The SEC's #1 Heckler?

The NY Times has an article on "Vandy Lance" a Vanderbilt fan whose heckling has become legendary. Per the article:
"A recent scouting report of the Vanderbilt baseball team, put together by a league opponent, read in part: "The top recruiting class in the nation, including a heavy-hitting third baseman. Tough place to play. No. 1 heckler in the Southeastern Conference."
This pretty much makes Vandy Lance the ultimate "That Guy." He's the guy that other fans say, "You see that guy? I hate that guy. That guy right there is the reason I hate Vandy fans."

I know what you're thinking. "The New York Times? Why on earth is the 'Paper of Record' writing about SEC fans?" Just to ease your mind, I can tell you that the writer doesn't blame George Bush for Vandy's lack of athletic success. Nor does the article establish a link between Halliburton and Vandy Lance. So...it's a safe read no matter your political leanings.


Vandy Lance in Action

Hat tip to Warren.
