Everyone, we have a problem to address; people are getting Superfan and Johnny Buccaneer (the dancing guy) mixed up. I have heard and read several people commenting about JB dancing saying "oh hey there is Superfan!". No, that is a different guy. JB has an actual seat in the stands Superfan makes his home wherever he feels he is needed in the arena. The only time I saw Superfan this year was at the Chatt game (he may have went to more I just dont remember).

This is a serious issue that needs fixed. I am thinking next year there needs to be a PSA on the jumbotron to show fans the difference.

WCYB needs to be corrected too - http://www.wcyb.com/news/tennessee/johns.../354533227

I last saw Superfan at Brooks when the women's team hosted Chattanooga. He was dancing to the beat of his own drummer.

I haven't seen him at Freedom Hall, but my seats make it hard to see some areas.

I think I saw him in the upper level, maybe section 4 or 5? Late in the game it looked like him dancing in the aisle.

I have seen superfan roaming at quite a bit of the games. When three almost identical people are the most recognizable fans though you will get people mixing them up lol

I greatly admire the fact that they are "all-in." You won't find a self-conscious bone in their bodies.

I'd like to see a photo of both of them together — with Forbes in the middle.

Thanks, brock20, for bringing this important issue to the forefront.

Great thread. Bring back Pepper the Parrot for SoCon Tournament!

Johnny Buccaneer sits close to my seats and has been great all season. I see Superfan mostly at the women's games (including tonight) in the upper sections sort of off to himself doing his own thing. They are both amazing and the university should indeed find some way to recognize/reward their passion. Personally, I think we should give Johnny Buccaneer free season tickets right behind the opponent's bench. His comments during the game are absolutely hilarious and there is no way that opponents could not be impacted at least a little.

Did you guys see where a UNC fan was EJECTED for heckling Rick Pitino? Not sure what he said, but Pitino started giving it back to him and the fan was ejected. Roy Williams then apologized to Pitino for the fan's conduct. Must have been pretty bad.

The fan reportedly said "Pitino, you suck".

We'd lose half the crowd if they threw out people heckling Bob during a Mercer game.

Can't stand these regal coaches. If that's all he said to get kicked out, then he should have said something more for his money like

"Hey Pitino got a table for two?" or "What's the going rate for recruiting prostitutes?"

Pitino is as slimy as they come.

And for Roy Williams to take up for him, really? From a school that had fake classes for athletes yet nothing will ever be done to UNC.... or Williams.

I still think it is retarded fans can even get kicked out for small crap like that.
