Sports: an activity involving physical exertion and skill in which an individual or team competes against another or others for entertainment. With any type of sport comes the sports fans which could be described as an enthusiastic devotee of sports who becomes a completely different person while watching their favorite team play.
Whatever the case, you don't mess with a fan and their favorite teams.....ever.
Every person is different which makes every sports fan different. So the real question is, which sports fan are you?
1.The Screamer
This is the person who ends up screaming every five seconds because the team they are rooting for are either did something fantastic or messed up tremendously. This is also the person who firmly believes that if they scream loud enough, the team will hear them and can listen to their two cents. The majority of the time, this person is the one who is heavily involved with being a fan of the team but don’t let the shy people foul you because they can be just as loud if not louder.
Tip: Noise canceling headphones are highly recommended.
2. The Quite-Mad Fan
This is the person who will sit around in silence as they badmouth the team in their head. They find that not saying anything is better than whatever may come out of their mouths.
Tip: It’s best to leave these people alone and let them be quite or you may have to face repercussions.
3. The Superstitious Fan
These are the people that wear the same thing every game, eat the same food every game, and have a solid routine of when things need to be done. If this routine is changed, even in the slightest way, it could risk the team’s ability to play efficiently and win the game.
Tip: Let these people believe their beliefs at all cost. You don’t want to get in a fight with how wearing the same hat every Wednesday at four will improve the quarterback’s ability to not throw an interception.
4. The Bandwagon Fan
These are the fans that claim to have been following the team since day one but really only started liking them because they won the championship. You can quiz them to see if they know their facts and majority of the time they will claim that they don’t pay attention to those details but they watch every game.
Tip: Let those fans be bandwagon fans because they will change their team frequently and we all know where the loyal fans are.
5. The Die-Hard Fan
These fans are the fans that you don’t mess with. They are the season ticket holders, the people throwing tailgates before every game, the people who dressed their kids in team gear while they grow up and the people who cover their car with stickers of their team. They know the names of every player, current, and the past, and what number they are. They love to tell people why their team is the best and never pass up the opportunity to brag about their love and appreciation for the team.
Tip: Make your life goal to be this type of fan.
No matter what type of fan you are, we all share the same love for sports and that is all that matters.
