What’s up, Elmonters! This week has been designated fan week, as I have a handful of interviews with different accounts within the Islanders community, including some fans who live outside of the United States in Canada, to learn about their origin story.
Up first is Miranda Patterson, a die-hard Islanders fan from Australia who shares her story about how she discovered the Islanders, why she chose the Islanders as their team, and the power that social media plays for fans who live outside the United States and Canada.
You can follow Miranda on X at @mirandap1996, and you can follow her Australia Meetup Group at @nyiaussiemeetup.
Let’s get to her story, shall we?
