The Opie And Anthony Show Army
The Opie and Anthony Army (also known as "The Pests") are a collection of Opie & Anthony listeners who take a proactive approach to the show, as opposed to mere passive listening. These fans are involved in listener events, promoting the show, and the like. They are jokingly known by the hosts as a collection of "misfits", "computer nerds" and "failures", with the implicit recognition that these devotees relate well to the hosts themselves. Forbes Magazine has recognized "The Pests" as a major source of viral marketing for the show, facetiously suggesting that Anthony Cumia be nominated as CMO of XM Satellite Radio for his role in encouraging and leading the Pests.
