I have never had any bad reactions wearing UNT gear. I am a student so I never get any reactions wearing on school or around campus.
But when I go back home (Victoria which is 330 miles south of Denton) I always get good hearted comments. I was wearing my Sun Belt basketball championship shirt around our family friends (husband went to Kentucky, wife went to WKU) and we talked about how we are getting really good a basketball. Around my friends who go to other schools there is always trash talking going back and forth, being a UNT fan you have to learn to take and give a joke.
Then there is my "grandpa" who went to A&M Kingsville, thinks he went to A&M and refuses to recognize other schools besides A&M.
