Guest Posted September 23, 2019 Posted September 23, 2019 Now that we're on the topic... This could make for a good discussion. It's as expected but I love how England and Spain take the off mainland states!
Eco Posted September 23, 2019 Posted September 23, 2019 Thought Mexico would have controlled more. Lousiana choosing French makes the most sense out of everything. No offense, but I have no idea how Peru can be the most popular NT team in those states unless those States have a large enough Peruvian population that go to soccer.com.

There are tons of Peruvians in New York and Miami. Michigan I'm not too sure, but there is a reason most of our US games are in New York, cos there are way too many. Kansas makes no sense though. I didn't even know Peruvians in Kansas was a thing. Which is the one Egypt controls? That comes as a surprise to me. I also expected more Colombia.

That seems way too low and we brought 25K when we played Iceland in march. Does that mean a third of Peruvians showed up to the game roughly? Even if the map is inaccurate, 66K still seems to low.

It probably means 65k of the 66k Peruvians took part in the soccer.com survey.

It's not a survey; just the top-selling federation jerseys in each U.S. state at the time of last World Cup.

Ah, that makes more sense, and a good year to do it as it didn't involve the mighty U.S. Be interesting if the Dutch and Italians were in there, how that would have effected it. Surely NY would then become Italian, as well as a lot of NE States. Not sure if the Dutch would have changed anything.

What does that have to with Egyptians living in South Carolina? They don’t have to follow Islamic law because they were born on a particular patch of dirt

I said I'm surprised a lot of people in South Carolina bought Egyptian shirts for the World Cup. I don't think their is a large Egyptian population there, AND they are aren't the kindest folks towards an Islamic country. I would guessed that they would have sided with someone like England or France.

I would guess they left Egypt cos of discrimination. I would say there isn’t enough people to fill a whole state but it just takes one simple look at Egypt’s overall population...
