I doubt Arkansas….you get as far south as Springfield and you’re entering Cards territory. But I"m not voting against Wyoming after this year’s victory!

and while doublestix knows some royals fans, doublestix also knows a lot of bandwagon POS’s (for you know who). doublestix thinks that if the royals start to win and sir alex gordon becomes a legitimate star, nebraska will be #3.

…but then again I don’t know many Oklahomans. This website claims it’s mostly Cards:

“-The original map didn’t take into account the Cardinals’ following in Oklahoma. It’s for real, so I added it. A lot of those Oklahomans grew up on KMOX, a station that once carried Cardinals games to much of the Midwest. The Cards are really considered the "team of the Midwest.” I think the original map did a good job of showing that, but decided to give all of Oklahoma to the Rangers, which was wrong."

…NE or IA. Those are traditional strongholds. If I had to pick only one, I’d say NE because of the Cubs’ Des Moines AAA team. – TL

Seems to have a few New Yorkers. But they don’t count because that’s not real America.

‘Cause if you as NYers, those people aren’t real NYers anyway…

As an aside, I heard as more or more racist and xenophobic talk in 7 years in NYC than I did in 1.5 years in New Orleans, 16.5 years in Oklahoma, and 5 years in rural Kansas combined. Of course, in NYC it was almost completely from “visible minorities,” so I guess it doesn’t count.

hey, wait a minute – I live in Nebraska, at least I think I do…

Soon Sarpy County will overtake Kansas for Royal Fandom

in the california column.

See people wearing Royals hat’s every so often but I don’t know if its out of fandom so much as it is style. Anytime its backwards is basically a sure sign its definitely not fandom.

orange county fans that joined the crusade on the heels of Mike Sweeney being a local hero.

Iowa is cubs, twins, white sox, royals/brewers. Yes thats right we are tied with the brewers.

I go to Iowa State and know of one Iowa native royals fan that is college aged.

Nebraska has alot more royals fans. For one they are actually on tv there. The royals have had 5 games on tv in iowa since i’ve come to school. (opening day espn my fresh year and then two fox sat games a year)

Hell, I know more kids from omaha who go to ISU that like the royals than native iowan ISUers who like the royals. Say that 5 times fast.

to quote my friend william joel.
Catholic girls start much too late. hahaha

If you were to keep track of the first 100 baseball cap wearing Oklahomans, this is how it would probably go:

New York Yankees 35
Boston Red Sox 15
Chciago Cubs 10
St. Louis Cardinals 10
Atlanta Braves 8
Texas Rangers 5
LA Dodgers 5
San Francisco Giants 4
Cleveland Indians 4
Houston Astros 2
Philadelphia Phillies 1 (give this a couple months and they’ll be a little further up this list)
Kansas City Royals 1 (just as long as I was one of these 100)

Needless to say, there are a ton of bandwagon fans around here.

I went to school & played ball out @ Fort Hays State in the late 90’s. I couldn’t find a Royals fan out there that didn’t come from the KC area. The vast, vast majority of Westen Kansas were Rockies fans…
