In 1991, I moved to Seattle and quickly learned what life was like as an out-of-market fan. There was no Internet back then, so obtaining coverage of your favorite team was a real chore.
This is where social media has had its greatest impact on my life. As a lifelong Rams fan located behind enemy lines in Seahawks country, I no longer feel like I am the only Rams fan in this area. I have formed a local fan group in the Seattle area that holds yearly Rams Draft gatherings (where we have been joined by Johnny Hekker’s family) and game day events at various watering holes.
