This is pretty interesting.
Important: this map is highly inaccurate and should be understood only as a demonstration, and not as any kind of reliable data yet. It is based on only 2,500 votes spread across all teams, across the country. Many of the borders between team areas are based mostly on computer extrapolation in between distantly separated votes. A map with more accurate boundaries will gradually emerge as the number of votes reaches the upper tens of thousands.
Within the colored area associated with each team, more fans support that team than any other. Each black dot represents a single vote. Not every vote within each team's area was for that team. State boundaries are faintly overlaid.

All of Canada should be on the map painted in Burgundy and Gold!
The Carolinas used to be Skin's turf before the Cats came along.

They are mostly scattered throughout the high security prisons distributed all over the USA.

I found something kind of interesting, last weekend I was in Nashville TN on a business trip, and I noticed there were quite a few Redskins fans there. Their local news paper ,The Tennessean, even had a few articles on the Redskins. I asked a few people about this and they said for years, befoe the Titans, this was Redskins Territory.
