From almost the moment the Spurs arrived in South Texas as an ABA team a half-century ago, they were known for housing some of the most rambunctious, unwelcoming fans in the league. In the 1970s, the “Bums” pelted then-Denver coach Larry Brown with avocados. In the 1980s they scuffled with Larry Bird after a game, prompting the Celtics legend to swing a duffel bag at them in what he claimed was self-defense.

Once, after the Bums heckled Kareem Abdul-Jabbar following a fire at his house, the Los Angeles Times called that segment of Spurs fans, “loud, doggedly persistent, and at times utterly tasteless.”
