My story is likely similar to your story, and you’ve probably heard it from all your fellow Clipper fans. We grew up amongst Laker fans, often within our families. They were not our preference and we grew an affinity to the Clippers. Whether it be through the players, going to games, the community, or a combination, we are still greatly outnumbered but completely proud. I have been away from Southern California for a good majority of the last decade or so, but I still wear the Clippers so proudly on my chest, even if my Blake Griffin and Chris Paul jerseys aren’t popular items in my cupboard.
