What is fairweathered fan?

A sports fan that never sticks with one team. His/her loyalty is always in question because he/she only pulls for the hot teams at that time.

Dylan was a Stanford fan last week but because they lost, he now pulls for Oklahoma State which makes him a Fairweather Fan.

His favorite team didn't Slang That Eppley so he is pulling for someone new today.

Fairweathered fan - what does it mean?

1. Describes a fanatic who celebrates extensively when their favorite sports team is doing well but lives almost hermit-like when their sports team is getting dominated

2. Liking a collegiate team in one sport and always claiming them as your team but supporting them in another sport ONLY when they're doing well.

That nigger Randy Russell claims he's a University of Florida fan in general, but he's never supported anything but their football team, that is, until their basketball team made the NCAA tournament; what a fairweathered fan that cocksucking monkeyfucker is.
