I think part of my problem with the yewt fans is that there are usually only a few real over the top jerks, but in a crowd of yewts there's rarely anyone that tells the jerk to sit down and get a grip. They all just sit there in silent support, and I guess they feel like we deserved it because after all "you wore BYU gear, what did you expect?"
Allow me to offer my sincere apologies for the last time a BYU fan screamed the f-word at you for sporting yewt gear at a game, or threw their garbage at you, or flipped you off for it, and my apologies for the last time you got to view a cougar backside at a game. IMO it was entirely uncalled for and they're an embarrassment to the rest of us that try and be decent people.

Perhaps there's rare a Ute fan that will tell someone to quit hassling you because they feel you brought it on yourself. In all of your negative experiences with Ute fans, you are the common denominator.
When I see cretins treating any visiting fan poorly, I will step in and tell them to knock it off if they were unprovoked. But if the visiting fan does anything to provoke it, that visiting fan is on his/her own.
