Why are the people from Baltimore such fairweather fans with the O's?

Question

I mean really, you people treat your team so badly, If I played for them I wouldn't want to do anything other than tell you all to stick it. People from Baltimore suck!

Answer 1

If you know anything about baseball, and the Baltimore Orioles. You need to understand why the fans are not too happy with the team. Peter Angelos!

Enough said!

Answer 2

I must say i disagree that O's fans are fairweather. As an Orioles and Redskins fan living in New York, I drive down to the D.C. area a few times a year to catch a home game. I completely enjoy being surrounded by other fans that share a passion for the teams I love. It sucks living in a place other than where your favorite teams are, but it makes them all the more appreciable, especially when I go to Camden Yards.

Answer 3

I am seventeen years old (I'll be eighteen at the end of the month) and I've been an Orioles fan for as long as I can remember. I've always been a loyal, diehard Orioles fan, through thick and thin. Through all the mistakes, all the terrible trades, all the ups, all the downs.

If I were older, I'd tell you I've been a fan longer.

My friends and I are the most loyal fans around. We love our team, even if they suck.

And I also feel the need to say, yeah, I suck, what of it?

Answer 4

Actually you are incorrect. It isn't the citizens of Baltimore that suck, it's that HOOVER team. I once enjoyed and followed the Orioles, and have an example I'll present in a min.

No one,,,even you, should dare admit to backing a loser, in anything, and beyond that, their state isn't in OUR control. If I go to any event, I wanna be cheerful in cheering, not say something like,,, "SIGH better luck next time."

I live in Cent FL, Magic country, but no longer by my choice.

The choice and option to be entertained by inane displays of competitive combat should always offer us Heros, and reasons to cheer and remain hopeful.

I happen to follow and support a few teams that are no where near where I currently live, though not strictly the over paid, ego inflated A holes who happen to be on their rosters.

Answer 5

I live in the DC area and find redskins fans are loyal to the point of near insanity. I think O's fans just don't want to shell out the $$ and deal with the area's rush hour traffic around the stadium to watch them lose. They can do that at home watching TV on thier couch for free.

Answer 6

U think o's fans r bad?at least they have a reason to be that way. The marlins have won 2 world series in the last decade. Everytime sum1 hits a homerun theres like 1 guy chasin it in an empty section. At least O's fans come to the games.

Answer 7

People in the DC area arent' loyal to any of their teams. For example, I've been a Washingtonian all my life and I hate the Redskins and the Wizards. As do most of the people who live here. It's just a DC thing I guess.

Answer 8

I would assume that they are tired of paying top dollar ticket prices to watch over priced has beens give only 60% of their ability. I'm a Cub fan, I know mediocrity and I stopped watching and going to their games for the very same reason. Too long between championships, I guess.

Answer 9

I remember an article from years ago that said how Philadelphia was the worst city to be a pro team in. When you are having a bad season, your fans are abusive and hate you and when you are having a good season, your fans are abusive and hate you....

Answer 10

Ha! I think you can say that about any major league team. Some people are diie-hard fans and others leave in the 8th inning (to beat the traffic) of a tie game and say they will listen on the radio.....what's the fricken point of that?! If you'rre going to listen to it on the radio, STAY HOME and listen to it on the radio!
