Oklahoma City Thunder: They love this team

So
me have already come and gone — "Gods of Thunder,” where are you? — but these four appeared early on and have become fixtures at the Ford Center.

All of them have different reasons for taking their fandom to a higher level, but in the end, it all boils down to one common denominator.

They love the Thunder.

Remember, this is a team that hasn’t always been lovable. Even when this squad stumbled often and struggled mightily early on, these fans found reason to not only cheer but also commit.

Talk about being super fans.

Not surprisingly, none of them have any plans to retire their costumes or shelf their props just because the Thunder is revealing its mascot this week.

The way they see it, now they have a little more help.

Do you know a Thunder super fan?

The Thunder is on a mission to determine its ultimate fan.

As part of the Love’s Ultimate Thunder Fan promotion, one person has been selected fan of the game at every Wednesday home game since the beginning of the season. The final fan of the game will be chosen March 4. Then the next day, voting for the eight semifinalists will begin at thunder.nba.com.

The four finalists will be revealed at the Chicago game on March 18, and the finalist who receives the biggest ovation from the crowd that night will win.

The grand prize: an all-expenses-paid trip to Boston to see the Thunder play the Celtics.
