A premaure stomach ulcer,heart condition and nervous twitch from the extreme roller coaster highs and lows.....
That and a true test of character building that will either make or break the strongest spirit

Being a Saint means dealing with the ever constant "how many premierships have saints one?" remark that you can never really offer a smart, successful come back to.
Being a Saint means being able to apreciate the little things like a super mark or supurb run down as many of us are yet to experience the glory of a flag. I rekon other clubs take these little highlights for granted but for me it's what makes going to the footy so special.
Being a Saint means i've had the privlidge of watching Robert Harvey my whole life time and that to me is next best thing to a flag. An out and out legend is our banger.
Being a Saint offers a mixture of highs and lows but i wouldn't have it any other way. go saints.

It means not having to follow the other 15 teams...
Collingwood: over hyped - underperformed
Carlton: Cheating scum
Essendon: Lloyd
Bulldogs: Too similar to us, so why change?
Hawks: Team colours
Tigers: Hopeless
Melbourne: Nuff said
North: Like an actor in a B grade westerm - get shots but takes a while to finally die / Brayshaw
Port: Sth Australians
Adelaide: 1997 / see above
Freeo: even more painful than following the saints. Take the term "rabble" to new heights.
WCE: too many reasons to mention here
Cats: well they beat us to a flag
Lions: respect, but just can't bring myself to swapping for them.
Swans: Too many saints rejects playing for them![Very Happy :D](./images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif)

The lid is off after Round 2! Enjoy the journey, coz you just don't know where we'll end up. Live for today and seize the moment.

Passionate, exciting, experienced the highs and lows
colourful and loud

You cannot be a St Kilda fan if you are not loyal.
Also a great amount of patience and fortitude are required, aint no fans like St Kilda fans

Being a saint fan means:
Sacrfices for your team (even if that includes your mental health)
Alcohol - cos you need it to celebrate a win, or to drown a loss
Intelligence - to be able to understand our coach, our board, our fans, and to be able to keep up with posters in saintsational!
Never ending supply of peroxide - well in the 80's any way
Trevor Barker - the only name that truly embellishs and totally sums up what being a Saint is - only person who's name can be held at the same height Robert Harvey!
Well at least I had a crack - lol another trait that is ingrained in saints supporters LOL
Cheers

I can sympathize with all you die-hard saints fans out there . We've had our fair share of kicks in the guts & successes have been few & far between . The one thing we can all rely on is no matter how frustrated & how disapointed we get with the way the saints are travelling we still find the stregnth to do it all again next week. I've been traumatised , delusional & even suicidal after some of our efforts ,but the thought of one of our boys lifting that cup on the last day of September is enough to unite us all. Yes we are a rare breed hopefully good things come to those who wait.
