Packers fans “America’s most passionate” according to new Top 10

No sports, but plenty of rankings.

The newest one by Forbes has determined what professional sports team in the US has the most passionate fans, and that team is, of course, the Green Bay Packers.

Forbes used TV ratings, stadium attendance based on capacity reached, merchandise sales, secondary-ticket demand and social media reach for every team in the NFL, NBA, NHL, and MLB.

The Forbes writeup says about the Packers fans: “Cheeseheads are willing to marry, divorce, remarry—even abandon their mothers—for a shot at tickets. No wonder: The season-ticket waiting list has 137,000 names on it, and 99% of current holders renew every year.”

Here’s the Top 10:

1. Green Bay Packers
2. New England Patriots
3. New Orleans Saints
4. Pittsburgh Steelers
5. Philadelphia Eagles
6. Seattle Seahawks
7. Golden State Warriors
8. Oklahoma City Thunder
9. Pittsburgh Penguins
10. Boston Red Sox
