Cardinals have most bandwagon fans in the NFL, according to study
Fans of the Arizona Cardinals will likely not be too pleased with this study by Emory University. The study ranked all 32 fan bases in the NFL to determine which one had the most bandwagon fans. What they came up with is the Cardinals are ranked No. 1 on that list.
The study specifically says that Cardinals "fans are most responsive to winning percentage in the NFL based on our statistical model of attendance." This should not entirely surprise Cardinals fans as attendance did struggle mightily before they moved into their new stadium and their teams were some of the worst in the NFL.
While the Cardinals did rank No. 1, the top five in the rankings may surprise you a bit. The New Orleans Saints ranked second, Buffalo Bills third, Oakland Raiders 4th and the Washington Redskins rounded out the top 5.
