TO Halfwayt... Nope cause if I was lucky enpough to be able to pay 4X the face value to actually get into a bears game I def. wouldn't leave!! LOL. I did have to work in the morning... but I stayed.. I guess I don't get out enough, it was my first falcons game and I was dissappointed in the playing, and the fan base.

I would say they are decent fans if they even attended any Falcons games this year, knowing there was not even potential to make a playoff spot right from the start. They can't get three TD's in a game, let alone the fourth quarter, to make it worth staying

So you're saying that if you were at a Bears game and they are losing 31-10 and it's 12AM and you have to go to work the next morning and you live 30 miles outside the city and have to drive home you're gonna hang out? Sure you are. You must be under 21, a Real Estate Agent, or really drunk.

Fair weather fans are pretty much in every city with a few exceptions. I can recall an incident a few years back where steelers were getting beat down in a playoff game, the fans all headed for the doors at halftime, and they started to come back and all the fans decided they wanted back in, and the dumbass people who do the tickets agreed to it, I say screw that, if you cant stick around to see them losing, why should you be allowed back in when they start to win?

It could be worse. I live in the Philadelphia area, those Eagles "fans" would've just stayed and booed. They bail on their team every year, win or lose.
On the other hand, I didn't mind the Falcons fans clearing out because it meant my boys could hear themselves congratulate each other over their 4 game win streak.

They were trying to beat the downtown traffic! Have you ever been in Atlanta traffic? It's terrible.
You are right though it is pretty sad . If they are your team stick with 'em till the end.

They realized their season ticket="Vick-money" was a waste.
They realized, damn,I got a job to go to in the morning THIS is a waste of time.
They realized they got "rid" of the only real QB they had,Shaub.
No one was playing "Who let the DOGS out ?"

Yep, those racists won't be happy until they have their black QB standing behind center. Why do you think they kept starting the lousy Vick instead of Matt Shaub?

Atlanta blows, the real sports towns are places like Philly, NYC, DC, Boston, Pitt, and Chicago.
