Anybody who both listens to sports talk radio and reads a Television Without Pity Message board will note similarities to fan reactions after playoff games and series finales.

Or in any other given circumstance. There was a sports memoribilia store located around the corner from the camera store at which I used to work. I remember one weekend a couple of years ago during which they held a Redskins Super Bowl XXII reunion, for which they brought in a dozen or so players from the team for signings and a private party where people willing to pay for the privilege could mix-and-mingle with the players. I met one guy, who came into the store to have his pictures printed, who had driven down from somewhere on Long Island to attend. I couldn't help thinking of my friend Mandy, who drove from San Francisco to San Diego a few years ago to meet Amber Benson, and how a lot of people I know would consider her nuts for doing that but not say the same of that Redskins fan from New York, even though the behavior is pretty much exactly the same.
