    What city do you think has the most passionate fans when it comes to supporting not only their basketball team but their football, baseball, and hockey teams.

    Philly gets my vote.They stand by their team and had showboaters *cough*terrel owns*cough*

    That is bias, because you are from there.

    Not sure about most passionate, but the most loyal are Warriors fans. Easily. I don't think I could ever go through over a decade without getting to the playoffs.

    I think Philly has very mean fans lol, they're probably the fans that hate on their teams the most.

    Wouldn't that be more dedication than passion?

    I think Chicago has a lot of loyal fans. Might be a little bias because I live in Chicago. Cubs fans, me being one of them, stick by our team even though we suck. We still show up to the ballpark and support them. When the Bulls were going through there 6 year strecth post-MJ era, we supported them and sold out games when they were barely winning games. And everybody knows how we feel about Da Bears. Blackhawks suck but people support them as well.

    everybody is going to say that their city has the most passionate fans but the truth is that every city has its passionate and bandwagon fans. I like to think that we are all die hard, passionate fans. Without us the game would not be the same.

    Oakland Raiders fans. When they lost to the Bucs in the Super Bowl in 2002 they messed up their whole city.

    yea Philly fans are nasty but all the games I've been to its been the opposers getting booed and everything (example-Gilbert Arenas when they played washington for the last time this season.I was there and the boos really got to him. It was <font color="red">awesome.</font>

    Houston fans acted pretty gay last year at the second half of the season. Like once when I went to a rockets game, they were like actually making more noise for the Spurs instead of us. They are some fake fans, who let there team down just because they sucked. It doesnt matter if your team sucks, you still have to be a fan, because that is what I consider as a real fan!.. So imo i think Philly fans are the best. When it comes to football, texans fans are pretty powerful, at tailgating and stuff like that

    The Raptors have one of the biggest fan bases and the fans are very passionate. It would help though if we were a winning team so everyone else can see.

    Knicks fans are trash, and so is their team. I am guessing you're saying that either because you are a Knicks Fan, or you know of Madison Square Garden which is pretty famous.. But Knicks SUCK!

    I'd say knicks fans as well. The knicks always suck (lately), yet they still have a HUGE fan base, and tons of media coverage

    Yes we know they suck, but it`s quite obvious that Knick fans are very passionate about their team. Do you know the meaning of the word passion? Because what you`re talking about right now has no relevance to MrJ saying that Knicks fans are the most passionate.
