Is Brown the favorite in RI, maybe by attendance.
What about Dartmouth in NH, and Bates in ME?
And I don't believe uVermont even has football.

Brown has a yearly Night game with either URI or Harvard. It draws ok with URI, but a big crowd when Harvard comes to town. the 1st year they had the Harvard Night game, maybe in 2010 they had over 17,000 I believe, but smaller crowds in following year. So, I think that causes Brown's attendance to be higher during the year.

Harvard vs Brown (Sep 25, 2010 at Providence, RI)
Harvard (1-1,0-1) vs. Brown (2-0,1-0)
Date: Sep 25, 2010 Site: Providence, RI Stadium: Brown Stadium
Attendance: 17360\

About 14,000 in 2012, and 2014.

They also had a higher average attendance then we did last year, but that's not how they determined the most popular team, it says right on the top of the map they used facebook likes. Brown has us beat in that category 3118 to 1937.

The University of Vermont doesn't have football. Then again, they're not the most popular football team in the state according to the map.

And UVM isn't listed on the map as Vermont's favorite team, so what's your point?

How do the teams stack up for attendance? Their average was higher than ours last year by about 70 fans per game. Then again, if you weren't lazy you could have just looked it up yourself. It took about two minutes to figure it out, maybe try to bring something to the table next time.
