UMass - Elitist, Liberal, Sophisticated

(Amherst, Massachusetts) After the University of Massachusetts football team was defeated by Appalachian State 28-17 in the NCAA Div. 1 title game, about 1,800 students reacted with a display of their elitist liberal sophistication and sportsmanship in the streets of Amherst. They rioted.

Scores of police officers responded and were attacked with bottles, cans, rocks, trash cans and bicycles. A number of fires were started and windows were smashed. Two officers were injured.

Ten students were arrested for disorderly conduct and failure to disperse. Michael Gargano, vice chancellor for student affairs and campus life, said he was disappointed and he may discipline the offenders.

To some degree, drugs and alcohol are blamed. However, according to UMass spokesman Edward F. Blaguszewski, the rioting is really a national problem.

Show's over. Go home, folks. It's a national problem that UMass has idiots.
