Weird Al's Biggest Fan

Post by TMBJon »

I've seen a lot of people on WOWAY and elsewhere claim to be Weird Al's biggest fan.
Just wondering - who is Al's biggest fan?? :huh:

Is there like a score sheet? Do you tally up the points for different fan things you do? Like can you get +30 points just because you're a Yankochick? Does the number of concerts add or subtract points to your sheet depending on the equilibrium of which tours and how many concerts per tour etc? Following Al on social media websites? Anyway points sound fun!

Last I heard, Al's biggest fan was serving a long prison sentence...

That guy who won the Rock The House show was supposed to be the "biggest Weird Al fan"...

I think anyone with a Weird Al tattoo is an automatic finalist.
Oh by the way, I've cracked the code.

I'm pretty sure I sat next to Weird Al's biggest fan at my first Weird Al show. He practically crowded me off my folding chair.

Are we giving extra points for multiple concerts on the same tour?

This is so subjective though. I mean based on concerts Jeremy is gonna be up there, but he's not a collector of stuff as far as I'm aware. I buy a lot of stuff, records and things with mentions of Al, but don't go to close to the number of shows he has. Dave has pretty much everything that has a small tie to Al and goes to many more shows than I. Then you have to consider how often someone listens to an album. And is someone a bigger fan because they like the originals better than parodies? Or knowing all the words to OomO? It's really not something you can measure

Well, I used to google him daily (boy, that sounds dirty) to see if any new articles, websites or videos popped up. I have since given up on that practice due to lack of time and other conflicting interests (*coughcoughhusbandcoughcough*).

If you also consider "most miles flown for a Weird Al convention in which Weird Al wasn't even present", I'm way up there :P

Not to mention bonus points for meeting my spouse on a Weird Al message board (though there's a bunch of us in here with those bonus points as well)

Then again, I don't have any Weird Al tattoos
