no offense (it's in the geneva convention)...but they're probably all too old to work a computer.

although out of about 150 old people, at least 1 of them should be around here

A big group of the Bums are in their 20's/30's.

Some of them lurk here and post rarely, including Jerry - the guy who does the heckle.

:p:

but the other day i tried to count them and i estimated 150, at the very most...but seriously, how many of them are there? i looked at joining them a while back, but to be honest, i don't like where they sit...now if they truely on the baseline, that maybe a different story (and yes i under the charter pricing/demand/and other reasons why they sit where they sit)

i repsect what they do for the community and the legacy they represent, but aren't these folks a longway from what the original hardcore bums were all about? just a question, again, no disrepect, but there are rowdy people who seem more into the game in the upper level.

I do rag on the bums alot, but they do a get a few chants started every once and awhile. It just seems like they need to get a younger, louder crowd to join up.

I'm curious what the criteria is now. In the 80s, it was to ride the other team, wear Spurs gear, get rowdy at games, and work maybe an hour at a gate passing out jerseys, posters, etc. out whenever there was a giveaway.

The Baseline Bums have a limited number of vacancies and are currently accepting membership applications for the 2008-2009 Spurs Season. In addition to the application, those interested will be interviewed by Bum membership committee members to ensure they understand what the requirements are and review Bum benefits. The Bum's are looking for die-hard Spurs fans who are willing to donate 25 hours of Spurs designated volunteer work in lieu of significantly discounted season tickets, pay $30 annual membership dues, sell raffle tickets and support the Spurs in an enthusiastic, positive manner.

If you'd like more information on the Baseline Bums or would like to apply for membership, please visit www.baselinebums.org, email [email protected] or call the Bum hotline at (210) 444-5896.

Anyone whos ever traveled to other citys. Including citys in Texas. Will easily tell you San Antonioians for whatever reason thinks they're to good for anyone. I love this city, but some of the people mostly women have such bad attitudes towards anything. And people wonder why we lead the nation with so many Fat people? If yall had any idea of how many seats have to be fixed at the AT&T, because someones behind barley fits into it. You would be amazed.

They need to install microphones in the BB's section, otherwise I can't ever hear them.

They aren't what they used to be, back in the Hemisphere Arena.

Organizational and scheduled fandom with criteria, membership rules and hierarchy is just marketing and the new BB seems to be the Spur's recognized Boy/Girl Scout service extension. Nothing wrong with it. The modern day version of a team's "homeowner's association" running around watching each other and their actions rather than the game..

The old Bums were rowdy, spontaneous, devoted and motivated by their own joined loyalty and open fearlessness. Their legacy of actions speaks for itself. Teams used to hate them and many have said so. I doubt a team today if asked would know who they are. They are past.

The new Baseline Bums are not the old Baseline Bums. Never will be.

True story.

My wife and I are at a game and they announce and recognize the baseline bums. She looks to the section of older women and says, "Who are the baseline mums?"
