So tonight was my second and final night of Halloween weekend. I danced up a storm at Kildare's, and then walked around for a bit on Main Street.

I was walking down the street, in my cowboy outfit, when a group of guys started hassling me about dressing up as a cowboy. The reason?

They thought I was a Cowboys fan, because I was dressed like a cowboy. Like, seriously, what the fuck? I know there's drunk logic, but seriously, what the fuck?

I kind of backed away, telling them I'm just a cowboy and not a Cowboys fan, and then they started on some guy who was actually wearing a Cowboys hat. They got pretty heated, throwing insults back and forth...like about how Romo's going to be out this season, and how this dude was a "fag" for wearing a Cowboys hat. They even knocked the guy's hat off his head.

It didn't get into a physical fight, but still...it's so fucking frustrating that people turn "fan wars" from light-hearted affairs into verbal and sometimes physical, heated fights. Like, why? Why do you think you're showing your loyalty to a team when you harass someone for being a fan of the rival team? There's a line between fun, light-hearted trashtalk (like when I joke about how I think the Cowboys need to have at least a 20-year Super Bowl drought to get really hungry for one, or when Adam jokes about how he hopes that the Eagles will never get a Super Bowl), and then downright nastiness, like what I witnessed tonight.

The sad thing is, I bet if I walked in Downtown Dallas wearing an Eagles jersey, after some big game where the Eagles won over the Cowboys, I wouldn't get shit. Maybe some trashtalk, but not verbal and physical intimidation.

I just fucking hate it sometimes that Philadelphia fans seem to think they need to be these badasses just to show their love for their team.
