Didn’t watch much basketball growing up, so no one.

What makes you think we aren't loyal?

We're a small fanbase that has been completely loyal even when the franchise doesn't deserve our loyalty.

Because we have had three star players. Two of them forced their way out to Los Angeles. The third tried to do the same thing and we said "frick that shite."

I mean if you’re still calling yourself a Pels fan at this point, then by definition you’re loyal

I am 30 years old. The Hornets/Pelicans came to New Orleans when I was 13 years old.


I didn't have a team before that

This has been a issue that was more prevalent in the past but getting better. Anyone who was a real fan wouldn’t have dropped their old team when the Pels moved here. They woulda kept their old team So most of their fans were new to basketball or real casual fans. And it showed up in their takes. You can def still see it some. But admittedly it is getting better.

I was a Jr in HS when they moved here. Before that I was a Spurs fan - Admiral and Timmy D are my 2 favorite players of all time.

I enjoyed the Rockets run as a small lad in between the Bulls' dominance, but I really never became a fan. Still have my Rookie Tim D and Admiral Dream Team jersey somewhere.


Once we got the Hornets I was a loyal fan, but I will always have a soft spot for the Spurs

It’s because ever since they’ve been here, which isn’t a very long time, the front office has been an absolute disgrace. From the complete and total failure of the Chris Paul situation, where Paul actually did everything he could to work with the club, to the situation we have now. All you need to know about the Pels front office is the Solomon Hill contract, this is a microcosm of the front office operations ever since they arrived.
