In my experience, the hatred within the Cal/Stanford rivalry was always uneven and weighted toward Berkeley's side of the teeter-totter. Stanford fans, by and large, keep score of everything from Supreme Court Justices to Tech millionaires but don't impart to this the moral or spiritual superiority that most Ca.l fans do. (And yes I know there are reasonable Ca.l fans as well.)
When we read the obnoxious stereo-typing on Cal forums we roll our eyes and find it hard to believe that educated people actually buy in to this stuff. It's hard to believe because when it happens over here it's mostly tongue in cheek and not heart-felt.
Except for when I posted about Scott Fujita and Mike Silver being pinko, commie, fifth column infiltrators and thugs. I meant that.

In 1938 Neville Chamberlain declared "Peace in our time", Superman first appeared in Action Comics, Seabiscuit beat War Admiral ....... and C.a.l last won the Rose Bowl.
