Peak stan describes someone — or a moment in a fandom — at the absolute height of obsessive, committed fan behavior. It can refer to a person at their most devoted ('she was at peak stan during the second album era') or to behavior so quintessentially fan-coded it serves as a defining example of what stanning looks like at its most intense. Peak stan moments are often the ones that get screenshotted, retweeted, and cited for years as proof of what fandoms are capable of at full power.
Camping outside the venue for 36 hours just to get front row is peak stan behavior and honestly I respect every single part of it.
