Love all sports, but some of the best hecklers are the Cameron Crazies from Duke. A buddy of mine was a descent basketball player for Army. Army(Obv. not even close to the powerhouse that is Duke) was playing at Duke. My buddy, pretty much unknown, was heckled with details of our high school(a small private hs),previous girlfriends, etc.This was before facebook too, Duke fan's must have been searching for days for the words to somewhat get to every player or a team that they beat by 40+ points.
