@cptaidan88: While I do hate Offenbach for obvious reasons I don´t think they deserve 4th division football. They still have a good following and 3rd/2nd division is where they should be. They stick to their club even though Frankfurt is literally around the corner which deserves respect no matter the rivalry.
KSC versus Stuttgart is a pretty intense rivalry. Both clubs are located in the state of Baden Württemberg, but as Ruhr said its a very tribal thing. Stuttgart is Swabia while Karlsruhe is Baden (not sure what the english word is) and they absolutely hate each other.
Shortly after Stuttgarts relegation was confirmed KSC supporters "welcomed" them to the 2nd division and showed Stuttgarts mascot nailed to a cross at their next homegame.
Mannheim is more of a ice hockey town but they still got a set of loyal football fans, however I don´t think they will ever become "a thing" again. The area is crowded with football clubs these days with Hoffenheim, KSC, Stuttgart, Mainz, K-Town, Frankfurt around the corner, so it will be really hard for them to get a foot on the ground.
