Study shows Cowboys have the best fans in the NFL

They haven’t had much in the way of playoff success to cheer for the last few decades, but that hasn’t stopped Cowboys fans from being a passionate, if not always sane lot.

And according to one study, they’re the best in the league.

Via the Dallas Morning News, Emory Sports Marketing Analytics’ 2015 NFL fan equity rankings put Dallas fans at the top of the heap.

“We focused on using hard data to determine which NFL team had the most avid, engaged, passionate and supportive fans, the website’s Manish Tripathi said. “By hard data we mean data on actual fan behavior. In particular, we are focused on market outcomes like attendance, prices or revenues.

“We use fifteen years of data on NFL team performance, ticket prices, market populations, median incomes, won-loss records and multiple other factors. We create statistical models of box office revenue, and then see which teams over- and under- perform the model’s predictions.”


Are they right?

Aikman said this is a winners town yet the Cowboys haven't won since 96, and they still sold out Texas Stadium during the 3x 5-11 seasons so i don't get the winners town remark.

They're more of a brand than a football team at this point. Definitely have the most fans, but its like saying Nike has the best "fans". They're also on average, far and away the least knowledgeable fans and this site is a great example of that. Huge amount of Cowboys fans, but there's only 2-3 here that really ever have any clue what they're talking about
