"We are!!!!" "Islamic State!!!" Penn State fans get rowdy with Iranian democracy supporters. Iran's mullahs are seeing red about the blue and white. Members of the Revolutionary Guard and the administration of Ahmed Adinnerjacket have cracked down on a group of Penn State fans who led a crowd of protesters in the "We are.... Islamic State" chant. The Penn State fans were swept up in a parade of hundreds of thousands of Mir Hossein Mousavi supporters who were protesting recent election inconsistencies in Tehran. The fans then began the rousing "We Are" chant. "The left half was the 'we are' group," said John Johnson, one of the Penn State Islamic revolutionaries, whose blue paint was now replaced by black and blue reminders of his beating at the hands of guards. "The right half did the 'Islamic State' thing." Unfortunately, none of the Penn Staters knew the Farsi words for "thank you" or "you're welcome" to complete the chant, since Americans rarely hear those words in Tehran. The group also usurped the "Death to the United States" chant, switching it to "Death to Ohio State." The scene quickly got out of hand and members of the Revolutionary militia moved in to arrest the protesters. The Americans were arrested and released only after members of the Iranian guard realized that head coach Joe Paterno actually knew the Prophet Muhammad, meeting him during a coaches get-together for Paul "Bear" Bryant. Good thing, too. The Obama administration refused to take a stand on the holding of American hostages, preferring to let the mullahs make their own decisions. Johnson said the group was in Iran as part of a cultural exchange. "Since central Pennsylvania doesn't have a culture," said Johnson. "Our actions were already viewed suspiciously." The Penn State fans said they learned their lesson. "Always get drunk after the parade in a theocracy," said Johnson. "And the Nittany nation is a kind of theocracy."
