This one was surprising! With the amount of fans the New England Patriots have, you would think they'd be higher up. Especially with their successful run with Tom Brady! But as far as the city ranked for fans, they came in at #4! As for college, they came in at #194.

#5 Los Angeles, CA
Another surprising result. With L.A. having two teams playing in their city, the L.A. Rams and the L.A. Chargers, you would think they would be higher. Yes, the two teams are rivals, but that makes the city more of a football city! They came in at #5 for pro and for college, this isn't shocking...#37!
