They are called fans, short for fanatics, but their devotion to a particular sport, team, or individual can make a big difference to the participants.

The Greater Binghamton area has been blessed with professional baseball and hockey and semi pro football, college and high school basketball.

Both men and woman have played and competed in and around the city of Binghamton since the early 20^th century.

There are many cities and towns across our nation who have never experienced a professional team in their backyard.

Binghamton has been represented very well throughout the years and I think one of the main reasons is the community devotion and fan loyalty that comes from this area.

We have had so many professional versions of Baseball, Hockey, Basketball and Football, and when teams leave its almost always because of budget and league reconstruction, but I don’t believe fan loyalty was ever in question. Binghamton has the best fans.
