Among the supporters' groups affiliated with the Earthquakes are the 1906 Ultras, Club Quake and The Casbah. Another well-known independent fan is "Krazy George" Henderson. Although most widely known as a potential innovator of "The Wave" at an Oakland Athletics baseball game in 1981, Krazy George is most intimately connected to the Earthquakes, having been a supporter since 1975 with the original NASL Earthquakes.

Famous quotes containing the word support:
“To suppose such a thing possible as a society, in which men, who are able and willing to work, cannot support their families, and ought, with a great part of the women, to be compelled to lead a life of celibacy, for fear of having children to be starved; to suppose such a thing possible is monstrous.”
—William Cobbett (1762–1835)
“An ordinary man will work every day for a year at shoveling dirt to support his body, or a family of bodies; but he is an extraordinary man who will work a whole day in a year for the support of his soul. Even the priests, men of God, so called, for the most part confess that they work for the support of the body.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Children learn to care by experiencing good care. They come to know the blessings of gentleness, or sympathy, of patience and kindness, of support and backing first through the way in which they themselves are treated.”
—James L. Hymes, Jr. (20th century)
