Auburn trolled by Louisville fan prior to NCAA Tournament game: ‘Roll Tide,’ ‘Go Yale’

One Louisville fan had a few words for the Auburn Tigers prior to their NCAA Tournament first-round matchup with Alabama State.

The fan, who had just watched his Cardinals lose to Creighton in March Madness, had plenty of fighting words left, despite the early exit from the tournament.

He trolled Bruce Pearl’s team with “Roll Tide,” “Go Yale” and “first-round disappointment” as the Tigers were waiting to get on the court to warm-up.

The fan certainly knew which nerve to hit, though, it didn’t appear to phase the Tigers, but references to a team’s rival and the mist disappointing loss in the last year certainly hits home.

You have to hand it to those Louisville fans. During the Cardinals’ loss to Creighton, a fan appeared to throw a full water bottle on the court after a Louisville technical.
