Bandwagon Fans

For years when I have gone into public wearing Orioles attire, the comments have always ranged from "you know they suck" to "why would you wear that, its a disgrace to our city". Finally the wait is over, and all the hate is gone. Orioles Magic is here! All over baltimore EVERYONE is wearing Orioles jerseys, shirts, hats, ect. Orioles merchandise has become some of the most bought merchandise in the country this year. Now, having a team with sell out games and an exponential growth of fans is great, but what the question boils down to is who are the true fans? What will happen if next year the Orioles go back to their old ways, will the fans still be there? From where I stand, if you are not a true fan, get out. We don't need you. Baltimore has some of the best fans in the world. Yes the fans have exponentially grown, but you can always tell who is the true fan, the man or women walking down the street with the old tattered t-shirt on who has been supporting the O's since the day they were born. Those fans are who Baltimore truly appreciates, they are who baltimore really needs. GO O's!
