How to Identify a Bandwagon Fan
See how loyal these fans are to their team. This takes time as you may have to wait a season or more. If the team loses a playoff game,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], championship game,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], or doesn't make the playoffs, and its fan exhibits dislike of the team,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], well he was yesterday and now he's a bigger loser than his team!They may use false reasons to explain their "loyalty". Bandwagon fans tend to use all the same,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], generic reasons to explain loyalty. They may say, "I've always liked the team!", "My family is from Boston.", or the most obvious: "They're just GREAT!" excuse. Who could always care for some typical football team from Indianapolis, a city that nobody cares about and has an ignored, unheard-of basketball team, the Pacers,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], before 2007?Check out their 'fan gear'. Apparel is crucial. Do these people wear their shirts,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], caps,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and jerseys? Ask them as well. Sometimes a regular person would say,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], "I just like the jersey/cap." Fair-weather fans would usually wear a brand-new jersey. If there's a person in a Cowboys jersey out there wearing one right now,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], he is either a fair weather or not a fair weather fan. Remember that every team hits adversity at some point. Even if the Dolphins got destroyed by the Jaguars 62-7 in a playoff game in 1999, and the Cowboys were finished their regular season TERRIBLY after losing to the Eagles 44-6, a real fan continues to show support and cheers on the team.
If everyone rooted for the Steelers in the Super Bowl this year, there's no way all of them can be front runners. Maybe they just like the team. Rooting for a team in a big game is different than rooting for them all late-regular season/playoffs.
Fair weather fans tend to root for several teams at a time. Even if in the same sport, or sometimes RIVALS in the same division! A Steelers,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Colts,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Giants, Panthers, 49ers,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Chargers,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Jets,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and Dolphins fan is a bandwagon fan. Real fans side with one team in a rivalry no matter what.
Once you say to fair weather fans how they really are about the team,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], they'll probably flip. Walk away and call them a loser or something. If you want to compromise, tell them they have to cheer the team for the rest of their lives. This is big for them.
