So I grew up in the bay area and I watched ALL three Raider Suoerbowl victoies in real time (live) on a 13 inch Sony TV
I also watched Montana and Young kick ass in SF for decades…and it was great football.
I love the Raiders…and all of our Raider Nation 4 ever
/
Here’s my point.
The vast majority of fans, of eifher team, that I meet, will ruthlessly talk shit about the other team
//
WHY ?
AFC/NFC
They have ONLY faced each other 15 times and have Never played in a Superbowl matchup
anyways … Donkeys suck D****y Dk
Idk but majority of my friends and family are niner fans and they talk the most shit out of all other fans
I agree 💯! If they were to ever face off In the Super Bowl though FUCK the niners!
We used to say the Niners crowd was the Brie and Chardonnay crowd. Back when both games were on, and you could only watch one, the Raiders were on.
Wine drinkers versus beer and whiskey drinkers.
“Wine and cheese” crowd is what my mom always said
The last 49ers game I went to, some white bitch spilled her chardonnay on me. Not joking.
Fans outside of Cali don’t care, we just sit quietly from afar and watch the discourse
Bragging rights.
One word, Al.
He loathed the niners. “I don’t care about anything else, just beat the niners.” ~Al Davis back in the 70’s …
I’m not from California nor ever been there so no hate from me lol
It’s apparently a Bay Area thing. I’m from the East Coast so I never fully understood it.
Because you don’t understand the nuance of the Bay Area. There are rich and poor places on both sides of the Bay, but in general, SF is wealthier and the peninsula where candlestick was has a shit ton of money. Oakland was more known as a large suburban city riddled with violent crime and gangs and the surrounding smaller suburbs like San Leandro and Hayward the same. So you could live 20-30 miles further east in the more conventional suburb and be a Raider fan and your neighbor in the same neighborhood a Niner fan and that Niner fan would think they were better than you simply because of the team they rooted for. It was obvious and it was made obvious by Niner fans. Shit rubbed us wrong. Then, you throw in their success and gloating and it just made you hate that team. I still hate them. I love watching them be so good but an able to finish the deal. It’s cathartic.
It’s probably very similar to how White Sox fans feel toward Cubs fans.
I went to middle school with both fan bases. Middle schoolers could be very mean and petty.
Oh, I get that. I’m a Red Sox fan and there are a lot of Yankee fans in MA. So, the rivalry in the 90s/2000s was REAL lol.
It was fan driven by locals. 49er fans always had this dumb notion that they were the “good guys” (I’ve seen enough niner on niner fights to disprove that) and Raiders fans were all criminals so fuck the 49ers.
All I’m saying is “Bang Bang NiNeR Gang” might be the stupidest thing I’ve ever heard.
Yessss. Thank you E-40 for making that the highlight and ender for many of my unsufferable Whiner family members. When they start talking shit about us and since we suck right now I have no real comeback but I can end any conversation with “Hey…bang bang Niner gang though” and everyone cracks the fuck up at them for that weak ass shit. Fuck the Whiners.
Exactly…
The official team of XIV.
Fly Eagles fly is also really stupid but you’re right. Bang bang niner gang is the pinnacle of stupid sayings
Some softass shit ngl😂😂😂
It’s simple. If you are an Oakland Raider fan, it’s a bay area rivalry. If you are an LA Raider fan, we hate everything about northern California teams. If you are a Las Vegas Raider fan, it doesn’t make sense.
Fuck California?
Fuck the rainbow team
Hate the division rivals, but when the chiefs and niners were in the super bowl I didn’t mind the chiefs Winning solely because I personally don’t know any chiefs fans and instead am constantly surrounded by clueless/insufferable/“ungrateful” 49er fans here in the Bay Area. Fuck the niners
I rooted so hard for the Chiefs to win. It disgusts me to say that.
I was personally rooting for meteor in that one.
I didn’t root for either, just so long as the WHINERS didn’t win another SB, but hoped that a natural disaster would’ve happened in NOLA.
In LA when I was a kid and Raiders were there it was common white/POC folks all got along for 4 hours. Rams were for the rich folk.
I live in SJ where it’a a mix of Raider/49er fans.
the Raiders 49ers feud died when the 49ers moved to Santa Clara. There used to be more back & forth, but its been dead for awhile.
there’s just something about playing in Levis stadium that doesn’t seem like old 49ers we used to loathe. whether they win or lose.
