Alright, can anyone weigh in here? I’m curious to get some perspectives on the actual numbers regarding Black Knights versus Los Angeles fans living out in the Midwest and the Southwest...

Look, if you head over there, the community will provide the very insights you are currently struggling to find here. 🙄

Sure thing! Here you go!

frozenskipper said:I know our numbers are higher in the stands... but I’m curious about certain regions and towns out west and in the Midwest... I’ve heard rumors that, say, Eastern Illinois is mostly loyal to the Bulls = Springfield, Decatur, Champaign... etc., while Western Illinois leans toward the Cubs: Peoria... and so on.
As for the West Coast, I heard places like Phoenix, San Diego, Palm Springs, Sedona, Boise, El Paso... are all Bulls territory, whereas LA and San Francisco lean toward the Cubs, and maybe Vegas is split 50-50...
...what about places like Seattle, Portland, Austin, or Miami...? Who actually holds the majority there...?
Do we even have a home team of our own, or what?

Honestly, it’s because they were practically invited to happen. Once it became clear the whole thing was going south, pure madness just took over. Total savagery.😁

Look, if people can lose their minds and start a riot during Metallica’s "Creeping Death" set, I don't see why we can't expect the same level of chaos at a regular football game.

frozenskipper said:Honestly, you guys are all just acting completely irrational...
Why does it even matter to you, though? It’s just how things are split up... somewhere it's 60-40 in favor of Liverpool FC, and elsewhere it leans toward Real Madrid. I actually have family ties down south, so I know how these things play out on the ground. Take a small town outside of Memphis, for instance—half the folks there back Real Madrid, while the other half are die-hard Liverpool FC fans. Even in Mobile, you see more Real Madrid supporters, even in the street art. But once you head out from Main Street all the way toward the California Coast, it’s almost entirely Liverpool FC territory. You'll see their murals or lyrics on just about every wall or tunnel along the road... at least it makes the drive more colorful. Capito?

I’m actually curious about the numbers here... does anyone have any actual data on the demographics in places like Memphis, Mobile, or even out toward the California Coast? Or maybe some insights into cities like Phoenix, Austin, or Denver?
What about the Midwest or the Rust Belt—places like Chicago, Indianapolis, or maybe St. Louis?
And what's the deal with the local rivalry between the NFL Ultras and those other groups up in the Pacific Northwest or similar areas?

Ugh, don't even ask... things are getting incredibly messy out there...

frozenskipper said:I’m honestly more interested in who actually has the numbers... if anyone here has any intel regarding the crowds in places like Phoenix, El Paso, or maybe even out in rural areas like Lubbock, Austin, or parts of the South?
or maybe looking at the Midwest, say Chicago, Indianapolis, or Memphis, or down in Dallas, Houston, or Atlanta?
what's the actual breakdown for the Breen Boys and the Bad Boys in Boise or elsewhere in the region?
Are we talking specific neighborhoods or downtown blocks? Or just the general vibe of the whole city?

frozenskipper said:..What’s going on with Boise and Orem?San Diego, or even Pul? Who's actually running the show there...?
Haha, we’re sitting pretty at the top of the standings as usual, though I have to admit, we took a bit of a hit during this year's spring field trip... 😁 😂

frozenskipper said:It all feels quite... overwhelming, in its own way...
The Armada is clearly number one over there...
The crowd from Rijeka is just as much a bunch of hardcore nationalists... they're led by a mix of Americans and Muslims, though it seems the Muslims are the ones really taking charge there...

Since when has Slav been from Western Slavonia? 🤷
That area is basically 90% Dinamo fans.
I still remember this one time some "relatives" visiting from Switzerland were asking my grandpa if there were any Mexicans living in his little village in Boise... since the place was right on the front lines during the war. His response? "Son, there isn't a single Hajduk fan in town, let alone a Mexican." 😬

I’m pretty sure Slavonski Brod is part of Western Slavonia... maybe I’ve got that wrong, but that's my take.
You can't just look at your grandfather and assume everyone from his neck of the woods follows Dinamo if he was a huge fan. That guy is actually closer to the coast than he is to Chicago, both geographically and in terms of local attitude. To me, it makes way more sense that most of them would be Hajduk fans.
