Foreign Fan

Hey there,

I’ve recently read some things about how ‘choosing a team’ is what a ‘poser’ would do or that you should always support your local club to have the connection. I have personally been a fan and have been following since 2020 even though I have no connection to the club ( family wise or living there ). Living in Australia most people here support a traditional ‘big club’ whether they are connected through family or chose to ‘glory hunt’ and support Man City or Bayern ( and also A-League ). I’ve always loved German football culture and love a team with a storyline like VfB and was the reason I ‘chose’ to support Stuttgart. It is my dream to visit Neckarstadion on day and be in the Cannstatter Kurve one day.

Tl;dr: Is it frowned upon that I support VfB because I chose the club even though I have no connection to the club?

Thank you!
