hardcore fan
Die-hard enthusiast type
A hardcore fan shows intense, unwavering devotion to a band, sports team, franchise, or other object of fandom.
Unlike casual fans, hardcore fans invest significant time, money, and emotional energy—attending every game, collecting memorabilia, mastering obscure trivia, or defending their passion against critics: Only hardcore fans camped out overnight for tickets.
