10 Top Celebrity Ranked Sports Fans

1. Spike Lee

The Do The Right Thing producer/director has been part of the Knicks’ sidelines for so long that he’s seemingly part of the game at times. Sure, that can get a bit annoying. But why bother arguing with the officials when a famous director will do it for you? And it’s not just games. Lee even finds his way into press conferences at times, which might be a little strange, but is a greater length than some of the most dedicated fans would ever go to.

2. Jack Nicholson

Points for: Also will argue with officials and being synonymous with the Lakers’ sideline for decades.

Negatives? Once joked in frustration about giving away his tickets in the middle of a rough season.

3. Ashley Judd

She’s a frequent and loud presence in the stands of Kentucky basketball games and — at least according to her social media — does a decent job of keeping up with the team during the off-season.

4. Billy Crystal

Yes, times have gotten a bit better. But we’ll leave you with this from a 2006 New York Times article.

The Clippers are mostly young andunder contract, and they could be better than the Lakers for several more years. But that will still not change certain realities.

“This will always be a Laker town,” Crystal said. “We’re going to the second round of the playoffs, but look what’s up there.”

He pointed to the 14 Lakers championship banners and seven retired Lakers jerseys in the rafters. There are also banners for the city’s WNBA, NHL and Arena Football League teams.

It was suggested that the Clippers could raise a banner commemorating their first-round victory.

“Put something up there,” Crystal replied. “Staple a piece of matzo with a Clipper on it, something.”

That’s right. Billy Crystal is famous enough to be able to score tickets at a Lakers game likely any time he wants. But he chose the Clippers — even before they showed any glimmer of hope.

5. 2 Chainz

The Hawks even made him CEO for a day.

6 (tie). Usher

Such a fan of the Cavaliers that he’s a part-owner of the team.

6 (tie). Justin Timberlake

Same as Usher.

7. Drake

Look, Drake is a far from perfect fan. He hangs out with the other team. His heckling just gets him strange looks from opponents. He doesn’t show up to games as regularly as he perhaps should. But in the end, there’s no bigger profile fan of late than the musician who not only is a fan as a job with the Raptors but also is foolish enough to wear Kentucky t-shirts into a Texas locker room.
