Banjo Man: number one Niner fan

pannin4gold · 2009-10-03T17:42:24-07:00

I haven't been to a regular season Niner game in a year, and when I went to a pre-season game this year, I didn't see Banjo Man. Does he still do his thing at the games? I hope so, because Banjo Man is best side event I've ever seen at the stick! I've been going to a game or two almost ever year since the '80s and I always remember seeing him. I'm pretty sure he just walks around the stadium throughout the game with that awesome outfit stummin' his banjo and yelling, "We're number one!" What dedication, they should retire his cape when he ever stops doing it. Anyone ever talk to that dude? Someone told me he goes to As games as well. Anyone know if that is true? I saw him over the summer at the Oregon Country fair - a BIT of a different scene then an NFL football game - and I asked him how the Niners were going to do this year. "We'll do fine if Hill starts." he said. So far, so good Banjo Man. "Go Niners! We're Number 1" 2001 season against the aints. [ Edited by pannin4gold on Oct 3, 2009 at 17:43:53 ]

I gave him a ride out of the parking lot one game and he fired up the stinkiest spiff I ever smelled. He didn't smell too hot either

If you had been doing it for the past 20 years, through the most dominant dynasty in sports, and you were as likeable as banjo man, then yeah.
