Erin Here's what I don't get -- he heard the scrotum tear. In a bar, with a rabid Oklahoma fan screaming at him.

... BULLET BULLET BULLET: “Thomas hit the other man several times before several bar patrons intervened, but Thomas said Beckett didn’t let go until Thomas heard his scrotum tear and blood ran down his leg.” Oklahoma 2, Texas, um, 1 or so? ...
Texas Longhorns, Oklahoma Sooners Rivalry Moves Straight to the Top; Fan Nearly Loses Scrotum
Published 8/23/2007 at FanIQ Blog
... The Red River Shootout just went straight to the top. An Oklahoma fan has been charged with assault for attacking a man who wore a Longhorns t-shirt into a bar. That probably happens a lot, you're thinking. Two guys cheering for rivals get into a silly fight drunk at a bar. ...

THE BIG TWELVE IS DISTURBING
Published 8/23/2007 at With Leather
... The latest example of college football insanity comes from Allen Beckett, a 53-year-old Oklahoma fan who allegedly assaulted Texas fan Brian Thomas in an Oklahoma City bar because Thomas was wearing a Longhorns shirt. Begin seat-shifting / cringe- and whimper-inducing details... now: ...
Shall He Be Raped?
Published 8/24/2007 by Simon at EPIC CARNIVAL | SPORTS NEWS WITH A TWIST
... This week a news story passed through the blogosphere that made me cringe like no other. One man just simply decided to rip another guys scrotum off his body cause he was wearing the wrong t-shirt. Simply wearing a Texas t-shirt in Oklahoma got one guys nuts ripped off and resulted in 60 stitches. That is a lot of friggin stitches and the story is quite possibly the most painful piece I have ever read. The man's name is Allan Michael Beckett, he's obviously complete scum and he should be coming to a prison near you in the fall. ...
Oklahoma Wins The Award For Most Insane Fans
Published 8/24/2007 by Marco at Just Call Me Juice
... I've always wondered what college football fanbase is the most insane and unreasonable of the bunch. Trust me, there are plenty of candidates for this. Through some close encounters, I've always thought that Oklahoma, Ohio State and Alabama were all close to the top. Well, that contest is over in my mind. Oklahoma wins, hand down. The Sooner faithful take the crown after an OU fan was accused of tearing the scrotum of a Texas fan at a bar just because the man was wearing a Texas shirt. (stop reading if you are eating right now). ...
Mi Manifesto

... I believe all sports fans should be able to go to pro or college games and not have to fork over $50 a pop. Even $25. Unfortunately, paying Kobe Bryant requires $10 only in the nosebleed section on game day and/or on college night. In the spirit of sportsmanship, I also believe every fan should be free to wear his or her team of choice without threat of violence or having their scrotum ripped open. Not having a scrotum, I don’t know how that would feel but nevertheless, no man should endure this pain because of his love for his team. Finally, I will admit to watching ...
Yankees Fans Sure Hate Red Sox Fans
Published 5/5/2008 by Larry Brown at Larry Brown Sports
... I suppose when you’re BAC’s as high as Ian Kennedy’s ERA you’re banking on other drunks to get out of the way of a high speed vehicle. Probably not the best way to scare someone. Usually we like to stick with cutting the scrotum of opposing team’s fans — that’s much more civil. I knew Yanks fans and Red Sox fans didn’t like each other, but come on people, be more reasonable here. ...

Hey....umm....Jason.....can you make sure stories about tearing scrotums NEVER make the front page of Ballhype again? Thanks.
