One here from Leamington Spa, Warwickshire.
I make it to 2-3 games a season, depending on work, trains running, or overnight bus.
Leave Leamington on the 5.40 am, and via Brum, and return ,on the 18.50 from
Waverley, getting to Leamington 00.25 am Sunday morning.
I believe there is a local postman, who goes most weeks, and there is another local Hibee,
I see occasionally. Moved from Corstorphine, to England in 1967.

I've got a mate from Chile, Ohiggins fan but I've done a good job with him and he's now very much Hibs daft.
He was on holiday last year travelling round Europe and his no.1 priority was to visit Edinburgh for a game at Easter Road, I took him to the Dundee draw at the start of the season, he absolutely loved it.
He cuts about his home city of Rancagua with his Hibs gear on all the time, last time i spoke to him he was talking about setting up an official supporters club, said he'd converted a couple of his mates.

I only get to 4-5 games a season but there are some seriously dedicated folks who do most games (several post on here)

I'm in Bolivia right now. Doubt there's a Hibs supporter's club around here! There is a solitary Irish bar in this city, where you're greeted by the 3 lions staring you in the face on entry!

Was on a weekend away in Brighton around 30 years ago and I noticed a guy wearing the old McBean Purple Away top playing football on the beach. I went over for a chat and he confirmed he didn't follow Hibs, but had bought the strip in a 2nd hand shop in Nigeria. He had moved to the UK shortly after buying the top.

I live in a small village in North Wiltshire called Derry Hill. In between Chippenham and Calne.
My Dad (Bathhibby) and brother are the only two Hibees I know in Bath. There are some more.

Not far flung but I'm in the Green Belt surrounding Berlin. Lived in Berlin for 20 years and have converted a fair few locals but never bumped into any Hibbys in all that time. Bumped into a few Poppy Thieves in bars whilst watching games on TV but fortunately never when we got beat.
Once seen a green SUV with Hibs stickers on it and German Reg plates at my local Shopping Centre, but never found out who it was.

Never met another Hibby in the Chicago burbs.... did have someone recognize the strip in a supermarket when Jamie Mclaren played for us.
I'm over in August to see Oasis and bringing a local buddy, getting to a game at ER is on the list so his assimilation should be complete after that.

Cairo Hibs - For its a grand old team
Living in Cairo, Egypt, I have been an ardent Hibs supporter for over 50 years, looking to connect with like-minded, staunch Hibs supporters in the region. Still playing five a-side football with my 2016 Hibs top on. ]There’s nothing like representing the Cabbage on the pitch. "Persevered"
