Do you ever get teased about beaing a balto fan at school?
I do and I hate it. I get teased mostly cause, they think what they are a fan of is better than balto.
I've been called only,
Balto freak.

or I get a question" why do you like balto so much?
It may sound nice, but they laugh when they say it.

So have you ever been teased like this?

P.S. I hope this dosen't get locked.
Sorry if its a ussless post.

I do get harassed sometimes. But usually the worst I get is when somebody calls me Balto. Even then, it's mostly just my friends, so it doesn't bother me.

I'm in luck there. My friends know that I like Balto, but even they do not know that I'm on here. If they did, they would surely harass me. And I have gotten the "What are you drawing, Balto?" line. Although, I actually was, so I guess it wasn't that bad.

Nobody doesn't really know about Balto except for my friend Dana and we never get teased at all (My friend loves Balto too)

yes people bug me about it but i dont care what they think. they allways ask why do you like wolves so much? why do you like dogs so much? why do you like Balto so much? personally i care less of what they think of me. but the way they treat me is how some people judge them.

Yes, I've been teased. We had a drawing contest at school, so I entered. I drew a picture of Balto and got third place and my picture in the school paper. I got so mad when a girl at my school annouced it to the everyone that I was "Balto's Baby".

I think a topic like this was created before, but what the who...it's still an interesting topic.

Yup yup!! I'm no exception. Me being the middle child, my brother being the younger fool, he never really lets it go when he sees me on here, using the only computer in the house that has internet, so he can go and play his silly little Runescape game. He makes fun it it...calls me stupid...calls Balto stupid. But really -- who's the only stupid one around here? XDDD

At school, no one pays any attention to me, so I can draw whatever the heck I want, and no one'd care. ^^ Being a loner is good in some ways. But some people who know me, and know that I like Balto...they respect what I respect -- and I do the same in return. If people tease me, I shrug it off...they're just jealous because THEY'RE not an animated hero!! Anyways...ever since all my "friends" found Backstreet Boys on my iPod, nothing really comes as a surprise to them anymore.

Noone has any idea I am a Balto fan.


...Or a Kermit fan...

Oh yeah...We're all totally oblivious. XDDD

The only thing where I scared from is that she me teased without this film. I want to talk with my classmates but if she lafing with me? They have me never teased with this film.

i only tell my 4 closest friends what i like, i would get teased if i told anyone else that i liked balto

Well, my parents think I'm pretty weird still liking animated movies at fifteen but I tell them that it helps with Art. And that animated movies amaze me with how they're made. As for the fascination with Balto in general, my mum thinks that I'm mad and my dad just goes along with it.

Friends.. well, none of them actually know who Balto is.
And most think that they're too old for animated movies. Hehe. I'm on my own really. If I told people about being a Balto fan and going on boards, buying Balto merchandise on eBay and stuff they'd probably tease me.. or think I'm a freak.
