Not sure I buy into that. Guess the jumping through tables might have helped a bit to come to that conclusion. Imo I think fans of every team likely drinks about the same as any other. So yeah, meh....

 

 

 

Having been to Tennessee, Cincinnati, Indianapolis, and Pittsburgh for road games, I disagree. 

 

Pardon me while I crack open another White Claw......

Lol, I've been to a few road games as well. Can honestly say all the same to me. I definitely could not notice and say, "Meh, Bills fans drink way more than any other team". 

 

Still think the jumping through tables may have swayed this so called, "study" that is not important at all lol

Well, when your franchise has played at 1:00pm 98% of their games scheduled this past decade is it really surprising? "Daytime" drinking is pretty much a given. 😆

I mean so did the Browns, Fins for a while, Raiders fans for sure with the crazies they got. Seriously don't think it's too much difference to make out of it. Fans of every team drink a lot.

 

They drink more when their team is losing or having a losing season, or having a long drought( Bills/Browns). Also fans of teams drink a lot when their team wins a lot, gets to the playoffs, and you can believe they party like it's 1999 if their team wins Super Bowl.

 

So yeah, I mean I just don't think one can definitely say for sure that all fans of one team drinks so much more than any other.

It's a survey of about 1,600 fans. That's only, like, 50 fans per team. So it's an incredibly small sample size to be splitting 32 ways.

And it's all self-reporting. Could be that Bills fans are more honest.

 

To properly study this phenomenon, one should conduct a qualitative case study using the researcher-as-participant methodology. The researcher should attend one home game per team, make detailed observations, and write a descriptive report on each.

 

I'll be submitting my grant application tomorrow. Wish me luck.
