I honestly don't remember where I first heard the term, but I have heard fans of a college's sports who did not attend that college referred to as "Sidewalk Alumni." Just being honest, I am among the sidewalk alumni, having attended the University of Louisville.

Just curious how many actual tOSU alumni we have on the site and how many fellow sidewalk alumni hang out here. 

Also, do any actual alumni consider sidewalk alumni such as myself to be less of a fan than those who went to tOSU? I would disagree, but I'm curious to hear what y'all think.
