I don't understand the attachment a person has to a school they didnt attend. I do want to understand.
The list goes on and on and people have varying reasons. I don't believe there's a set list identifying "You can only be a true fan if you blah blah blah".
ETA: I'd say true fan hood is defined by how closely you keep up with your team, or university, participate in going to games/donating, and sticking with them through good seasons and bad.

I grew up in Baton Rouge and lived there until I was 18. I went to an out-of-state college because I wanted to experience something different. Now I live in Nashville, but still watch 70% of LSU baseball games, 100% of the basketball games, and 100% of the football games (make 3-5 a year in person). I am a diehard LSU fan and I never went there. Does this not count in your view?
