- 1978: Meet the Fins' Full-Throated Fan
Ike Seamans narrates this profile of Dolfan Denny, aka Dennis Sym, who kept Fins fans frantic for more than thirty years at the Orange Bowl.
Syms was a fan from the first, unsettling neighboring spectators with his glittery gear and incessant shouting. Everyone agreed that a move to the sidelines would be best for Denny, the Dolphins, and everyone else.
So Denny led cheers from the four corners of the stadium, at first as a hobby, then with a nominal salary from the team. Dolfan Denny retired in 2000, driving a "Double D" Dodge Ram pickup truck -- a retirement present from the Dolphins -- into the sunset.

I remember seeing him in tv commercials.
