Will the pels ever get this kind of local support?

stolen from saints talk.
the saints have always had their loyals myself included but the success beginning with this new regime and culminating in the superbowl increased the fanbase exponentially. when we win a title in 2016 will we see a stat like this in the pels favor?

The Pelicans will win a title. But we may not see that kind of stat with the draft. I don't care.

New Orleans viewers follow NBA basketball more than people who don't look into such things realize.

I mean in terms of local support for the team. would winning a title sell out games and have people at bars talking about the pels not just the saints? it's hard to go a day ,any day not necessarily just during the season, without seeing someone in saints gear. I want that type of devotion and loyalty to the pels.

It'd be awesome. When I was partying in Oklahoma City last year the Thunder were the talk of town.

Check out the Tapas place in Bricktown. Tell them I sent you.

I won't be going back there anytime soon. Way too boring of a city. Although I wouldn't mind catching a Pelicans-Thunder game there.

Well, during the "glory years" .. . or nine months , whatever . . . in 2008-9 there was significant visible support. Had the franchise not crashed and burned who knows what would have happened?
Look, I'm pretty sure the Saints will always be number 1 unless they really go into the crapper for years in a row while the Pelicans are contending for championships. They've been here for 45 years or so. And this is football country. Nevertheless, once the Pelicans establish a winning tradition they'll attract more fans and interest.

The phrase I'm a Pelicans fan still sounds odd to me.
