That GSU guy attacked one of my oldest friends from when I joined the ESC in 2001, and that was complete fucking bullshit. That's not a baseless accusation, I was standing 10 feet from the perch where the guy attacked him. I've had no problem with GSU guys but I'd be lying if I said a lot of things they did didn't bother me. Bottom line is they only have themselves to blame for the ban, and hopefully they realise that and ask for (and receive) one last chance.
Not specifically referncing the Hartford mascot situation when I said baseless but fans of this club spout off about a united south ward, yet a silly mascot sitting in the capo stand interrupts communication between groups. Think it would be a good thing for the south ward to sort of rally around this situation. If you dont care for the type of support GSU brings, thats fine but agreeing with a ban makes no sense if you appreciate supporter culture
