Utah fan currently living in Minny, right by UMN campus. It’s a temporary stay before I move onto the next spot to finish my training, but gotta say me and the fam LOVE it out here. I used to think Utahns were active/healthy, but y’all take it to a whole other level out here. People are so nice, and it is so kid friendly out here.
Bought a Vikings hat (which I lost somewhere, sucks). And bought the family UMN gear given how much we have enjoyed our brief time out here.
Don’t mind the people on CB - haha I come to laugh at their delusional takes when I am bored at work and also because you completely nailed it: they are obsessed about Utah teams and talk about us non-stop. Basically like teenage girls. They also think BYU is the center of the sports world and people actually care about BYU nationally. I’m realistic, and given all the moving around I can definitely say, nationally very few people care or are even aware that Utah or BYU exists.
CBers do know us so well though - I can confirm 90% of us really do have goatees, worship the devil, and work at a gas station or the pizza hut.
If you get a chance, catch a game at Rice Eccles. That place is popping and so dang loud during a big game.
Now I am obligated to say something nice about our rival and the people on this site: they really are passionate about their sports team. I do think that is a cool thing.
