DOWNTOWN — A Southern California newspaper columnist has lashed out at Chicago hockey fans, lamenting they have invaded Orange County and have brought their "annoying" ways with them.

In a column published Saturday (before the Anaheim Ducks took a 1-0 lead over the Blackhawks in the Western Conference Finals), Orange County Register columnist Jeff Miller wrote, "Chicago fans, please permit me to be the first to say it: You're annoying."

Miller bemoaned how Hawks fans, with their propensity to travel to see their favorite team, take over stadiums of opponents on road games. While he allowed that such devoted fans "should be applauded," he said the Chicago fans take it too far.

The slapshots included:

• Describing Chicago fans as "sort of like Red Wings fans, only with worse personal hygiene."

• Ahead of the Sunday game, he predicted that Blackhawks fans would "invade" the Ducks' home stadium "proudly showing off their Blackhawks jerseys, chanting their grating chants." He added that Hawks fans "gloat everytime Jonathan Toews does anything even remotely productive, like blow his nose on the ice."

• Making fun of the way Chicagoans talk. Referring to Ducks player Corey Perry, Miller wrote that he will get email from Hawks fans using the word "seen" as in "I seen Perry do this" or "I seen Perry do that."

"I'm not sure what that's about," he said. "I guess it's a Midwest thing."
