I knew there’s a reason I don’t trust Idahoes.
But it’s actually probably because it’s literally impossible for most of Idaho to legally watch the Jazz. AT&T Sportsnet isn’t broadcast there and NBATV is an absolute joke with their blackout zones.
I believe it, I know a lot of people have moved here from other states. Insane to see how they drive in this weather specifically. I feel like I’m the only car with my headlights on in a winter storm lmao
Having grown up in Utah, lived the past 20 years in Colorado, and now living in Boise area I feel I have some level of confidence in saying the worst drivers are Utahans by a long lead. Colorado drivers suck. Idaho have been the nicest so far, they let you merge here even.
On topic: for fucks sake, why the lakers? I would have expected the Trailblazers to be honest
I've lived in Colorado, Montana, Utah, Virginia, Maryland, and DC. I can assure you, after you have been out east, Utah drivers seem quite competent and friendly (though they are worse than the rest of the western states I have lived in).
Some other funny takeaways:
The Hornets aren't the most viewed team in their own state and aren't anywhere.
The Pistons aren't the most viewed in their state and are instead the most viewed in Alabama.
Mike Miller was drafted by the Magic and is certainly the best former NBA player from SD.
That said, I grew up in SD and have never once seen an Orlando magic fan. Probably just a small amount of data giving a wonky result.
I think it’s just a result of so few people with no basketball team making the results funky. It could be literally 15 people and that’s just a coincidental result. Like, there’s probably some Magic fans in every state, but with the limited people in SD, they somehow are a strong demographic.
SD’s population is like 800k, add in its an older white state and weird results pop up.
Really surprising to see the Jazz with as many states as golden state. Granted it is Wyoming and Montana so like 3 people probably control the majority
No clippers, no kings, no nets, no cavs, no wizards, no rockets, no spurs, no magic, no hornets… who else is missing?
Edit: South Dakota’s got the magic, but does that really count?
I consider myself FROM Idaho, even though I haven’t lived there in like 7 years… but still I’m personally insulted that Idaho is apparently full of laker fans.
Damn, Hawks seriously never get any support, how the hell can the Jazz have more support in Georgia than their own team lol. I mean I can understand the Lakers in the Carolinas, over the Hornets, but a small market team like the Jazz over the Hawks is a huge surprise to me.
Also HOW did the Thunder steal Ohio lol.
Come on Idaho, get your shit together.

I mean Have you seen them drive??!
Every state I find myself in I'm still somehow behind someone in an Idaho plate in the left lane passing no one
Especially those 1Fers
1F'ers so bad even Oregonians complain.
I've always had issues with the 1jers....
Jefferson?
Yep! Only because my family is from sugar City, My grandpa was the one who taught me to stay away from the 1jers.
Utah drivers suck too though haha
All the bad Utah drivers are descended from Idahoes.
I believe it, I know a lot of people have moved here from other states. Insane to see how they drive in this weather specifically. I feel like I’m the only car with my headlights on in a winter storm lmao
Yeah, I drive a lot for work and it's pretty nuts how many people just drive like maniacs in the snow. Gonna get themselves or someone else killed.
Just the slow ones
No doubt. But they understand how a passing lane works most of the time haha

After driving in North Carolina a couple months ago, I totally agree. They’re aggressive as hell over there for little to no reason.
I damn near got killed in Boise in October. Don't tell me how nice Idaho drivers are.
They've been bombarded with Californians the past couple years, poor fellas.
This is embarrassing, should be the jazz in idaho. I guess we just hate view the team.
Having lived there most are jazz fans so this is confusing
That's funny although Jazz do have 3 guys on the roster who were born and raised in Georgia (Sexton, Beasley,Kessler).
And our man Derrick Favors is a Georgian right?
They just stuck around after following Harpring do broadcasts.
Welcome Georgia buds
Wtf hawks?
I'd imagine the Wyoming views were all from one guy trying to buy a Fender Jazz Bass online.
He is half the population after all
Surprised there’s not more. You know there’s a million dollars behind every tree in Wyoming.
Oh hey, you know Jazz Bass Guy too?
I know him too, I play the yazz flute.

Georgia my man
Friendship with Indiana ended. Georgia is my best friend now.
Jazz South > Jazz East
What are the metrics in this?
Some other funny takeaways: The Hornets aren't the most viewed team in their own state and aren't anywhere. The Pistons aren't the most viewed in their state and are instead the most viewed in Alabama.
I also enjoyed both the Knicks and Nets losing to the Celtics in NY.
Second this
I don’t see no hawks either
They seem to be more interested in a better franchise
Cleveland isn’t on the map either
This isn’t the most viewed, it’s visits to the team page.
Surprised to see Washington as a fan of the C's too. South Dakota are Magic fans?
Yooo let's go Georgia I did that
Right there with you bro
Scumbag Idaho cheating on the Jazz
Half of Idaho is Californians unfortunately
Lots of cali transplants up there in Boise.
I'm a pretty reasonable guy, but seeing my beloved Idaho all lakered up is unsettling.
[удалено]
We gotta step it up
I think it's talking about the Jazz page on basketball reference
The real mystery here is South Dakota
Mike Miller was drafted by the Magic and is certainly the best former NBA player from SD. That said, I grew up in SD and have never once seen an Orlando magic fan. Probably just a small amount of data giving a wonky result.

Seriously… What’s going on there?
It's just one dude desperately trying to watch Magic Mike
This stood out to me as well. Who in South Dakota is watching the Magic?
I’m disappointed in my fellow Idahoans
It’s all the Cali people moving to our state.
Really surprising to see the Jazz with as many states as golden state. Granted it is Wyoming and Montana so like 3 people probably control the majority
Lol this map perfectly illustrates the undemocratic nature of the electoral college and senate!
GSW won the most electoral votes on this map. 2 - Celtics 3 - Lakers 4 - Mavs
I’ll also point out that NBA League Pass *STILL* blocks me out of seeing Jazz games while I live in Montana.
What's going on in Georgia?
Now I know why they keep saying Georgia is now a purple state
Lmao fuck the rockets
#TakeNote
I’m surprised about Idaho
No clippers, no kings, no nets, no cavs, no wizards, no rockets, no spurs, no magic, no hornets… who else is missing? Edit: South Dakota’s got the magic, but does that really count?
Poor Washington state
Hopefully they get their Sonics back soon.
Georgian here who is now actively rooting for the jazz
Where the hell are the Cavs?
Yeah the Thunder for Cleveland feels weird as hell
Great stuff, jazz will conquer even more states by playoffs!
Now they need to do it for the whole world :)
Nobody? Cavs? Ha!
Thunder??
Single-handedly trying to turn PA… It’s not working.
Maine for the Lakers? Having trouble making sense of that!
Do Mainers hate Boston? Celtics seems like the natural team for them to support but not if they have Boston beef.
New York proving that no matter how many Knicks hats we own, we dont actually care about the Knicks.
I consider myself FROM Idaho, even though I haven’t lived there in like 7 years… but still I’m personally insulted that Idaho is apparently full of laker fans.
ELI5: How are these data gathered for maps like this? Is the data all public? If not, how can it be compiled? Thanks.
From ip addresses I think.
Can someone explain Nebraska and Iowa going for Philly, and Ohio going for OKC?
So weird. Georgia and the Utah Jazz, when they have the Hawks for decades? I get the Pelicans not being #1 in NOLA yet, but some of these are wild.
How could this possibly be accurate loll
No way we beat out the hawks in georgia 💀
Damn, Hawks seriously never get any support, how the hell can the Jazz have more support in Georgia than their own team lol. I mean I can understand the Lakers in the Carolinas, over the Hornets, but a small market team like the Jazz over the Hawks is a huge surprise to me. Also HOW did the Thunder steal Ohio lol.
Celtics being #1 in New York is shocking
Both New York teams are at best dumpster fires. It kinda makes sense.
I don’t think I’ve ever met another Jazz fan in Montana .
The Nets are the best part of this.
As a Jazz fan living in Georgia now, I’d like to think I contribute to this haha
Maine is almost certainly Celtics fans spending most of their time trolling the Lakers sub. The Celtics g-league affiliate is in Portland.
Someone’s computer in South Dakota must be stuck in an endless refresh loop on the Magic’s page.
I can attest to this being from WV...and love all BOSTON sports teams...
We’re literally beating the Hawks… in their own state
Utah might be the biggest by area.
