Every article I have written for A Sea of Blue has had a broad target of Big Blue Nation along with anyone else willing to read it. I have decided to step out of the normal format and pay homage to the members of BBN who have endured misery... and those same ones who have experienced euphoria over the years. While I hope any and everyone will read it, this article will only relate to a specific portion of BBN.
There are four types of UK fan out there:
- UK Football Only (much respect to these masochists)
- UK Basketball Only (no begrudging them, but they just will not understand)
- UK Basketball Fan / "Insert winning program" Football fan (in a word, unacceptable)
- UK Football and Basketball fan (those who live and die by the Blue and White from August through April)
I dare say there is no truer fan of sport, than the Kentucky Football Fan, also known as "The Fellowship of The Miserable," according to Bill Curry.
