Q: what are the difference between these three?

2. I'm a big fan of Mary.

3. I'm a big Mary fan.


Thank you.
 
Q:What are the differences between these three?

1. I'm Mary's fan. Mary has only one fan—me.

2. I'm a big fan of Mary. I'm one of Mary's big fans.

3. I'm a big Mary fan. Same as 2, but could also mean 'I'm a fan of somebody called "big Mary".'
