Miami Dolphins’ oldest fan, pioneering nurse Willie Porter dies at 105

[DKphin]

My Grandmother was 94 when she passed and she was the one that got me to follow the Phins at a young age. I would have been a Bears fan if I had listened to my father because that was my Dad's team. I credit alot of misery in my life to her, but I loved her very much.

Willie Pearl Porter was the oldest living Dolphins fan in Miami when she met one of the players when she was 101. In this Dec. 11, 2012, photo, Porter, left, thanks Reshad Jones for the visit and the signed jersey. Dolphins safety Jones visited Porter and her family at their Liberty City home in Miami. Porter, who died at 105, had season tickets since the team’s inception in 1966. CARL JUSTE MIAMI HERALD File Photo

Neat story, hell she may have been one of the oldest NFL fans in general. 105 is quite the feat! Look at that bad ass rocking her Ricky jersey. Reshad being a class act too
