The Stars notched a Game 4 win against the Blues on Wednesday to send the series back to St. Louis tied 2-2, but their biggest supporter wasn't even in the arena. A photo of a fan sitting outside of American Airlines Arena during the game with a folding chair and an umbrella in the middle of a thunderstorm went viral.
The Stars have been one of the surprises of this postseason and have bandwagon supporters, but this fan is anything but fairweather.
The Stars saw the photo and decided to try and make the fan's day.
Twitter, work your magic.
This is what being a fan is all about. We want to give this Stars fan who sat outside AAC in the rain tickets to Game 6. Let's locate this dedicated fan! If you know him, let us know! #GoStars https://t.co/0CgczV1A8m

Twitter did, in fact, work its magic. Or rather, Alex Rozier from a local television station did. WFAA tracked the fan down, and he's been identified as "Dave from Fort Worth." The Stars are hooking him up with tickets to Game 6 on Sunday.
THE SEARCH IS OVER!
The dedicated fan who weathered the storm during Game 4 is Dave from Fort Worth! We'll get in touch with him for tickets to Game 6 on Sunday!
Kudos to @AlexRozier8 and @WFAA for doing the work and finding Dave. Well done! https://t.co/rkCxVRWB3K

Even though this is a feel-good story, if you're superstitious that's not the best news in world. The Stars won Game 4, so maybe it would be for the best if he stayed in the courtyard. With that being said though, Dave has definitely earned a spot inside the arena.
