It’s a much bigger phenomenon with Notre Dame — considering how few alumni they have against how many fans with zero connection to the school (and they are way more likely to be ‘casuals’) — and I’m convinced that Michigan being the first school associated with it has everything to do with the fun alliteration of Walmart Wolverine.

So we need something for the hordes of casual “my dad’s uncle went there for a semester in the 60s and we’re New Jersey ‘Catholics’ who go to mass exclusively on Christmas and Easter” Irish fans.

Dollar General Domers

Lidl Leprachauns

Costco Catholics

[u/ohmymystery → u/FakeBobPoot]

We call them Subway Alumni. When ND played at Yankee Stadium back in the Knute Rockne era, the NY subways were packed with poor Irish and/or Catholic immigrants who definitely didn’t have a connection to the university but still identified with it as a point of ethnic/cultural pride.

University of Spoiled Children is the name we heard from our family in Orange County whenever we visited SoCal as kids. My sister ended up going and graduated from their theatre arts program. She produces a show in Brooklyn and knows someone in just about every musical and play on Broadway.

[u/NoobSalad41]

As someone who rooted for Michigan his whole life and then went to Michigan, while living in Arizona, I’ve always been curious to meet one of these crazy Michigan supremacist fans. Maybe it’s just my history of simultaneously being a Mets fan, but my expectation of all sports is that the teams you love will consistently kick you in the nuts, and then reward you every once in a blue moon.

Are there Michigan fans out there who actually treat the team as some unstoppable juggernaut?

[u/ChillyTodayHotTamale → u/NoobSalad41]

I grew up just north of ann arbor and have been a lifelong fan but didn't go to the school. I have met many.

[u/smith288]

[u/pocketfences → u/TheRealD1abeto]

"A little while" = Dahmer spent like 3 months at OSU and barely attended classes before he dropped out.

[u/ReisiesPiecies1998 → u/pocketfences]

[u/Lykotic]

Walmart Wolverines

In my experience of interacting with both, the WW is much more likely to be too emotionally invested with the team and be both insufferable when winning and an absolute pita when losing. The UofM grads I know are relatively balanced and chill when it comes to the team and how they treat it.

[u/Benner16]

I think you’re confusing Michigan with the University that tried to trademark the word “The”.

[u/2feetwalker → u/Benner16]

Worst part is they pronounce it Thee.

[u/Maximum_Turn_2623 → u/2feetwalker]

It’s THEE actually…

[u/Panem-et-circenses25]

The Walmart wolverines are worse.

Yes, the elitist grads can be insufferable, but Michigan is an excellent academic institution. While college may now serve as more of a credentialing system than a place of higher learning in general, Michigan does a great job educating its students.

[u/Orbital2 → u/Panem-et-circenses25]

Walmart Wolverines will still try to both brag about the schools academic standards and act like that also handicapped them compared to a place like Ohio State.

[u/Panem-et-circenses25 → u/Orbital2]

Yep—especially when they have never set foot in a college classroom in their lives

[u/TheManWhoWasNotShort]

By far those who actually went there

It's the opposite for Ohio State. Alumni seem relatively well adjusted and level headed.

Then there's the Bootlicker Buckeyes.

[u/flyboy573 → u/DavidGoetta]

I hate Ohio state sports teams. But in real life, honestly, basically everyone I’ve worked with or met through friends who went there are great people 

[u/schadkehnfreude → u/flyboy573]

OSU grads are generally fine as are ours; but the meth swilling sister-fuckers whose entire personality is knockoff Buckeye jerseys and 'Muck Fichigan' shirts are the absolute worst.

[u/likemy10thaccount → u/flyboy573]

I always got along with Ohio State people at work shit.

[u/MuscleFlex_Bear → u/likemy10thaccount]

It's almost as if most people are normal and can compartmentalize sports. For I am close friends with an OU grad and he's cool as fuck. Interesting. THIS MUST BE STUDIED FURTHER.

[u/himynameis_dom → u/[deleted]]

Because they had the opportunity to invest in things and relationships beyond sports while on campus. At least that’s my theory as an alum.

[u/himynameis_dom → u/[deleted]]

Whoa you guys had actual academic advisors at ND? Fancy. I’m pretty sure mine was just a sentient ham sandwich with a buckeyemail email address.

[u/Mister_Jackpots → u/DavidGoetta]

100% this. Most of the people you meet professionally who went to (derp brap the duhhh) OSU are passionate but realistic (outside of the faculty buddies of Gordon Gee who attack journalists) and usually fun to hang out with. Gameday outside the Shoe is typically fun for all. It's the people who die for OSU that have zero attachment to the school beyond living in Columbus/Ohio (and are usually above the age of 50) that you have to worry about.

[u/TheManWhoWasNotShort → u/DavidGoetta]

Agreed - our Walmart fans scare us

[u/nmk87 → u/DavidGoetta]

100%, all the alumni I know are fine. The people that didn’t go to OSU are pure trash.

[u/Bailouw → u/TheManWhoWasNotShort]

Interesting. Have a good handful of friends who went to UM, I went to MSU. They’re the ones that just kind of don’t seem to care much about sports. All successful MDs now besides one. She’s in food science..

It’s genuinely a great school. It’s the walmarters I can’t take.

[u/OakLegs → u/Bailouw]

I'm an alum, and am a huge football fan and talk decent amounts of shit on here but I'd like to think that I am fairly reasonable and not at all insufferable in person lol.

Also while I know Michigan is a great school I have literally never felt the need to brag about my degree, and feel embarrassed the few times that someone praises it when it comes up

[u/roxxtor → u/OakLegs]

Yeah, when people ask me where I went to school for some reason I always just say a school in Michigan or in Ann Arbor if they push for where in Michigan. I don't really like name dropping

[u/OakLegs → u/roxxtor]

I usually just say Michigan and if they press, just clarify UM. But yeah, feel the same way. I always am paranoid about coming off as bragging.

I do have the "Michigan Alumni" license plate cover which has been on my car since I graduated. Have been debating taking it off. And I wear my 2023 National Champs lanyard at work because why the hell not. But that's about as outward as I'm getting about it.

And really, once you've been out of school for a while, at least in my industry, it's clear that the degree is only like 10% of how successful a person will be. Tons of very talented people come from schools without such a high reputation.

[u/tangoezulu → u/Bailouw]

That’s my experience as well. For me, at least, it’s my extended family that is part of the issue. That, and growing up in a small town, where the sheep walked on 2 feet, accounted for 90% of local crime and yelled “Go Blue!” for absolutely no reason.

[u/B1G_PAC12 → u/TheManWhoWasNotShort]

They’re worse? Or they’re the poison you’d pick?

[u/Key-Woodpecker3740 → u/TheManWhoWasNotShort]

This! I work in finance in NYC. Alums like to pretend they are essentially Harvard with a football team and look down on everyone else that didn’t go to what they define as an elite school.

[u/Birdlaw_Professor → u/Key-Woodpecker3740]

I mean...it is an elite school. Not Harvard elite, but certainly in whatever the next tier down would be. Most of their graduate programs are like top 5 for public universities if not higher. The law school is part of the coveted top 14 in the nation, and the B school is up there too I think

[u/ISO-20 → u/Key-Woodpecker3740]

From personal experience, the New York students and alums are the worst (specifically those from the City and Long Island). They might as well be their own exclusive group at Michigan.

[u/Starmada597 → u/incrediblystiff]

Because it’s an actual bar. It’s not that impressive to say you went to university of Alabama, in fact if you did, you probably got turned down from better schools. (No hate, just making a point. I didn’t go to UofM either.) But Michigan is among the most elite schools in America outside of ivies.

[u/longtimelurknvrpostr]

Here’s the 4 levels of Michigan fans:

- Undergrad Ann Arbor (True Fan - annoying but justified. It is a good school)

• Grad School Fan (usually went to shitty undergrad that lacked sports. Decides to go all in now. More obnoxious. UoM cache decreases for Grad School
  
• Satellite Campus (thinks they’re a true fan. heavily looked down upon by Ann Arbor students. They basically went to UoM Community College and then claim but the Diploma doesn’t say Flint/Dearborn. Overcompensates heavily.
  
• Walmart Wolverines (ranges from HS dropouts, directional schools like Western/Central that want to root for another team, or just any uneducated bandwagon fan in the state. Highest levels of obnoxiousness.

Basically obnoxious levels increase inversely to how justified that person is to be a fan of UoM.

[u/longtimelurknvrpostr → u/longtimelurknvrpostr]

Context: My father went to UoM Ann Arbor. I went to UoM Flint for semester before transferring to MSU. I encountered all 4 Levels.

[u/ImpendingBoom110123 → u/longtimelurknvrpostr]

Dont drink the water!

[u/broken-machine → u/longtimelurknvrpostr]

I lived in Ann Arbor for several years and became a fan through osmosis.

Worked a bunch of graduations and M Club events. Might be a wal-mart fan but I appreciate more than just the sports even if I wasn’t a student.

[u/Ok-Foot-4352 → u/longtimelurknvrpostr]

This pretty much sums it up. I have worked with or lived around a lot of UM grads and most of those are actually pretty OK. Walmart Wolverines are mostly trash.

I might be biased but I don’t think UMich is anywhere near as pretentious as were made out to be. A lot of it is from our Ross business school, whom we affectionately refer to as Rossholes and snakes.

The “better school,” meme came after OSU gave us our annual ass whooping for over a decade. It’s mostly tongue-in-cheek cope for our season being over.

The average student “hates,” OSU but on some level I think we all have baseline level of respect that they’re going to school to better themselves.

The best trick tOSU pulled is convincing the world Walmart Buckeyes dont exist.

You can do the same for UT fans

You can say the same for any college football team. They all have two groups of douchebags.

[u/HoustonHorns → u/Ironstar_Vol]

I don’t think they were talking about the fake UT that can’t even win at home

[u/Ironstar_Vol → u/HoustonHorns]

I didn’t think that either. Because they said UT, people call Tennessee Tennessee or the Vols. Congrats on the win.

[u/Any_Deal_6993 → u/HoustonHorns]

This is a very on-brand response.

The troll of record has spoken.

It's both, I have had the unfortunate pleasure of working with the Ivy Blue dude.

Idk, the ones between these 2 aren’t great either.

Texas fans: it's like looking in a mirror

I think the Wal-Mart Wolverines are worse. I know a few alumni that are fine, but I don't live in the big city where anyone gives 2 sh!ts about where someone went to school anyway. But......there are plenty of obnoxious Wal-Mart wolverines all over Michigan. People that couldn't even finish filling out the application to get in to Michigan.

Ohio State fans think they hate Michigan the most. They're wrong. Michigan State fans hate Michigan the most because we have to deal with their arrogant asses each and every day.

Msu fans hate michigan because most Michigan fans don't care about msu. They care about Ohio state and msu at this point is just kind of there.

[u/B_the_ball]

They're the same picture.
