""Basically the other teams' parents complain to the cops," Johnson said. "But what the cops have to understand and what people have to understand is that it's collegiate baseball. If you aren't ready to take a verbal onslaught, then you're not ready to play collegiate baseball.""

we need more fans like this guy

I'm really good friends with this kid and everything in that article is right on point. At first he's really obnoxious and you hate him, but after 5 minutes you can't help but like the guy. He's one of the funniest people I've ever met. If you ever get the chance - meet him and make him your friend.

Man, that was a great story. Langdon did a great job with it.

If you didn't see it in the actual paper, there was a baseball graphic inside with the jump for the story that included a bunch of the things he's said to other teams. Hilarious.

I like the fact that he keeps it clean and doesn't swear. You always hear about how our fans are vulgar and make asses of ourselves in front of kids and how "low class" we are.

This guy is doing what we all should do, if you want to hurl insults, great, but do your research! Know how to get in their heads with out making yourself look stupid!


WTG!

My favorite Reed quote is...

(in an attempt to pick up a girl) "Hey girl, I'm trying to get some stank on my hang-down."

4/13/2007 11:22:18 AM

that dude is unbelievably hilarious. It's worth going to the game anyway, but getting to hear what this kid says is awesome.

When they deserve it...absolutely.

man, last season some school (ga tech maybe) had a pitcher who wore really tight pants, and reed went to town on him. had me lawling good.

4/13/2007 12:24:51 PM

^^^what a jerk

4/13/2007 12:25:59 PM

i like to walk by reed at the games and grab his nipples

4/13/2007 12:28:02 PM

hahah sweet he got publicized for this... my favorite rant he screamed was to a short looking pitcher... he looks at the roster and says

"HEY PITCHER 6'1" in cleats? or cleats AND mound, cause theres NO WAY!"

""Basically, I want to get all of their information and dirt so I can use it against them," Johnson said. "We have their girlfriends' names. We have their Facebook groups. I don't ever curse at players or threaten them, and that's why it's OK. I might mention their mother or girlfriend, just so they know that I know. ""

That's a little bit creepy, really.

4/13/2007 1:05:43 PM

ha ha I wish I lived in Raleigh so I could see this guy in action.

4/13/2007 1:36:12 PM

reed is the man. "He will eat your soul"

4/13/2007 1:46:39 PM

^ oh yeah - and then ask you to "punch my fist!"

4/13/2007 1:49:13 PM

I played poker with that kid once. He didn't make it more than an hour without taking his shirt off.

4/13/2007 2:28:32 PM

I've been to a couple of games this year, and listening to him and everybody else has been fun. I've gotten into it a few times, too.

4/13/2007 3:24:09 PM

I love this guy. He represents everything good about heckling. Loud, funny, merciless, sometimes personal, and always clean. He's awesome.

It doesn't hurt that baseball is a game that's basically designed for hecklers. People yell stuff during hockey games, but it just ends up being white noise because everyone's so focused on the puck during play.

4/13/2007 3:29:08 PM

haha i loved at a game once last year when we got screwed hard two different times by tha blue that dude was like

"HEY BLUE, DOES YOUR WIFE KNOW YOUR SCREWING US!!!!!?"

and my fav

"GET OFF YOUR KNEES BLUE, YOUR BLOWING THE GAME!"

4/13/2007 5:14:21 PM

how clean

4/13/2007 5:55:38 PM

"In the third game of a series against William & Mary on Feb. 11, anonymous William & Mary fans distributed fliers on the seats of the stadium titled "Wolf Cries for Help." The flier went on to describe Johnson as "the cruelest member of that miserable group" and even called him a "rotund red headed kid" with "no manly attributes." It criticized the group members for calling themselves "Avent's Army," citing a lack of patriotism"

what

the

fuck?

OMG THE KISS ARMY IS UNPATRIOTIC

How is this kid not a t-dubber?

4/13/2007 9:29:24 PM

Lack of patriotism? Their nickname is the Tribe, and Indians were our sworn enemy until we killed/assimilated them all.

It's also named after a king and queen of England.

FUCKING TORIES

4/13/2007 10:49:55 PM

haha that kid went to my rival high school........he's a natural heckler.....it's great

4/13/2007 11:40:44 PM

A great heckler is worth his weight in gold behind an enemy's bench.
