The countdown to NFL Kickoff is on, and the return of football means the NFL Fan of the Year Contest presented by Captain Morgan is back for 2023! The NFL and Captain Morgan are teaming up again to find football fanatics who support their squad, inspire community impact, and spice up the game all season long.

We’re looking for extraordinary fans who bring passion, energy, and a little extra spice to their fandom and their community. Last year’s contest found fans of all 32 teams from around the country, each with a unique story and their own special spice that fuels their fandom and makes gameday even greater for everyone around them.

Think you or someone you know is worthy of the honor?

We’re looking for true fans who don’t just love their team—they live their fandom every day.

Fans whose passion for the game and connection to the home team helps rally their friends and family while making a positive impact that goes beyond the stadium.

Fans who use football as a platform to make a difference, and lead a life that inspires others to get involved and contribute to their community.

Fans who go big at home and turn gameday into a football extravaganza that brings the whole neighborhood together each and every Sunday.


Most of all, the Fan of the Year is someone who always spices up the game in a unique and fun way. The 2023 NFL Fan of the Year Contest presented by Captain Morgan kicks off with Back Together Weekend on July 29, 2023—when teams are back in training camp and fans are getting ready to grab their jerseys, paint their faces, and support their favorite squad. Head to NFL.com/FanOfTheYear to submit your entry and highlight how you or your #FanOfTheYear nominee supports their team, encourages others to get involved in the community and love the game just as much as they do. 

Each of the 32 NFL teams will select one #FanOfTheYear nominee to celebrate throughout the season, with prizes including team merch, gameday tickets, and access to the Super Bowl LVIII Fan Experience during Super Bowl Week in Las Vegas. One of those 32 nominees will be crowned the 2023 NFL Fan of the Year presented by Captain Morgan on stage at NFL Honors, the NFL’s primetime award special, presented LIVE from Las Vegas.

Submissions for the 2023 NFL Fan of the Year presented by Captain Morgan contest open on July 29, 2023, so get creative and make sure to spice up your nomination to showcase who you think is the ultimate NFL fan.
