LSU bride creatively ruins Alabama groom’s cake, further proving that SEC fans are the best

SEC fans are a special breed, a fact we've provided endless evidence of on this here dadgum site. Whether it's a bride altering her LSU-loving husband groom's cake of his dreams, a Georgia fan acting as a human alarm clock in his neighborhood or a Mississippi State baseball fan duping a news channel, it's clear these people are just better at sports-fanning than the rest of us. Now, we can add this LSU bride to that list.
In a viral video tweeted by Louisiana news channel WAFB, a groom is seen cutting his Alabama Crimson Tide-themed cake, and talking some nice smack in the process. As he should be, because his Tide have not only won 20 national championships in the last 10 years (give or take), but they've also steamrolled LSU to the tune of seven straight wins, making a once proud rivalry embarrassingly lopsided in less than a decade. So, as an LSU fan, you've got to take your victories wherever and however you can get them. For this bride, that meant cre..

Cleveland DMV uses picture of LeBron James to keep people from smiling in their driver’s license photos

Apparently you're not supposed to smile in your driver's license photo. Why? We have no idea. Probably because there's no reason to look happy when handing it to Officer Nutcrusher for doing 57 in a 50 on your way home from work on a Friday afternoon. For anyone who hasn't already found the DMV experience so debasing they may literally never smile again, however, one Cleveland location came up with a creative, if cold-blooded, solution. Check it out:

Look up “savage” in the dictionary. It's just a screengrab of this tweet. It's no secret that the Believeland faithful took LeBron's South Beach fling harder than his recent La La Landing, but this is still sadistic to an almost criminal degree.
Now we don't know who posted this and probably never will. Are they a long-distance Lakers fan? Have they adopted the Browns' laugh-to-keep-from-crying sense of humor? Do they just want to watch the wo..

The Cubs fan who took a foul ball from a kid is actually not a monster in an M. Night Shyamalan-esque twist

On Sunday, we, we as in golf fans and media, thought the internet was burning to the ground over Tiger Woods taking the lead at the Open Championship. While that was cute, it was merely child's play in comparison to the metaphorical rioting in the streets that was occurring on Twitter over an occurrence at a different sporting event. That occurrence being a monster in a Cubs jersey STEALING a foul ball from a child at Wrigley Field. Have a watch and decide for yourself if this man deserves 25 to life:
https://twitter.com/Cut4/status/1021147509849305089
Now, we can understand why people would immediately jump to conclusions if this was the only video and only thing you saw from this situation. And when the MLB's Cut4 Twitter account, which is one of the better accounts you'll see on Twitter, tweets it out with that description, chances are people will pile on without any other information available to them. This man is a villain, he is Satan on earth, he must be stopped a..

British Open 2018: Fan hit by critical Tiger Woods shot captures incredible video of the incident

It’s unclear whether Tiger Woods caught a good or bad break when his second shot on Carnoustie’s par-4 11th caromed off a fan during Sunday's final round. What is now known, however, is that the fan he hit came away with an incredible story to tell — and show. Even if his head and his phone took a bit of a beating in the process.

Following the conclusion of the 147th Open Championship, Colin Hauck shared a video he was taking while Woods hit the critical shot that wound up being the turning point of his round.

Great stuff, Colin. Although, maybe if you were actually watching the shot instead of trying to record it. . .
Anyway, the hard bounce resulted in Woods’ golf ball winding up m..
