Diehard Angels Fans

Angels fans, who are notorious for being crazy, die-hard, and extremely loyal, will be happy to know their team will be playing games at home for the next four days, including today. The Angels game against the Boston Red Sox today, and the Oakland A's for the next 3 days, will definitely be a breath of fresh air for Angels fans all over the South. Both those who will be at the game with their home-made signs, to the people at home watching or listing in their proudest Angels gear, the Angels will have tons of support. Angels fans have created quite a reputation for themselves in the past and they're likely to live up to it in the next for days. For instance, when the Angels broke the record of most club wins, with over 100, an overly-excited fan jumped onto the field in the middle of all the celebration and was tackled and brought down by security as the whole stadium looked on. Fights often break out between fans in the bleachers, prompting security intervention. Vernon Wells, an Angels player, even has a real-life stalker, who's supposedly 70 years old and wears a blond wig. The Angels can be sure they will have an abundance of fans pumping them up, inning to inning, and ruthlessly rooting for their team. Go Angels!
