Best Fans? ... Don't Bother Reading This ... If U Can Be Doing Anything Else
The best fans in the National Football League braved harsh weather along the shores of Lake Erie to root for a losing team last year.
.... The Cleveland Browns, not the Buffalo Bills, are No. 1 in the annual rankings of fan loyalty .... The Browns stumbled to a 6-10 record last year, their third straight losing season. Yet Browns Stadium was sold out for every game, helping to push Cleveland to the top of the fan-loyalty list. Buffalo is No. 6 among the league's 32 teams, drawing credit for strong attendance at Ralph Wilson Stadium despite a small market, chilly late-season games and a team that has lost a few more games than it won during the past decade. The study set out to identify the NFL's best fans. Not the ones who turn out in strong numbers for a winning team, but the ones who stay loyal even if their team is losing, the weather is frightful or their local market is small. .... edited extracts from: http://www.bizjournals.com/sacrament...552000^1345077 |

So the Pats' fans were by definition, ineligable. Good for the Cleveburghers.
