Thunder Boy Wonder: The Story Behind OKC Thunder's Number 1 Supporter

You can feel it all over the city, it’s time to Thunder up for the playoffs, and there is no better person to bring the hype than Thunder Boy Wonder.

“From my socks to my earring, to my watch, it was all Thunder,” said Thunder enthusiast, John Bling.

He is John Bling or Thunder Boy Wonder but whatever you call him, just don’t call him just a fan. “I call myself a franchise fan. I like what the franchise has done for Oklahoma City,” said Bling.

He has been that way since day one of the franchise, he even still has the program from the very first game, something that still stirs emotions.

It’s a passion that he expresses through his music raps and his car wraps. “I’ve always been about cars, so I knew that I could do something with a car,” said Bling.

So, for the 2011 – 2012 season, Bling married his passion for cars with his passion for the team. “Maybe I’ll put the players down the side of the car, to show my love for the team,” said Bling.

He followed that up with several more Thunder vehicles, stepping up his game every time. “That’s when I said, you know what? I want to do a limo,” said Bling.

Now what he’s done in the past is without question impressive, but just wait until you see what he’s got planned for this Sunday’s playoff game. “I’ve got a starting five, and I have a sixth man, and y’all know who they are,” said Bling.

In celebration of the playoffs, John Bling is putting the final touches on his latest Thunder showcase. “This is what I want them to see, a custom hummer, sitting on thirty-inch wheels, rolling out for the Oklahoma City Thunder come Sunday playoff time,” said Bling.

Look for the finished project on Thunder Alley before Sunday’s playoff game and Thundering on the streets of Oklahoma City.
