Interesting story about a "super fan" who has followed the New York Knicks NBA team all over the USA and to London, despite the Knicks having a pathetically miserable record this season. He's spent over $30k USD so far, and on a recent trip to London found some solace with some fellow fans:

"In London, he will attend his first English Premier League football match at his adopted team of Tottenham Hotspur on Saturday. "I ended up choosing the team most like the Knicks," Doyle explains. "They are from a big city, but have a history of disappointment. There's something that resonated with me in that."
Misery loves company...
