Top 5 Celebrity NFL Fans
Feb. 7 2022, Published 3:01 p.m. ET
With Super Bowl LVI taking place in Los Angeles, we're going to see tonnes of famous fans in the stands, so Dimers.com has produced a list of the top five celebrity NFL super fans, with actors, athletes and musicians making the list.
5. Chris Pratt – Seattle Seahawks
The only Marvel star that makes this list here, the Star Lord actor is a long-heralded fan of the Seattle Seahawks.
Asked about why he was such a passionate Seahawks fans, Chris Pratt once said: “They’re solid Americans who lead by example. Because Russell Wilson goes to Seattle Children’s Hospital every Tuesday. And because they’re a dominant football force that puts team first!”
The first time we really saw Chris Pratt was a big-time football fan was in Parks and Recreation, where Pratt's character Andy Dwyer got to catch a touchdown pass from Andrew Luck.
In one scene you'll also see Rob Lowe (more on him below) who is the only actual Colts fan out of the actors featured.
4. Lindsey Vonn – Denver Broncos
One of the most famous Winter Olympians of all time, Lindsey Vonn is also well-known for being a massive Denver Broncos fan.
Vonn once revealed that her passion for the Broncos also provided her with some solid inspiration: "I do take some from them. I've trained a couple times up in Los Angeles with some of the football players, and Von Miller was there, too."
"It's just interesting for me to see what they do. It's different obviously. Different sports, but they're strong and I want to be stronger and so I just try to learn what I can and see if there's anything I can take away from it. I definitely took some exercises from their program and implemented it into mine. I definitely learned some stuff," she said back in 2016.
Although she's not competing at the current Beijing Olympics (she retired in 2019 due to injuries), the three-time Olympic gold medalist will be at the front of a lot of people's minds as the events go on.
Vonn was once spotted at a Broncos home game with another famous face, Tiger Woods.
3. LeBron James – Dallas Cowboys/Cleveland Browns
One of the most famous athletes in the world in his own regard, and a Dimers.com favorite, LeBron James has never shied away from his love of football.
As a Cleveland Cavaliers legend, LeBron has long shown love for the Browns, but is seen by many as a Cowboys fan, and has also showed up at a few Rams games this season.
LeBron was of course also a talented football player in his own right, having been offered a fresh start in the NFL (by the Cowboys and Seahawks) during the famous NBA lockout of 2011.
"Jerry Jones offered me a contract, and actually Pete Carroll in Seattle did as well during our lockout time," said James.
"Definitely got my blood flowing again, got my mind racing again about the game of football, being out there on Sundays.
"I wanted to be a red-zone specialist, like Gronk," he added.
2. Kendrick Lamar – Los Angeles Rams
This year's halftime show is set to feature Dr Dre, Snoop Dogg, Eminem, Mary J Blige, and Kendrick Lamar.
Kendrick Lamar is the most intriguing from a football fandom perspective, with the Humble rapper a big Rams fan in his own right.
The Pulitzer-winning rapper not only performed at the Rams' home opener in 2018, but he was also seen running routes on the Rams practice field in 2016.
If there's a tight halftime scoreline, hopefully that doesn't impact on Kendrick's performance on the stage, there will only be a few billion people watching!
Come to think of it – we’re going to put in a call to Dimers.com to see if we can get some live probabilities on the likelihood of the 34-year-old fluffing his lines if the Rams are trailing at half time. Just kidding!
1. Rob Lowe – Indianapolis Colts
Who else was ever going to be number one other than the man wearing a hat branded by the entire league itself?
Rob Lowe went viral when wearing this hat, opting to root for the entire NFL rather than a single team (although he is a huge Colts fan, as mentioned above) – something Dimers.com has dined out on too!
Despite that agnostic hat, Lowe is no casual fan! He would be seen at every game during the Colts' Super Bowl run with Peyton Manning. And you just know he will be in the stands next year if the Colts happen to make a run. He is often spotted in his Colts merch around Hollywood, too – this guy is the definition of a mega fan.
