Wealthy School Apologizes For Insulting Chants
MIDDLETON, Wis. -- Officials at a Wisconsin high school are apologizing for insults chanted at a basketball game.
In their chant, fans of a suburban Madison school insulted their city opponents by suggesting they need food stamps to eat.
The Middleton High School fans chanted "food stamps, food stamps" and "Os-car May-er" during a game against Madison East on Dec. 20.
Middleton is a well-to-do suburb, while 40 percent of Madison East's students are eligible for federally subsidized lunches.
Oscar Mayer's headquarters lies in East's attendance area.
Middleton officials sent a letter of apology to East on Friday.
Middleton's principal said three seniors started the chant and they've offered to apologize.
East got the last laugh. They beat Middleton 66-55.
