Neat idea, I’d like to see a version with MLS included.

Devils should feel privileged to be lumped into NYC metro area.

Still diabolical that Virginia has ZERO

Toronto needs an NFL team and maybe a second NHL team. If cities like Detroit, Denver and Minneapolis can handle 4 pro sports teams then Toronto could certainly handle at least 4.

The color scale is horrible. What’s with the goofy relationship between color and number of teams? ROYGBIV is the standard.

Sacramento has 2, Vegas has two, at least for the next couple years

lol guess we’re counting San Jose and San Francisco as one city… Oakland gets an honorable mention

San Francisco has two, Giants and Warriors.
San Jose has two, 49ers and Sharks.
Sacramento has two, Kings and A’s.

I like Wisconsin we have the Brewers bucks and the Packers all 3 of which are considered pretty good to very good teams I know nothing about the badgers

Okay any other non-NHL fans just learning the Carolina Hurricanes aren’t in Charlotte?

Houston needs a hockey team.

Just a little note about the Big Four, MLS has more average fans per game than the NHL does. Hockey is still more popular but, honestly Big Five would be more accurate.

Denver having 4 but not Atlanta or Seattle is surprising

Now do it by state and see how many people go “but what about Kansas?”

Was going to ask about Phoenix but googled the Coyotes before I did. Now I know there’s an NHL team in SLC. Learn sumthin new every day.

Interesting map but hard to read quickly, it would be helpful to use symbol size to represent the number so you can have a quick sense of how many teams a city has just by looking at it and not having to go back and forth to the legend each time. That or a more standard color gradient. But great content.

Might as well just put the number directly on the map instead of the color dot.

Can someone who lives in the rectangle states tell me how they chose their team?

Smallest city with at least one of each? Denver, CO

NYC getting credit for two teams that play in the Meadowlands and another that plays in Newark (which is actually an NJ team).

MLS should be considered a “big” sport. Cities build stadium for the teams. Anything where cities are build 10k plus capacity stadium should be a big sport

Am I really going to be the first to say that Anaheim isn’t LA?
Also the Devils in no way represent NYC.

Including the Devils with NYC teams is certainly gonna stir the pot locally lol.

This reminded me that the 49ers led the NFL in ticket revenue last season by large margin. I’m pretty sure it’s the largest population within a 150 mile radius of the stadium per team.
And then if you factor the volume of high income households within that radius you get high ticket prices.
An OK idea, but not a good map. There is no logic to the colors. You should be able to tell without referring to the legend whether green is more than blue or yellow. Maybe it would have been better with a monochromatic shading.

Oh yeah, Columbus has a pro hockey team, I forgot. College sports really suck up all the oxygen there.
Edit: Hockey

It’s a shame the Colorado Rockies owner is such a POS. You’d think the ball club would be at least okay once in a while being 1 of the 9 cities on the continent to have all 4 major sports in town.. but alas what a Dick.

Huh, didn’t realize Phoenix lost its hockey team.

So, is it the Detroit Tigers, the Detroit Lions, or the Detroit Pistons that don’t count for the purposes of this map?
(Could be any of them tbh)
