'Watch the game somewhere else': March Madness watch party gets cut short when overly-passionate basketball fan goes feral and kicks out his buddy's girlfriend for supporting the wrong team


Everyone gets fired up over March Madness. In a world where sports outcomes can be fairly predictable, college basketball championships combine high pressure gameplay and decision-making skills, with the hotheaded nature of 20-year-old giants who are flooded with testosterone. What could possibly go wrong? 
Fortunately for fans, things go wrong ALL the time, so March Madness season is a time of year where underdogs have a chance, bets are high, and people are drunk enough that they'd be willing to jeopardize friendships for the sake of their team. Some fans are so feral that they lose sight of the rules of sportsmanship. One Redditor went completely feral and burned a bridge with a lifelong friend over the stupidest thing ever: a jersey.

u/Afraid_Honeydew_9163 was a huge NCAA basketball fan and he was thrilled that his college team finally made it to the final 16 during March Madness. He decided to throw a huge watch party with all of his alumni friends and encouraged them to invite more people over to enjoy the team's success (or to wallow in the sorrows of loss). Apparently everyone was welcome until one of his college buddies brought over his new girlfriend, who had gone to the school of the team that they were playing agains. Uh oh.

Naturally, being proud of the school she graduated from, she wore a jersey supporting the opposing team and the host of the party lost his marbles and almost immediately kicked them out of the house. Chaos ensued as the girlfriend and his buddy got booted out of the house. Insulted, they thought their friend was TA for kicking them out of the party, what do you think?
