"Vastly entertaining and enlightening . . . Dohrmann gives soul to a much maligned and misunderstood aspect of sports." Publishers Weekly "A thought-provoking exploration of the weird, fascinating, and wonderful world of sports fans." Chris Ballard, senior writer, Sports Illustrated, author of One Shot at Forever "Superfans is utterly hilarious, but it's also the definitive anthropological dive into a form of mania that affects someone you love, if not you yourself." David Epstein, NY Times bestselling author of The Sports Gene "You've seen them screaming, paint covering their faces. But who are they? Why are they? And what do they mean for the rest of us? In Superfans, the great George Dohrmann breaks down the fanaticism with writing that is simultaneously uproarious and alarming. A terrific book." Jeff Pearlman, NY Times bestselling author of Gunslinger
