Those who hear the name and surname of Aydınlı Fener Bahçe cannot hide their astonishment. Fener Bahçe, who thanked his father for giving him this name, being a fanatic Fenerbahçe supporter, said, "I am proud. Sometimes people laugh, sometimes they don't believe it. My biggest dream is to watch the Fenerbahçe-Galatasaray derby."
A fanatical Fenerbahçe supporter named Şeref Bahçe, who lives in the Kalemler neighborhood of Karacasu, Aydın, named his son Fener when his beloved team became champions in the 1984-1985 season. His son, Fener Bahçe, became a devoted fan of the yellow-blue team just like his father. Growing up with Fenerbahçe matches, making a living through agriculture, and being married with three children, Fener Bahçe never takes off his team's jersey or fleece.
"MY BIGGEST DREAM IS TO WATCH THE FENERBAHÇE-GALATASARAY DERBY"
Thanking his father for giving him this name, Bahçe said, "I am proud, I am happy, but I had a dream of going to Istanbul, which I couldn't fulfill. My biggest dream is to watch the Fenerbahçe-Galatasaray derby. We love other teams too, but my biggest obsession is Fenerbahçe. My father was a fanatic Fenerbahçe supporter, and I am following in his footsteps. I am glad to be a Fenerbahçe fan; may God bless my father." he stated.
"SOMETIMES THEY LAUGH, SOMETIMES THEY DON'T BELIEVE"
Bahçe explained that he was very surprised when people first heard his name and surname, stating that he often had to explain the situation regarding his name while in the military. He expressed that he shows his ID to those who do not believe him, saying, "Wherever I go, people are surprised when they hear my name. When I go to the hospital for a doctor's check-up, they always ask questions related to my name. Sometimes they laugh, sometimes they don't believe it. I am good, I am happy, and most importantly, I love Fenerbahçe very much. Fenerbahçe is my family. I do not separate it from my children, my mother, my father, or my siblings. When there is a Fenerbahçe match, I am alone at home. I watch the matches this way." he expressed.
