The Bandwagon Express

Our favorite aspect of the Padres being in the playoffs is seeing all the "diehard Padre fans" popping up around town.
You know the type. They're wearing their shiny new Padres T-shirt they just purchased at Wal-Mart; they'll tell you what huge fans they are, and yet they didn't attend a single game all year. They probably didn't even bother to watch more than five games on TV all season.
But they're with you all the way now, Padres.
You want to have some fun with these trendy fans? Just press them to provide a little insight on the team.
Many of them wouldn't know Khalil Greene from Lorne Greene.
Sure, there's nothing really wrong with these fans and the team welcomes any fans it can get. But you know, somebody should let these people know that there is some baseball played before October.

Hmmm...I've never thought of San Diego fans as bandwagon jumpers. They're just more casual than the average fan.

The bandwagon is out of control right now. They're all coming out of the woodwork this week.
