Baseball fandom has its legends, and few are as storied or impactful as Florida State University's "Animals of Section B." Johnny Mac pulls back the curtain on this 47-year tradition that's become the heartbeat of Seminole baseball.From their strategic K-Time chants that rattle opposing batters to the mysteriously effective fifth-inning rendition of "O Canada" that began during the 1988 Winter Olympics, these superfans have created quantifiable home-field advantage. The NCAA has even verified that FSU players perform better and opponents struggle when the Animals are in full force – proof that passionate fans can literally change the game.The Animals represent something increasingly rare in modern sports – an organic, authentic fan culture that transcends generations. They've traveled to Omaha for College World Series appearances, brought their energy to away games nationwide, and welcomed countless children into their section to create the next generation of superfans. As Johnny explains their philosophy: "It's only weird if it doesn't work."Whether you're a baseball enthusiast, a student of fan culture, or simply appreciate the ways communities form around shared passions, this conversation captures the magic that happens when dedication meets tradition. Ready to experience it yourself? As Johnny assures listeners, all are welcome in Section B – just show up and join the fun.
