The "I'm sorry" line -- sometimes joking, sometimes not -- seems to come out with a whole bunch of regional prejudices. (And trust me, Minnesota gets it as bad as any place in the country. Yah, sher, ya know, it's all lutefisk and ice fishing up here. Minneapolis is exactly like Lake Wobegon. Exactly. Uh-huh.) Even when it's a joke, it's a damned rude one; when it's not, it's vicious. I'd have been tempted to tell the SFan in question to step off before you went and got all South Central on his ass, but I suppose that wouldn't really have helped.
