The New York Jets have been nominated in FanSided’s “Fandom 250”  which ranks all the major fandoms across sports, politics, authors, and so much more.

When FanSided announced they were ranking all the major fandoms across the globe, it’s hard to imagine such a list without the New York Jets on it. Thankfully, the Jets have made the cut and now we wait to see where exactly they finally rank. Besides having one of the most iconic players to ever play the game in Joe Namath, the Jets, believe it or not, do bring much happiness to fans all across the globe.

While some may believe it’s mostly heartache, the Jets do indeed hold a soft spot in the hearts of many that bleed Gang Green. Fans of the Jets, collectively known as Jets Nation, are indeed a strong and passionate bunch.

It’s not easy rooting for this team in the grand scheme of things. Similar to a roller coaster in a theme park, there are plenty of ups and downs, well, mostly downs, but we continue coming back for more. We’ll always root for our team through thick and thin since one of these days, it will all be worth it when everything comes together to deliver another championship.

Our tailgating is legendary and well, Jets Nation should hopefully rank pretty well in FanSided’s Fandom 250.
