It really pisses me off when people rant about "bandwagon" fans. And it happens about this time every year for the past few years as Caps head into the playoffs.
OF COURSE the entire DC area gets excited that one of our teams is finally doing well. And most people that didn't care about a single regular season game wouldn't claim to be a hockey expert. Would the die hard fans be happier if everyone in the area didn't care that the home town team was doing great? Or are they looking for the "lesser" fan to worship them for being more consistently supportive? Is this really a competition?
The fact is hockey is a really easy sport to watch. And get excited about. It's super fun to hate the other teams' jackass fans. I think it's great that the sport is getting some attention. I'm sure the players are loving it right now too.
GO CAPS, from a mediocre fan that LOVES YOU!
