We’ve all met them. They’re the people (dare I say fans) who routinely pledge their allegiance to the Bengals and then fade away. If the Stripes are doing well and on a serious hot streak, these “fans” are pests that never shut up. But, as soon as times get rough, they seem to hide behind the nearest shrub and claim they saw it coming. It’s that time of year. Get ready for the bandwagon troops to settle in for at least the first half of the season.

If you’ve never encountered a bandwagon fan, they’re easy to spot.
