I guess I'm an old-timer, but if anyone is complaining about "fake Redskins fans," they obviously weren't around to enjoy the Redskins bandwagon phenomenon during our Super Bowl years. Tony Kornheiser would write columns every week in the Post, exhorting the citizens of DC to "get on the bandwagon!" It was so much fun: all of a sudden, checkout counter clerks at every Giant Food grocery store, every schoolteacher, every grandmother, every person in town couldn't stop talking about the Redskins. For the '92 Super Bowl, the Washington Post even distributed free "Bandwagon" bumper stickers with the morning paper on the Sunday of the NFC Championship game against Detroit.
Just enjoy it all! Sheesh!
