For me, I wanted to have a second team to root for besides my local team since my dad liked two teams. That holiday, I got Backyard Football with Donovan McNabb on the cover and it happened to include the Texans. I loved the logo and the team ever since, and over the years grew to love the underdog that the Texans seem to always find themselves to be.
While I haven’t gone to a game yet, I plan to soon. I’ve only heard legendary things about the food outside of the stadium and the loud fans.
Is anyone else a long-distance fan?
Lived in Michigan in 2002 and was just starting to get into football. I wasn’t interested in being a Lions fan.
Turned on ESPN, and they mentioned that this was the Texans’ inaugural year.
It was technically my inaugural year as a football fan so I decided to pick them as my team.
