The Orange County otters fanbase is one of the most of the most dedicated and committed in the entire league. every game is packed full and sold out in entirety by roaring fans hoping for the incoming otter slaughter. Their dedicated fanbase shows as they went 6-1 in the regular season at home, tied for first in the entire league which contrasts with their mediocre 3-4 record on the road. They sadly dont have home field going into the playoffs which would definitely help the otters be more confident about beating the outlaws who's beaten them twice as home. The otters fanbase does travel well, they'll be definitely filling up the outlaws stadium. Not like the outlaw fans would have. Most players have taken the time to tell otter TV about how nice the stadium in santa Clara is, it's vibrant and adds a whole new dimension to the game. The fanbase also chants "otter slaughter" and "we otter win" at key 4th downs and when the opposing team has the ball in the 4th quarter. Nobody wants to play in orange county against the best defensive team in the nsfl history. The fans will only grow past the otters first season in the nsfl

Wraiths fans have a tradition before every game of going out in to the Canadian wilderness and finding themselves. Fans usually go out in groups of 20 or more to the nearby forests, or on the frozen lakes during the dead of and start a bonfire, and begin telling ghost stories to each other. After the first few ghost stories, the elder of the group will produce the mushrooms they carried with them and pass them around to the whole group. As the journey begins, more and more ghost stories are told and the unmistakable aura of the wraith settles in.

People say the feeling of the wraith is faint at the beginning of the season while the days are still long, but as the playoffs get closer and closer, and the days start turning into nights, the power of the wraith takes hold of the city and the people. During the first weeks of the season, many people experience visions of their loved ones or the local animals, such as the lovable beaver or intimidating gray wolf. However, the closer it gets to winter more and more visions incorporate the wraith in them. These range from simple anthropomorphism of the local mammals and the wraith, to full fledged visions of the wraith instructing you on your life's journey and purpose.

In the early twilight of game day, the visions fade and the group collectively share a moment. They are emboldened, ready to cheer on their wraiths, knowing their purpose and their future path.

With a citywide population of only 19,000 Yellowknife fans are used to being outnumbered at Burial Ground, their home stadium which seats 66,000. Even including travelling Wraiths fans, at any given sell-out game at least half of the fans are likely to be there for the away team.

After the singing of both national anthems - with no Canadian competition, the Star Spangled Banner and O Canada are sung at all games - Wraiths fans will stand up and bunch up together, both symbolically standing together in a mass of grey and blue bodies over multiple layers of flannel and lycra and practically staying together for heat - the warmest day in football season is 60 degrees (15 celsius), and the average temperature at kickoff during week 1 is 45 (9 celsius).

This can often create a clear separation between the Yellowknife faithful - the fans who are used to the team’s traditions and attend every game - from the bandwagon travelling fans. Success breeds love, and as the only team north of Maryland, Wraiths games are frequently filled with Canadians, especially travelling up from Vancouver, Calgary, and Edmonton, and the difference between the travelling fans and the locals is stark - southern Canadians are less likely to want to huddle up because of how awkward the concept is.

Although the Mongeese may just be a prospect team, they certainly have the best fans in the world. Mongeese fans are very superstitious. Every day, during tailgate parties, they burn Sun Tropics flags, and spit on Sun Tropics jerseys. Yes, these fans are certainly diehard! It’s been noticed that the fans have begun to pick some favorite players. They love the big defensive lineman, Bork Bjornsson and everything about him. They love all 330 pounds of them! They’re eager to buy his #98 jersey, as it’s the top seller. However, fans are also fond of quarterback Logan Ryder, who’s shown some promise and had his ups and downs early on. Mongoose fans have begun to notice that their games are particularly low scoring, and credit that to the iron-nosed defense. As they say, defense wins championships. They’re interested to see where all their favorites go in the S2 draft, coming up this offseason. It is certain to say the Mongeese have some of the best fans (even if they’re just prospect teams!). They wish the best for these young players as they enter the league, hopefully many of them being selected in the draft. And just a reminder, Go Mongeese!

When people think of Legions, most of the thoughts go towards the Byzantine empire. Perhaps more commonly known as the Roman empire, they left a storied legacy of architecture, disciplined soliders and civilizing barbaric cultures. While all of these activities are something the fans can't really do during the game the do understand where the background of where the Legion is coming from. So what, can I ask, could people do to represent the Byzantine empire in a meaningful way? Costumes, of course! Our fans almost always come decorated in all forms of attire from that era straight from the streets of the Vegas Strip. While some of the costumes are, to put it kindly, absolutely ridiculous, others are extremely well done. Several chants and shouts go up but none of them are particularly clever at the moment. Cries of "Go Legion!" and "Fuck the Otters!" or "Long live Varga!" are about all they have going for them now. Our fans are incredible people who work hard for a living and when they blow off steam they scream with all their might in the incredible empty parking lot stadium! This is just while the team scours the area looking for a stadium in which they can actually play.

The San Jose Sabercats had a rough season, going 4-10, but it didn't deter their die hard fans from selling out every home game. They are clamoring for more success and they do everything they can to help the team on the field. Before every game, home and away, they have a tradition to "paint the town green and gold." They do this by from town to town in the surrounding San Jose area and throw green and gold streamers anywhere and everywhere. It may not be received well by non-fans of the team, due to the need for cleaning up, but the fans have fun with it and more times than not you will see them cleaning up once the games are over. Not only pre game do they have a community based ritual but on every 3rd down while on defense one side of the stadium chants "Saber" and the other follow suits with the chant "Cats" and then all together they chant a loud rawr just before the play is ran. Many fans have their own traditions and pre game rituals as well but the community based ones help bring everyone together for one common cause. Root on the Sabercats and hope for future success. It takes a lot to continue these weekly rituals when your team goes 4-10 and misses the playoffs but San Jose is a passionate fan base and they are fully dedicated to the team.
