ESPN Guide to Psychotic Fan Behavior Reviews

  • Andrew

    This book is pretty much exactly what you would expect: crude humor, sarcasm, and obscure sports references. For the sports fan that has a sense of humor it is a light, fun read. It features instructions on "How to Fight a Mascot", "Streaking Etiquette", plus helpful tips for avoiding the spouse when you want to watch the game and the proper way to burn a couch (every WVU fan's favorite). This book is a definite weekend afternoon (during the offseason of course) or perfect to keep by the toilet.

  • Joel

    Mildly amusing with a few moments of true hilariousness. It was good for a quick, light, "don't have to think" kind of read. I read about half of it while sitting in an airport and it helped pass the time well.

  • Christian

    Very funny - heavy on the sarcasm. The stories about the top 10 psycho fans were disturbing and will make excellent content for a class some time.
