Things You'll Need:
- Some knowledge of sports
- Media sources such as ESPN or the local newspaper to track scores
-
Step 1
Pick a team that has enjoyed consistent success lately. For example, the Boston Red Sox in baseball, San Antonio Spurs in basketball and the New England Patriots in football.
-
Step 2
Purchase memorabilia and clothes to represent your love for your newfound winning team. The more the better.
-
Step 3
Research the team a little bit. At least know who the star players are so you're not totally oblivious when the true fans talk about the team.
-
Step 4
Watch the team you are bandwagoning. As a bandwagon fan, you don't have to go to the stadium to watch your team play. Just hang out at a local bar or even in your own living room. Just remember to be wearing your team's jersey when its playing.
-
Step 5
Cheer when your team wins. Be serious about it. Act as if you've cheered that team since you were a little kid and you've never missed a game. The more passionate you are, the more believable it will be.
-
Step 6
Don't be ashamed of being a bandwagoning fan. As previously mentioned, everyone likes a winner. Just remember when your team falls into a slump, you can always cheer for the new winning team. That's what makes bandwagoning so fun. You can't lose.
