Sports Enclaves and Motorhead, by Mark Erickson

Greensboro NC loves NASCAR best
Racing fans and motorheads in Greensboro NC love NASCAR best
Jammin’ to Motorhead right now… Aftershock… a 2013 release that demonstrates rock prowess. So…

Read yesterday in the Wall Street Journal about US cities that have the highest viewership ratings for various sports. Greensboro NC has the highest for NASCAR. Not necessarily a surprise there. Buffalo ranks #1 for NHL. Louisville tops the college basketball circuit. Birmingham AL is #1 for college football. New Orleans is #1 for the NFL. What I like best is that hockey-crazed Minneapolis (I would say MN) ranked first for the Winter Olympics. Not necessarily a surprise there.

The article wondered why PGA viewership would be #1 in Oklahoma City, which is not even a stop on the tour.
