A Pulitzer Prize–winning journalist pulls back the curtain on the extraordinary inner lives of America’s most obsessive sports fans. There are fans, and then there are fanatics. In this wondrously immersive look at American sports fandom, George Dohrmann travels the country to find out what distinguishes an ordinary, everyday enthusiast from that special breed of supporter known as the superfan. In Minnesota, Dohrmann meets newly minted generals of the Viking World Order, a Minnesota Vikings affinity group organized along military lines. In Oregon, he shares a few beers with a determined soccer fan who amassed—almost singlehandedly—a four-thousand-strong cheering section for the fledgling Portland Timbers. In Illinois, he talks with the parents of a five-year-old boy whose intense hatred of Tom Brady went viral on YouTube. Through these and other intimate profiles, Dohrmann shows us the human faces behind the colored face paint, the real people inside the elaborate costumes who prowl the stands and parking lots at stadiums from coast to coast. In addition to the fans themselves, Dohrmann also talks with the experts who study them. He uses the latest thinking in sports psychology—some of it learned during a spirited round of miniature golf with a group of professors at the annual Sports Psychology Forum—to unravel the answers to such burning questions as: How does fandom begin? What are its effects on everyday life? When does it go too far? For everyone who’s ever body-painted their torso with the team colors of their alma mater before heading off to a sports bar—or even just screamed at their television during the NBA Finals—Superfans offers an entertaining and insightful exploration of the many ways human beings find meaning in something bigger than themselves. Featuring photos of the Rally Banana, Timber Jim, the officers of the Viking World Order, a pair of Kentucky Wildcats tattoos, a Kevin Durant jersey torched by a jilted fan, and more. Plus analysis of the . . . Arizona State Sun Devils • Chicago Bears • Dallas Cowboys • Green Bay Packers • Indianapolis Colts • Milwaukee Brewers • Nebraska Cornhuskers • New England Patriots • Oklahoma City Thunder • Philadelphia Eagles • San Diego State Aztecs • Seattle Seahawks “Well reported and meticulously researched . . . Dohrmann is a respected, diligent sportswriter and has been so for years—you don’t get Pulitzers for message-board posts.”—The Wall Street Journal

Superfan Dedication explores the captivating world of extreme fandom, examining the psychological and social factors that drive individuals to dedicate themselves to a particular passion. This book delves into fan theories, obsessive collecting, and community movements, revealing how these activities fulfill fundamental human needs for connection and self-expression. One intriguing insight is how fan theories, often dismissed as mere speculation, actually represent deep engagement with media and foster vibrant online communities. Another area explored is the psychological reward derived from obsessive collecting, highlighting its impact on social dynamics. Using a blend of social science and psychology, the book analyzes group dynamics, social identity theory, and the impact of media culture to provide a nuanced perspective on the superfan phenomenon. It bridges disciplines like psychology, sociology, and media studies, offering a comprehensive understanding of individual psychological processes and broader social forces. Presenting evidence from sociological surveys, psychological case studies, and ethnographic observations, Superfan Dedication progresses from introducing core concepts to examining psychological drivers, social dimensions, and practical implications of understanding fandom. Ultimately, the book argues that extreme fandom is a normal and beneficial expression of human social and psychological needs, offering valuable insights into identity formation and community building. It aims to move beyond stereotypes, providing a balanced perspective on the motivations and experiences within fan communities, making it relevant to marketers, community organizers, and anyone curious about the superfan phenomenon.

Sheryl Sandberg’s Lean In is a massive cultural phenomenon and its title has become an instant catchphrase for empowering women. The book soared to the top of bestseller lists internationally, igniting global conversations about women and ambition. Sandberg packed theatres, dominated opinion pages, appeared on every major television show and on the cover of Time magazine, and sparked ferocious debate about women and leadership. Ask most women whether they have the right to equality at work and the answer will be a resounding yes, but ask the same women whether they'd feel confident asking for a raise, a promotion, or equal pay, and some reticence creeps in. The statistics, although an improvement on previous decades, are certainly not in women's favour – of 197 heads of state, only twenty-two are women. Women hold just 20 percent of seats in parliaments globally, and in the world of big business, a meagre eighteen of the Fortune 500 CEOs are women. In Lean In, Sheryl Sandberg – Facebook COO and one of Fortune magazine's Most Powerful Women in Business – draws on her own experience of working in some of the world's most successful businesses and looks at what women can do to help themselves, and make the small changes in their life that can effect change on a more universal scale.

Most people launch backwards—they build the product first, then scramble for attention. Smart creators do the opposite. Create Demand Before You Ever Launch reveals the exact strategy for generating buzz, building a warm audience, and stacking pre-sold interest before your product even goes live. You’ll learn how to create high-converting waitlists, write anticipation-building content, and cultivate a sense of urgency and desire—without faking scarcity or forcing hype. This book walks you step-by-step through the process of designing a launch that starts with listening—not guessing. You’ll identify the pain points your audience is already obsessing over, craft a no-brainer solution, and invite people in before they’ve even seen the offer. You’ll also uncover how to use simple landing pages, low-effort marketing assets, and authentic connection to grow a pool of hungry buyers who feel seen, heard, and ready to say yes. No more cold launches. No more lukewarm results. This is how you flip the script—so when you finally hit “go,” your audience is already waiting. Your launch becomes a confirmation, not a question. And your business starts growing from demand, not desperation. If you’re tired of launching into silence, it’s time to learn the strategy that makes people line up before you even open the doors.
