Viral Chargers fan is from Minnesota, still loves the Vikings
Marriane Do is the Los Angeles Chargers fan who went viral after ESPN's cameras featured her intense reactions during the Monday night game between the Chargers and Cowboys. It turns out that she's not just a Chargers fan; she also loves the Vikings.
While most of the internet was trying to figure out if she was a paid actor (she's not), a photo from Do's past revealed her wearing an Adam Thielen Vikings jersey with purple face paint. And eventually, after appearing on The Pat McAfee Show and becoming a social media darling of the Chargers, she confirmed to TMZ Sports that she is from Minnesota.
“I grew up in Minnesota before moving to California almost 20 years ago,” Do told TMZ. “I don’t think you have to be a single-team fan. I love my Chargers and I’m not gonna deny my Vikings. At the end of the day, yes, I’ve been a Vikings fan, I’ve been through that journey as a Vikings fan and still am, but I’m here in L.A. for the past 20 years.”
There you have it. She's not a paid actress or fake fan. She's just like all the other diehard football fans who live and die with every play. For Do, however, she's a fan of two teams that have never won the Super Bowl and are known for disappointing on the big stage -- just like the Chargers did Monday night and like the Vikings hope to avoid this coming Monday when they host the 49ers.
