Most people inwards the N eastern states of the USA volition travel watching the Super Bowl today. But which squad volition they travel supporting?
Google Trends has released an interactive map called NFL Playoffs 2018 which shows the almost searched NFL squad inwards each U.S. county. From this map nosotros tin gauge at which areas of the N due east USA volition travel supporting which squad inwards today's Super Bowl.
Of the ii teams inwards the Super Bowl the New England Patriots are the almost searched squad inwards Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island in addition to the eastern business office of New York. It seems that they volition accept all of New England pretty much rooting for them today.
On the other mitt the Philadelphia Eagles don't look to travel fifty-fifty the almost pop squad inwards Pennsylvania. More counties seem to back upwards the Pittsburgh Steelers inwards Pennsylvania than the Philadelphia Eagles. However the Philadelphia Eagles are the almost supported squad inwards the eastern counties inwards Pennsylvania. They are besides the almost pop squad inwards New Bailiwick of Jersey in addition to Delaware.
In 2014 Facebook released a NFL American fandom map. The map shows the almost 'liked' NFL teams inwards each county of the USA. The Atlantic has a large ikon of the map inwards its Geography of NFL Fandom article. This map paints a similar motion painting to Google's map. The New England Patriots produce dominion inwards New England piece the Eagles accept a much smaller surface area of back upwards inwards New Jersey, Delaware in addition to the almost eastern counties of Pennsylvania.
Based purely on the geographical size of their respective back upwards I denote that the New England Patriots win this year's Super Bowl fandom award.
