[QUIZ]Do you belong on the Arizona Cardinal bandwagon?

by bobman024 on Jan 15, 2009 1:28 PM MST

With the Cardinals new found success, things seem to be getting a little crowded around here. With that in mind, those of us at Fanster.com thought that fans should have to take the Arizona Cardinals Bandwagon Placement Test to determine just where they fit in, and how well they know their Arizona Cardinals. This test is designed to determine if you’re a long-suffering Cardinal fan who baked on the metal benches at Sun Devil Stadium, or a Johnny-come-lately doesn’t remember life before a state-of-the-art home field advantage. Either way, welcome! Enjoy, and maybe we’ll see you on the Bandwagon.

Only had 12 out of 15 (without looking up the answers)

I’m a “die-hard” by the test’s scoring, but I think I should have had them all. :(

Apparently im welcomed back from the 1998 season. Even though I’ve only been “hard core” for the last 6 years.

But definitely guessed on a few.

9\15 I thought for sure Hawk would get all of them.

Who would win in a fight, Whisenhunt or a Hurricane?
Hold on, hold on, what if the Hurricanes name was Whisenhunt?
Daaaaaaaaaa Cards, Da Cards Da Cards Da Cards Da Cards!!!

11/15 Gotta get out my Larry Centers jersey and get ready to rock

I knew all those times sweating on those benches would pay off some day!

11 for 15

Not too bad for a somewhat ‘newbie’ Cardinal fan. I guessed on a few too.

I just wish I knew which ones I missed…

Not too upset with myself. I’ve only been a diehard for the past 8 years or so and I’m not too big on the history aspects of my teams with the exception of the Kings.

Who did the Kings play in their first game in Sacramento?

I was really up on the Kings until a few years back. I got fed up with the agony of losing in the playoffs after a rigorous 82-game season. 16-game seasons are better for my health. :P

Or are you talking about the Seals that moved to LA and changed their name?

10/15 - Mainly from reading your posts!

I’ve only been a hardcore fan for three years.

2 out of 15

yeah…I’m definitely just a bandwagoner. really, i’m a chiefs fan. but considering the season they had, i’ve picked up the cardinals as my team to root for in the playoffs. i like warner a lot. plus- you guys are lucky to have 2 stud recievers.

there must have been some fun games to watch this past season.

Welcome aboard!

Plenty of room aboard this wagon; besides, the Cards are in the NFC so your allegiance to the Chiefs isn’t in jeopardy. Could we borrow Tony Gonzalez for a couple of games though?

The Cards bandwagon may be old (it’s a ‘47) and hasn’t had new tires since ‘74 but we swept out the bed in ’98. Hope you don’t mind.

9/15

Tough test. But that acted like the Cardinals don’t have an additional seven decades of torture on their resume. Want to see what you know about the Cardinals? Take the test at http://metsilverman.com/ (No registration. Prizes for the highest score.) Be the first on your bandwagon to use Ernie Nevers in a sentence.

Welcome East Coast!

It is pretty hard. Its also not that hard to ignore the teams of the 90’s.

I’m actually pretty pleased with that.

An Indy fan here…since we’re out of it now, and you have Edge, I must root for you guys. Plus, I’ve always liked Kurt Warner.

Another Colts fan

But I only got 3-15, and I’m pretty sure that’s because I had a 25% shot at getting each question right. I sincerely knew the answers to absolutely NONE of them. That said – good luck!!!

I was born a Redskins fan and I’ll die a Redskins fan. Lemme get that out of the way. However, I first moved to Arizona in ‘92 and have followed the Cards since Dave McGinnis’ first year, and have always considered them my second NFC team — especially when they play the Cowboys. I used to explain this with, “Ideally, every year in the NFC Championship, the Redskins would play the Cardinals, and each would win the conference championship and then Super Bowl on alternating years.”

So, can I jump on the bandwagon? I kinda feel like that makes me the very definition of a bandwagon fan….
