I didn't see one single person in that thread argue that BR wasn't number 1. The debate was between New Orleans and Houston.

The exact number of alums in a city isn't out there as you saw since you obviously googled it, so it isn't even worth debating, but I feel safe in saying there is no way in hell that there are A LOT more alums in Houston than in Baton Rouge. And there is no way there are more LSU fans in Houston than in Baton Rouge.

Well you didn't read the thread then

I feel safe in saying that by sheer #'s alone, Houston wins. We're comparing the 4th largest city in the country to a 800,000 person metro area. Then when you take into account the % of people who actually have graduated in each city, the gap becomes even wider

I would say around 75-90% of the people in my graduating class left BR. You can throw a rock and hit an open job in Houston

Just out of curiosity, how are you defining "fans?" Because even if every person in the Baton Rouge metro area was an LSU fan, it'd only take 15% of the population of the Houston metro area to surpass Baton Rouge.
