Year after year, fans of the Cleveland Browns prove why they are the best in the NFL. Browns fans have had very little to cheer about for about two decades until Andrew Berry and Kevin Stefanski took them on a playoff ride in 2020.
What may be hard for folks from outside of the Cleveland fanbase to know is that what they saw from the fans in 2020 and already in 2021 is not unusual. The only difference is what the fans get to be passionate about. In the past, that passion was directed at who the next GM, next coach, next “quarterback of the future” or even owner might be.
Starting quite early on Saturday, Browns fans started lining up to get into the “Muni Lot” to tailgate before the team’s 2021 home opener. While that parking lot has a ban on alcohol, which was reiterated by the city’s police force this week, it has long been the biggest party before games.
Fans of other tailgating setups might argue that the “Muni Lot” is the biggest but not the best but it is clear that the fans are dedicated. Around 8 PM on Saturday night, the following video shows what is described as a 2.5 mile stretch of cars waiting to get into the lot in the morning:
You might remember when Browns fans tailgated before Jarvis Landry’s charity softball event earlier this summer, proving their uniqueness.
Tonight’s video just reminds the NFL of one thing: No one ‘fans’ like Browns fans ‘fan.’
