What's on your mug?

Someone who becomes a fan of something because everyone else is.

Example 1 Johnny, "Hey, I heard that everybodies voting for Barack Obama!" Bill, "Why, what political views of his do they support and what about his past makes them believe he will be a good president?" Johnny, "I don't know but I love him, he's sooooo cool! He sounds so nice when he talks!!!" Bill, "Johnny, you're a bandwagon fan!" Example 2 Johnny, "Bill why do you like the Yankees and the Patriots even though you're from Texas?" Bill, "I have some friends who made me big fans!!!" Johnny, "Bill you're a bandwagon fan!"

Whenever a region's sports team suddenly gets really good really quickly, everyone and their fucking dog either buys a sports jersey or takes their old one out of the closet where it's been for 20 years, proclaiming they are a diehard fan. Bandwagon fans usually flock to their team's games in large numbers and usually constitute 80% of that team's fanbase. See Florida Gators.

Gators Bandwagon Fan #1: Hey man, I heard Tim Tebow is playing today on TV! Gators Bandwagon Fan #2: Oh yeah! Who cares that I didn't know who the Florida Gators were before their national title season! I'm a Gator Fan for life!

Switches support to whatever team/game/allegiance/belief happens to be successful at the time

"Brothers in Arms fans were pissing there pants once they played Call of Duty:World at War, now they're saying the its the most authentic game ever. And all this because the MP of Brothers in arms:Hell's Highway sucked... Such worthless bandwagon fans" "Celtics fans at the middle of the 07-08 NBA season"

When a person decides to route for a team, not because they are faithful fans, but because it is the popular thing to to. Perhaps the team is winning, their friends are fans or they may be the team closest to their favorite mall. Either way, when you have never watched that specific sport your entire life, then you start posting things, repeatedly, about how you're so happy they've won, yet you can't name one player on the team. You are a bandwagon fan.

Like, OMG, the Giants just won! That guy with the long hair threw the ball really fast, yay! Bandwagon fan!
