Isn't the idea of fandom quite strange? The wikipedia definition is:
"A fan, sometimes also called aficionado or supporter, is a person with a liking and enthusiasm for something, such as a band or a sports team. Fans of a particular thing or person constitute its fanbase or fandom."
I get it, I'm a 'fan' of a lot of things: bands, a football team, books and movies, but some people take it so much further than that. I met a guy who is a huge Star Wars fan and he is pretty hardcore, but then I heard about some people who take it to a whole new level.

It's not just a matter of having the most exclusive special edition movie boxset and a few action figures and lego star wars sets, these guys have it tattooed on their bodies, they learn how to speak Wookie and all sorts!
