Story time with Cleveland Browns superfan John Big Dawg Thompson

Superfan icon that sprang up long ago, was Cleveland’s own John Big Dawg Thompson. He is not the original character of the Cleveland Browns, but Big Dawg was certainly the most recognizable Superfan not just in Ohio, but in the entire NFL. It was just known among NFL film crews covering a Browns game to find Big Dawg and then give him plenty of air time.

[@JoeG-g1w]

Changed his legal name to big dawg….. fucking legend

[@neanderthalsnavel7411]

These guys, including the wolfman mask guy, brought in a "prop" dog house to the bleachers. It had a mini keg in it. Security noticed that multiple people carried it in and only one person carried it out. Uncle Art put a stop to it but they did it for weeks if not seasons before they were stopped. The Municipal Stadium bleachers were so much fun.

[@freshcoastfreak7408]

Please have Big Dawg on a few times a year for the old stories, talk about a plethora of history

[@edalexander6155]

Big Dawg needs to be given the honor of smashing the guitar 🎸 at the stadium every yr.

[@georgeblackwell4670]

[@neiltonkli]

Lost respect after he tried to protect Chad Johnson. Super fans are so corny. Maybe in the 90s but today it's kind of creepy
