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

    All I’m saying is “Bang Bang NiNeR Gang” might be the stupidest thing I’ve ever heard.

    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.

    It’s apparently a Bay Area thing. I’m from the East Coast so I never fully understood it.

      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.

    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.

    Bay Area local thing, although I live more in the central coast, the niner culture is definitely strong and hostile here. To be honest it doesn’t seem the same to me as we moved away but niner fans are as annoying as KC fans so the hatred still lives on at times when I just wanna move on from it lol

    It was always about the fact that 49ers fans were douchebags of the highest order. I took a certain pride in watching them lose when it counted. Also, doesn’t help that Montana took a title and about $3.5 million in endorsements (in early 1989 $$$) away from my uncle, Ickey Woods.

    “That was until 2011, when the actions of fans crossed a line that not only brought the 49ers-Raiders preseason series to an immediate halt, but also eliminated it for the foreseeable future. On Aug. 20 of that year, there were three standout incidents of violence at Candlestick Park, the Niners’ home stadium until 2013. One man was beaten unconscious in an upper-level bathroom, another was shot several times in the stomach and a third victim was shot in the face in a separate shooting”

    I grew up in the Bay Area, born in Alameda. Worked in SF for over a decade listening to all the 49er fans. I think it’s just a location rivalry. SF has always been jealous of the East Bay so they can’t help themselves lol.
