I heard.

BYUtka

3/11/22 1:00pm

Sounds like you heard wrong. It was dumb smack talk, nothing more

Medute

3/11/22 1:48pm

Nope. Just saw the actual comment. It is spot on. This is a "truth hurts" sitch.

BYUtka

3/11/22 1:49pm

False smack talk, nothing more

Medute

3/11/22 2:57pm

I mean by SEC standards, Utah isn't relevant or a big fanbase

krindorr

3/11/22 3:41pm

That’s not what he said. It’s silly to argue things he didn’t say

Medute

3/11/22 4:11pm

No disagreement there

thank you for your thoughts on the subject, napoleon.

Wow, a ute fan defending Ute twitter. How quaint.

ochobeeguy

3/11/22 12:53pm

If byu fans did the same thing to BamBams, you would have a different tune

sidsie716

3/11/22 12:57pm

Nope, if a restaurant in Provo smack talked BYU on Twitter, I would laugh

Medute

3/11/22 1:51pm

And you would say BYU fans are being over sensitive like Utah fans are being

cougaman

3/11/22 6:07pm

Actually, I wouldn’t. I have a long history here of stating I ignore Twitter

Medute

3/11/22 6:11pm

Why aren't you just ignoring this then?

cougaman

3/11/22 6:17pm

I’m sorry, I thought this was a message board where we discuss things

Medute

3/11/22 6:32pm

I don't dislike your replies, but if the situation was reversed and we were

cougaman

3/11/22 7:05pm

It’s impossible to prove to you how I would respond in a hypothetical

Medute

3/11/22 11:09pm

It would be different if it were true as it is in this case.

slatecoug

3/13/22 5:34pm

Stupid? I guess it's all relative, some would say it was an extremely smart thing to do.

Tesla Coug

3/11/22 12:59pm

I am guessing I'm not the only person who never heard of them before today, but

BYUtka

3/11/22 1:02pm

I've heard of them. Never been there though. I need to change that.

Tesla Coug

3/11/22 1:14pm

None of the Utes threatening boycott have been there, or would have anyway.

ochobeeguy

3/11/22 1:17pm

Exactly.

Bluedarts

3/11/22 1:23pm

Both can be true, it can be an overreaction and a dumb thing to do

krindorr

3/11/22 1:06pm

Except that his business isn't right off of campus. He'll be fine.

Bluedarts

3/11/22 1:25pm

5 miles from the stadium, but don't know Provo/Orem restaurants well enough

krindorr

3/11/22 1:31pm

Yeah, something that doesn't have an association with BYU to begin with. My

Bluedarts

3/11/22 1:38pm

You won’t see anywhere in my post any thoughts on what Ute fans are doing

Medute

3/11/22 1:56pm

Oh the horror! I hope your poor fanbase recovers and that this guy goes out of

When did 12 angry utes get a 13th member of the group?

OlanchoCoug

I know the owner really well. He is hilarious, and as straight a shooter as you'll ever hear. Very likable guy.

Bob Vance

3/11/22 2:25pm

Wait, now I'm super confused....

krindorr

3/11/22 3:37pm

He said he went to Utah. Never said he was a fan.

kccougar

3/13/22 8:13pm

Definitely did say he was a fan

krindorr

3/13/22 9:04pm

Utah fans are self-appointed sheriffs of accountability that everybody needs

crack

3/11/22 2:58pm

Ute fans can’t do lame onside kicks to keep people accountable, so Twitter is all they’ve got.

Yllage Vidiot

Very insecure fanbase to be sure.
