The Ladies Love the Black & Gold

A survey by Scarborough Sports Marketing has found that the Steelers have the largest female fan base. An impressive 34% of the women in the Pittsburgh market identify themselves as fans. Green Bay was second with just over 29%, and Buffalo, Cincinnati, and Kansas City round out the top 5. Although the study didn't report any statistics on the number of female fans who were large enough to actually play professional football, but judging by the other markets in the top 5, I'm gonna go out on a limb and say these are probably not 5'10", 120 lb leggy blondes with season tickets.

Pittsburgh also placed in the top 10 in fans who are men(#2, 35.1%), college graduates(#4, 17.5%), have at least one child in the family (#6, 23.8%), and percentage of fans between the age of 18-24(#7, 7.2%).

Back tomorrow with the weekends NFL picks.
