What A Fan and Lowell Moore Hit Orlando

Sports fans from around the World have been supporting sports organizations, teams and athletes they admire for generations. This year in Orlando Florida What A Fan will celebrate the American Sports Fans! August 30th through September 1st Central Florida’s popular International Drive will be transformed into the Worlds largest tailgate party. Businesses all along the I-Drive strip will pay tribute to sports fans of the NFL, NBA, MLB, NHL, NCAA, MLS and Nascar attending from around the globe. We have for decades watched sporting events on tv or in person and there they and passionate sports fans have always been there in all their glory cheering loud and proud adding an atmosphere and providing an energy the crowd and athletes feed off of…. Labor Day Weekend that same compassionate expression will be all about the fans, Central Florida will show attending fans just how much they are appreciated.

In our efforts to organize an event the size of this it takes a lot of special people to help make it happen, we’d like to thank the folks at Miller Coors for all their support. Several companies have joined What A Fan to honor sports fans with a weekend of fantastic festivities including; Ale House, Wet-N-Wild, Buffalo Wild Wings, Ripley’s Believe It Or Not, Visit Orlando, Senor Frogs, Orlando Predators, Orlando City Soccer, Orlando Monarchs, Kings Bowl, Victory Casino Cruise, Florida Helicopter Charters and BB Kings. There’s a popular saying my grandmother used, it takes a village to raise a child. We feel the same way about the Sports Fan Conference, it requires the support of many people all working collectively to pay tribute to a particular segment of the sports industry that is as important as the games themselves…
