Title Description Why do people care about the outcome of a game they're not playing themselves? And what does it mean that so many people care so much? Warren St. John decided to find out by joining a group where the particulars of the fan psyche would show themselves in sharp relief: the caravan of hundreds of RVs that follow the Alabama Crimson Tide across the South, taking over college towns with a moveable feast of Weber grills, karaoke machines, Igloo coolers, and fast-draining liquor bottles. RAMMER JAMMER YELLOW HAMMER offers not a locker-room view, but a seat in the bleachers, stadium parking lots and in the inner lives of fans (not to mention their RVs). Drawing on psychological and sociological research on fandom, this is not just a travel story, but a cultural anthropology of fans. Recommendations Customers who ordered this book also ordered: 1.
