The reason deep down any of us became Phoenix Suns fans is because we wanted to be part of something bigger than ourselves. We wanted a sense of community and belonging. In essence, we wanted a family we could choose rather than one randomly assigned to us.
Sometimes our fandom was passed down to us like an inheritance and other times we chose it upon our arrival in a new city as a kid. No matter how we first became fans though, we’re all connected through this unique bond. We are one big, odd and oddly disgruntled family.
