Biggest banwagoners, etc..........

Yankees? Patriots? Cowboys? Red Sox? Colts? What team out there, regardless of sport, do you think gets their wagon "jumped on" the most? Which teams have the most "true and loyal" fans nationwide? RJB's podcast today showed some of the idiot's that are out there. The guy he was arguing with claimed to be a "Raider" fan that all of a sudden pulls for the Colts! Wtf was that!! I love the Boyz, and I also pull for VY, but I am a Cowboy above all. My wife got us tickets for the Cowboy-Tennessee game last year in Tennessee, which was VY's first career start. I wanted him to have a decent game and not get hurt, but I was more than happy for the Boyz to hand the Titans the convincing beating. I sat next to a guy from NY that had flown in for the game and was a die hard Cowboy fan. He explained to me that he had always been a Cowboy fan, even though he was born and raised in NY. There are a few like him out there that are true, but obviously the Patriot bandwagoners are getting out of control. I can remember other examples as well. When I lived in the Dallas area, I can remember going to Ranger games (ya I actually paid to watch them! LOL!) and being out numbered by the Yankee fans when the Yanks came to town. I am sure some of them were long time Yankee fans, but you could always point out the ones that you could obviously tell ran out a bought some Yankee merchandise that day and decided they were all of a sudden die hard Yankees! I am just curious how it is in other parts of the country.

That reminds me of USC. There was a lot of USC bandwagoning going on a few years ago, even in Texas. Funny how a bunch of them wanted to jump back on the Texas bandwagon after the 2006 seaon!
