with most bandwagon fans. Only behind Arizona.

CBS

Emory Analysis

Although we're #9 in willingness to spend on the team, and #5 in social media.

Did they include 2005, because that throws the numbers off?

An Atlanta based University did the study and they conveniently left the Falcons out of the Top 10 for Bandwagoners?

They did analysis though! I guess they saw they had no real fans and therefore no bandwagoners.

I can honestly say I have never in my life met a bandwagon Saints fan. I've met thousands and all of em are lifers. This is an idiotic study.

ATL doesn't have enough fans to make the threshold.

....Now if we talk about artificial bandwagon fans, ATL might make the scene

Well I have noticed the number of people who decided to make their Facebook middle name "blackngold" after the Super Bowl has plummeted dramatically in the last couple years.

Both top 2 are absolutely stupid.

Every saints fan I know is close in proximity and grew up saints fans..

Bandwagon fans tend to jump on more major cities than New Orleans..

Having a boost of support from the local community after a devastating event does not equal bandwagon. People rallied around the team to unite. It just so happens we got good.

There's no way Seattle and Dallas aren't #1 and #2.

eh...being at LSU in 2005 and maybe seeing one or two saints related things a day and a good amount of cowboys and packers stuff to seeing like 20 saints items per class in 2006 kind of makes me think there are plenty of bandwagoners.

Yes, yes it does. That's the exact definition of bandwagon.
Latch on.

Wait, when the saints got better more people went to the games and bought merch? Something would be seriously wrong if this didn't happen.
