    I went with other because I haven't seen a Raiders fan in years. But if the Cryptkeeper ever dies and the team turns things around, they will pop out like roaches when you move the fridge. Even Jeaux will come back.

    Well, that and I live in Pantherland, and those fans are the worst frontrunners in the world. You just don't know.

    If you've ever lived in a part of the country without an NFL team, you'd see it was the Steelers. It started happening about 6 or 7 years ago. Fuck em:steelers:

    Sorry, but that is EASY to do when the "thin" lasts two seasons. That's the highest number of consecutive losing seasons that the team has had since its first Super Bowl title in 1974.

    yea but alot of people jump on their bandwagon because they like the idea that the team is owned by the fans, cant say i blame them for that.

    I hate that ... I get that cause I got attached to the Jets around 97-98, can't blame 6 year old kid watching Steve Young in 94-95 and not become a Fan

    So the Story goes "You became a Jets fan when they got good"

    I haven't had as bad as some of the older fans but still, I hate when people question my fan hood

    I know Cowboys and Steelers are probably the biggest bandwagons to date, but in recent memory I'd have to go with either New England or Indianapolis.

    "If you've ever lived in a part of the country without an NFL team, you'd see it was the Steelers. It started happening about 6 or 7 years ago. Fuck em"

    Nonsense. Steelers fans stood by their team even through the 25 year superbowl drought. What I do see here in North Jersey are many fair weather Jets fans usually non-existent now popping out of the woodwork.

    thats localized to 1 part of the country, which would be normal, the steelers frontrunners span the entire country, which would mean there are more of them.

    25 Year Super Bowl Drought - sure. I'm really crying for ya. It must have been SOOOOO hard for you.

    The worst seasons in that drought were 5-11 (1988) and 6-10 (1986,1999,2003). Meanwhile, they had double-digit wins in a 1/3 of those seasons. They went to the playoffs 13 times.

    BIGGEST BANDWAGONING FANBASE EVER! I hope you die and come back as a Browns or Lions fan.

    Pittsburgh delenda est.

    Yeah I'm sure Steeler fans don't start coming out of the woodwork throughout Pennsylvania when they start winning...

    That's just a ludicrous argument from an typical Steelers fan.

    Cheatriots supposed "faithful" are mostly bandwaggoners, so they win as far as percentage of local fanbase.

    But as far as the team with the most people jumping on its jock that have no business being anywhere near it, that distinction belongs in Dallas.

    Speaking for the UK, if I may be so presumptuous, it's the Faders by some considerable distance. I can only presume it's the cool uniforms.
