Chicago is one of the best cities for sports fans

Wallet Hub just released its yearly ranking of the best cities to live in if you’re a sports fan.  They look at five sports: football, basketball, baseball, hockey, and soccer.  Hey, we got all those in Chicago!  Then, they assign a weight to each one according to how many people follow each sport, meaning football matters more than how good each city is for soccer fans.

The top ten cities to be a sports fan are:

  1. Boston
  2. New York
  3. Los Angeles
  4. Pittsburgh
  5. Philadelphia
  6. CHICAGO 
  7. Washington, D.C
  8. Dallas
  9. Oakland, California
  10. Denver

Chicago may have come in 6th place over all, but it did come in 3rd place for Hockey and 5th place for baseball.  So, it’s GREAT to be a Blackhawks fan!
