what does it mean to stan a group
Fan (person) A stan is a particularly (perhaps excessively) avid fan and supporter of a celebrity, TV show, group, or a film or film series. The object of the stan's affection is often called their "fave". Based on the 2000 song "Stan" by American rapper Eminem,[13] the term has frequently been used to describe artist devotees whose fanaticism matches the severity of the obsessive character in the song. The word has been described as a portmanteau of "stalker" and "fan".[14] A website known as "Stan Wars" or "stanipedia" sprouted up to host discussions and flame wars between rival fanbases.[15]
