Found this interesting, thought I would share.

It's a map of the college fans by county. Pretty neat.

i call BS on this map.

Clemson has a lot of fans throughout the state. Can't just pigeon hole us into the one corner.

badge-donor-05yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up


More than SC has though? I assume this map will


May 6, 2015, 2:46 PM

take a county that is 51% coot and 49% tiger and just color it garnet.

May 6, 2015, 2:50 PM [ in reply to i call BS on this map. ]

If you look at each county, there are clemson fans in the garnet areas, just colored garnet due to a majority of fans being Carolina.

The darker the worse the differential...

There are a ton of Clemson fans in Irmo and Chapin...


May 6, 2015, 2:58 PM [ in reply to i call BS on this map. ]

So I know those percentages are way off for those two zip codes.

Have lived in Newberry/Saluda County area all my life,..


May 6, 2015, 8:44 PM

There is no way there are two & a half times the coots in those two counties as there are Tiger fans. No way!

More like what does it look like when you remove all...

Re: Found this interesting, thought I would share.


May 6, 2015, 2:55 PM

It also has Zip Codes like 29666 which is Ninety Six as being waaaay favoring Scar.... that was definitely not the case when I was there.

badge-donor-05yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

29631-the City of Clemson - leans just 51% Clemson


May 6, 2015, 4:03 PM

yeah, I'm buying this data.

badge-donor-05yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

That map is completely inaccurate....


May 6, 2015, 2:56 PM

There are a whole lot Clemson fans in the midlands. Those percentages are way off. I know in my area code there is a much higher percentage of Clemson fans than shown in that map.

May 6, 2015, 3:00 PM

It's based off of facebook likes. Not the best way to gauge fan distribution but the easiest.

More Va Tech than Wahoos?

...BS on this as well. First off, note the source of this enlightened information...some pencil neck at the New York Times.

Stereotypical and yet grossly uninformed mapping here.

2024 orange level memberbadge-donor-05yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

The map is bogus, NO ONE in Northern California care about college sports, period.


May 7, 2015, 10:09 AM

The guys I talk sports with are from Texas, Ohio, and North Carolina. None of us are Oregon fans. In fact, it's not applicable. Native North Staters don't care about college sports.
