morgantown riots

[mundodeanka]

I remember all of this like it was yesterday. Dang! That year was WILD. I must say I never was at one of the main couch burnings, but the parties that year kept the fire department working all night... WVU

[kunkymonkey]

You really have to be a dumb son of a bitch to burn your couch. I mean where will you screw your sister now?

[choffman8868]

Ah yes the burning of the couch, I love Ol WVU!!!

[taylordtaylord]

if i was those firemen i woulda taken the deck gun to the crowd. and if you don't know what the deck gun is then ask to get that to the face from the next fire truck you see haha

[wvmtneer96]

what game was this after? 03 Virginia Tech?

[noSW3AT1]

@wvmtneer96 The car was flipped after we beat Texas Tech in the 2005 ncaa basketball tourney. Such a wild experience, no one in the crowd knew the car was about to be flipped over besides the kids that were flipping it

[SweetestMalefacia]

@Pill88Dickle 1st name calling is sophomoric. I see you won't list your age. 2) Who cares if they drop out or flunk out? Burger flippers are always needed to serve the herds. 3) I don't drink, haven't since I was 23. 4) I have never or will ever watch the show you mentioned. TV is like spray painting your third eye black. 5) There is actually a reason behind the tradition of burning couches and furniture. Other stuff, there is no reason.... furniture, there is. Sorry for killing your stereotype.

[SweetestMalefacia]

@Pill88Dickle Also, since the KKK says it's founded on basic Judea Christianity, I'm gonna have to burst your bubble. There is no God!

[SweetestMalefacia]

@Pill88Dickle You raise me up, dumbass!!

Yeah, well with that mentality. you'll go reeeeeeal far in life.

PS

I worked my way through college, and have no Jew in me. You may wanna check your ass, I hear that's where they hang...

Troll on... I'll play with your fragile eggshell mind for a minute...

[SweetestMalefacia]

@Pill88Dickle WOW, You mean they have to dumb you down even further. What a sad little troll...

[SweetestMalefacia]

@Pill88Dickle Same way I'm surviving your sad diatribe, with laughter. Where did say you went to college?

U of KKK?

No, you're Islam... that wouldn't have worked...

[SweetestMalefacia]

@Pill88Dickle Yeah, my parents sent me to college. Knowing I had severe mental issues, as did the counselors at my school. I'm a loner. I love guns. I'm Asian. I'm a VT student.

R.I.P 32

Just had to be said!

[freejellybeans]

:O

[PaulSebert]

And to think GQ Magazine listed us as #2 on their worst Sports fans in America list... I have no idea why.

[sc111832]

they put a car on that shit!??! hahahaha!

[GiantEnemyCrab63]

i went to wvu for fall 2010. THEY WENT SOFT.

[SweetestMalefacia]

Morgantown RIOTS????

Hell that's a party, not a riot!!

[patmanrox]

rednecks

[0boardcertified0]

@patmanrox Hokie!

[patmanrox]

@0boardcertified0 actually no i dont like v tech

[ev44441]

it brings back so man crazy morgantown memories :)

[sabutter]

Riot my ass, good times anyone who has lived in Motown loves it. Burning couches only becomes a problem when you throw in a few jerseys.

[SweetestMalefacia]

Also 5* for the tokage at the end ;)

[SweetestMalefacia]

[WVUkswish]

5 stars for random skateboarder at 3:47

[coleporterforever]

That semester was worth all the shit that happened to me later. MORGANTOWN!!!!! I LOVE YOU!!!!

[celticchrys]

This is why I'm so glad I don't work in the fire departments in Morgantown.

[janitorsdisease]

hey atleast your always busy

[frankwvu]

Who Sucks now bass You have fun with your annual ass kicking

[bassmaster1233]

WVU Sucks. EAST CAROLINA!!!!!!

[pizzapiesonline]

haha i used to live there. this is probably after a big football game that WVU just won. mountaineers and their burning couches haha...

[mpmcd81]

Seriously, what else is there to do in Morgantown?

Was this the reaction to the new law about marriage between siblings becoming illegal or something?

[UserPickForSix]

March 25th... So it was basketball...

[rockp76]

wvu fans talk about all the thugs that go to marshall.

[bugsycline]

I fail to see where any of this qualifies as a "Riot"

Just a bunch of folks having a good time,

That is untill the bad folks came with the flashing lights and water hose.

like a big bully.

but then again, I grew up there...

this little get together is mere childs play.

[aglobalthreat08]

wow this roit is out of control soooo dope

[leesbro]

This is a riot? Looks like a bonfire.

[Primeous]

This is the WASP college student version of a riot

[brandonm3904]

bassmaster1233 has a small you know what and definitly can't catch any bass

[bassmaster1233]

That's a neat comment

[bassmaster1233]

What a bunch of idiots

[bassmaster1233]

this video blows

[djmarkley]

I am the dumb ass trying to skateboard at 3:45 in the video. This could be my claim to fame.

[McDiggy]

I was there. The students since haven't pulled off such a crazy night since. This alum is disappointed. I expect great bon fires in the near future, youngins'.

[adrock1011]

much of this video was shot in front of my house on grant street... it was a lot of fun... i think about 13 students were kicked out of school and another 24 put on probation... i give the Mo'town police a lot of credit for having to deal with this... After the Pitt game there were cops in full riot gear on every corner on grant street...

[wompasdub]

I concur

[DoveDegreeZero]

we rock.

[morgantown1]

only way to do it people

[shegarty18]

[string193]

[mountaineermaniac0]

[AllHailtheMaizenBlue]

[rickjames17085]

[kuntreeboyjay]

FREAKIN SCREW PIT! YA'll Suck and you know it! It was the luckiest day in your lives! So Celebrate now, cuz we'll be back next year for revenge!@ GO WVU and PAT WHITE! !

[Brewhaman]

[Abert1010]

U mountainqueers r really celebratin now arent u? Hahahaha u guys suck so badd its hilarious and now u cant talk shit on Pitt cause they just beat u and fucked up your BCS champ hopes. HAHAHAHAHA

[canamWVU]

Rod threw the game you ignorant wretch. Can people not see 66-20 over U-conn and 48-28 over Sooners and losing to a bunch of weiners such as Pitt in between is unusual? Go study basic football fundamentals before you make uneducated comments making you look like a Big TARD LMAO!

[philsfan33]

Pitt  beat you pussies i hope all commit suicide!

[mountaineerfan94]

love dub-v we are the best and it shall be proven Jan7 lets go! Mountaineers!!

[soccer8880]

NOBODY knows how to party like dub V!!

LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO MOUNTAINEERS!!!!!

[bugsycline]

Ah! My hometown! I love it! But I must say that in the early 90's the Kids would have pushed back the police. Now they breakup everybody's good time with riot gear and mace. You should vote for politicians whom want to cut police funding!

[ledzep614]

YES! the old couch burning tradition noone parties like WV

[YourWorstCritic]

1.) I'm not sure I would call it a riot since it was in one spot. It seemed more like a bunch of drunk people getting rowdy.

2.) WV definitely has it's shortcomings, but the people that make these generic stereotypes about inbred hillbillies don't know what they're talking about. Every state has dumb rednecks, even NY and CA. The reality is that the people that make those jokes are the uneducated, ignorant ones, not every West Virginian. The people in this video on the other hand, maybe...

[canamWVU]

You're correct in that some people found anywhere in the US are redneck hillbillies, especially Ca. I spent some time there 3 yrs ago and I've never met more rude and solipsistic individuals. People need to drop the genetic issues about cousins and hillbillies, that stuff is antiquated and redundant. I'm sure they're now running for the dictionary to see what I just wrote LMAO!

[acslatz]

What the fuck were you doing in Cali? Do they have coal mines there? Tard?

[canamWVU]

acslatz, I was taking care of my job in Ca like it's any of your business. You ask me about coal mines in Ca? How would I know? Why don't you put in for a transfer to a different mental asylum located in Ca and research it for us then you can maybe get one of your monkeyhumpin family members a job.

[rickjames17085]

Ok, the guy is being a douche, we can all see that, but instead of making yourself (and every other person from WV) look ignorant, why not be the bigger person and ignore it?

If you can't do that atleast come up with something better than calling him retarded, and going after his family just isn't cool.

[canamWVU]

Sorry Pastor Meddlesome, didn't know I was doing that. Of course I don't know him or his family, this is just silliness anyway. Just people yapping, ease up a bit. Its all in fun to get a laugh and if you don't think its worthy of a laugh stop reading it and go to a comedy club, they're better trained anyway. You're most likely acslatz's brother anyway.

[sreno0207]

ya lets get drunk and set some shit on fire. maybe later you can screw your cousin and have little imbred babies...i hate WV

[mccallid]

you dont desevre to breathe dub v air you fag

[canamWVU]

People generally lean toward sports hating comments when they either #1 Can't compete or #2 suck entirely or #3 just too ignorant to understand what I just wrote. I have a feeling its all the above, Tard..LMAO

[acslatz]

Wow, you are retarded. So, then Stanford over USC, Appy State over MI doesn't ring a bell for you in the year of upsets? Shit happens in sports. Grow up and deal with it. By the way, WVU beat OU with RRod's team, and with many of the assistants that are going to MI. Enjoy your new POS coach. lol.

[canamWVU]

acslatz that was a pretty generic reply for normal people but WOW since it came from a totally brain-dead moron I'll give ya a 7.5 LMAO. What a real dufas we have here folks. Be sure to send him plenty coloring books to keep him busy while his parents sneak out for a night in the local pub LMAO!

[Paul1893]

next time you're trying to insult someone else's intelligence don't say something like "dufas", its doofus. "LMAO!"

[canamWVU]

Oh I well know what a doofus is. You don't know what a dufas is? It's not much like a doofus. Before you try correcting someone maybe you should find out what they are saying beforehand . LMAO!

[nwheatcraft]

FUCK YOU

[Ten4GoodBuddy]

I party in MO town!!!

Anyone who thinks WV is full of hicks and such are dumb fuckers. Go to the #1 party school in the nation and you'll see whast up!!!

LETS GO EERS!!!!!!!

[rickjames17085]

Yeah, I agree, but south of Clarksburg and I'm pretty sure most people have never seen shoes... or a tooth-brush

[golfpimp113088]

kpup has obviously spent the last 3 years with his head up his ass... WVU is the shit and definately number one for partyin!! and more then half the people that go to WVU are not even from WV so before you open your mouth about redneck hillbillie's, know what tha fuck your talking about! try visiting the place if you think you can take it!! and tuition isnt anywher near cheap so in a way yeah, ya get what ya pay for!

[spillbait69]

drunken retards

[sslanchi]

i know what mace tastes like cuz of that night

[adrock1011]

yo... actually the cops were pretty cool that night... i mean think about it... we were fuckin nuts and only like 30 people got arrested... of course i think like 12 got kicked out of school

[Kpup]

WVU fans are pieces of shit.

[sslanchi]

ur a bitch

[Kpup]

And you are a dumb, redneck hillbilly. The WVU football team is completely overrated. 90% of the teams they play are high-school caliber. WVU as a University is the #1 party school, but that is about all that they are good for. You get what you pay for, I guess.

[canamWVU]

Hey KFAGpup, do you actually understand football? WVU just stomped Sooners and a few other good teams this year and if you think state lines define people as hillbillies or intelligent then you're about as ignorant as your comment indicates. OK, now run get that dictionary and look up indicate, freggin TARD. LMAO!

[rickjames17085]

dude, the dictionary comment gets old, new material would be great, in 4 out of 5 comments you ended with "LMAO" but amazingly, not one of them was funny

[dgrub]

fuck you dog, get off your comp and come to west v... not only will u have the best time of ur life (if u dont get killed first) but u will see how good of a U it is. "what you pay for"?? look into school tuitions for a lil bit and u'll see this place aint cheap. did i mention fuck you?

[nickstgg]

fuck you cunt from all the wvu fans!!!

[bluesqueen789]

WVU is the greatest place on Earth. It's like Disney World as crazy and rowdy and awesome as it could be. MO-town is Mecca!!!

[Kpup]

If Morgantown is DisneyWorld, my ass is Mecca.

[Methadone4Life]

Being a West Virginian who has lived in NC,Myrtle Beach,SC and a few other places...you might laugh at us hillbillies..but you wont fuck with us..LOL!

[iwillberich2]

i remember this lol so fun dumb ass cops..

[rascalrascal]

yea man dumbass cops trying to keep people from starting fires and destroying peoples cars

what a bunch of fucking assholes

[mistarcraw]

i'm gonna kill some cops!

[xxWakeboard7xx]

ahahah! this is the home state that i love. man nice soundtrack to this video btw. And to all the people that are calling us retards...im sorry you feel that way but honestly if you had nothing else to do but drink and burn couches you probably would have a similar video posted

[monewb]

These aren't REAL residents of Morgantown. These Are the WVU Students, From all over the country. WVU #1 Party College,

[zsmitty3]

WTF what else are you suppose to do? If you want to dance there's clubs...frats...ITS FUCKING COLLEGE....the Denver rioted after the Broncos won but tore up other peoples shit instead of their own...so keep walking around with your noses up in the air too cool and sophisticated to have any fun while I die happy with no regrets.

[joloflin]

i lived in WV for 8 years and I'm dang glad to get out of there i know there isn't anything to do but burning stuff is ridiculous...dang rednecks i swear

[wvu2009]

Welcome to Morgantown...not for the timid

[wvu2009]

off the fucking

[wvu2009]

hook

[sczyrny]

Morgantown is insane

[vadude68]

they don't call it Morganhole for nothing.

[neji131]

morgantown isnt insane u should go there and look the only recent actual MURDER was that Michelle Michael murer in fact the outcome of the trial should be in the domnion post tomorrow. LETS GO MOUNTAINEERS!!!

[Dunnzilla]

Never liked that place.

[000aaron000]

haha..i live like...20 minutes from morgantown.

[yamhadrumer]

Makes me damn proud to be a mountaineer

[superjumpbrother]

"FUCK THIS ROCKING CHAIR!" Please don't judge everyone at WVU by these dumbshits. Those cops are a joke as well. They make riot gear and rubber bullets for a reason. I'm pretty sure that reason is to shoot college kids neck. At least that's what i use rubber bullets for.

[dustcoloredstars]

This is also my hometown - and the drug/ drunk culture is SSSSOOOO strong there because it's SSOOOO boring! (hence the couch burning - get a life) I'm very happy to have escaped and found sobriety. Like there's nothing else going on in the world to scream about!!!

[mrsryanrossxx]

and to think thats my hometown.

morgantown its not full of hicks, slut, whores, white-trash...we're human beings just like anyone else in this world.

people are so fucking judgemental!

*and we do that to celebrate...not to be stupid.

[WVUdropout]

After the '02 or '03 win against VT, the cops responded to 160 street fires. The biggest one on Grant Ave. was three dumpsters in a triangle with couches piled at least 15 ft. high. The flames were at least 25ft high, but the electricity on the street was turned off. Me and my friends were covered in soot, but we went to the bar after that because there was no electricity on the whole block. West Virginia fun fact: Its the only state that looks like its giving you the finger.

"We won the football game! LET'S BURN THE FURNITURE IN MY LIVING ROOM!"

Bit of advice, don't vote, don't have kids, sell your car and jump off a cliff. If you do this in my yard, I'll cave your head in.

[nwheatcraft]

Er I sounded a bit more angry than I am haha. I'm not directing it at you the author, sorry didn't mean to make it sound like that. But the reason I'm so mad is because that night someone thought my friends car needed caught on fire.  Oh and someone else thought a couple girls needed assaulted or raped that night as well. I'm sure you're intelligent enough, but most of the people in this video are RETARDED.

[stoobs]

i wouldnt say that there retarded... drunk is more like it.

[FelonyFilmsInc]

the girls shouldnt act like whores, and your friend shouldnt park his car in sunnyside

[atsoced14]

angry prick

[dgrub]

cunt

[bigboss7723]

It is a West Virginia mountaineers tradition just like smashing cars except we burn couches

[empirion13]

Even though these are my peeps, just imagine what would've happened to the retards if the flaming telephone pole had weakened.

[productionsbytk]

welcome to Morgantown

[000aaron000]

this happens in Morgantown?!

the only thing that ever happened to me interesting in Morgantown is having eggs thrown at me lol.

[FelonyFilmsInc]

dont be such a pussy then

[sp00nb0i]

What a bunch of morons.

[atsoced14]

poor spoon boy, your prolly just jelous because your either a little faggot kid that doesnt have a clue of what hes talking about or a 50 year old greasy fattass that is still angry cuz he didnt get into WVU

...or a pitt fan.

[dgrub]

envious

[FelonyFilmsInc]

fuck yo bro, come to dub v and talk shit
