and the marlins, pirates, royals aren’t going to follow in the Rays’ footsteps! The Marlins won two world series in a 10 year span and still get like 18,000 fans per game. give me a break.

Rays fans are allowed to get excited about their team, just not in an “i’m better than you” way that makes them seem like total phonies. stop banging your goddamn cowbell and pay attention to the friggin’ baseball game.

And the fact you’re poking fun at people in pictures, scoreboard videos, and cowbells is just idiocy. This can be said about any ballpark in the league. The Cubs will have their goats, the Brewers have their Sausage races, the Phillies have their fair share of dumb jingles, slogans, and stole their towels from the neighboring Steelers.

Just because the Rays front office did a much better job than anyone else in baseball this year doesn’t mean you need to get jealous of their success. Their fans, from what I’ve met, are just as dedicated as any others, and they’ve picked up a lot more with their recent success. Instead of poking fun at their new fan base, what we should be doing is hoping other small market teams (Pirates, Marlins, Royals, etc.) can follow in this franchises footsteps and show the MLB that you don’t need 100 million dollar payrolls and arogant superstars to bring home a League Championship.
