described me to teee, moved here from latam and became a fan in 04 (been a miserable fan my whole life and dont understand my allegiance to this team, but I love them), I went to a small private school in baltimore, no ties to UM in any way except been a season ticket holder for 5 years.I don't follow other teams' fans, but I doubt there's such a large congregation of miserable ******* fringe fans at many other colleges. A great majority of our fans have no real connection to UM. Most of them jumped on the bandwagon in the early 2000s.
They're the types who like UM football and UNC basketball or some goofy **** like that. Their favorite pro teams are the Pats, the Yankees, and the Lakers. I'm not sure many other colleges have these sorts of fringe fans with no real connection to the school other than some t-shirts they bought in HS to feel cool.
