I was a student in the stormtrooper era and remember quite vividly some guy rearing back and punching someone else in the stands at Stanford Stadium. Honestly, my best guess is that some of that late '90s violence was related more to Bay Area hooliganism than collegiate rivalry. But much of it was also clearly introduced by Kal fans, and my contempt and wariness of them as a group remains to this day.

That sort of violence is shameful on its own, and if that era of open and pervasive hostility never returns, well, so be it.
