Chicago MLB Team Fans Called Drunkest in Baseball
Talk about needing a drink. I guess if you watched this team, and judging by the attendance numbers you didn't, you needed something to help make the viewing a bit more palatable.
It's probably because they were so bad or maybe it's because the franchise has just kind of floundered since winning the World Series.
Maybe it's because ownership is disliked by the fanbase or maybe a combination of everything leading White Sox fans to drink, like a lot.
Posted on Reddit and titled Which MLB Fans Drink the Most? Chicago White Sox fans drink more than any other team in baseball.
Averaging 4.2 drinks per game and spending about $46 on booze they qualify as super blasted.
Interestingly, the Chicago Cubs, who just about every non-Cubs fan derides Wrigley Field as The World's Largest Beer Garden rank as the 14th drinkiest in the MLB.
Maybe that has something to do with all the bars surrounding Wrigley meaning fans are getting their drink on before (and after) the game?
Milwaukee's major league team, the Brewers, a team named after a person who makes beer, is only the 10 most drunk in baseball.
That sad news leads one person on Reddit to comment "We've failed as a franchise" and another to say "Having been to a Brewers game, I don't believe the rankings. I guess the parking lot beers don't count."
What is the drunkest fan base in baseball? Is it the Cubs, Sox, Brewers, or another?
