If you’ve ever thought, “Wow, these fans seem a little rowdy,” you might be onto something. A new survey of over 3,000 football fans has revealed which NFL teams have the thirstiest fanbases—and it turns out some people treat Sunday like it’s Thirsty Thursday.
According to the survey, Arizona Cardinals fans top the list when it comes to game day drinking. Nearly 19% of Cardinals fans admit to having five or more drinks while watching the game, which definitely puts the “wild” in Wild Card Weekend.
Buffalo Bills fans came in second (maybe it’s all that table-smashing energy they need to fuel), followed by supporters of the Houston Texans, Carolina Panthers, Tennessee Titans, Washington Commanders, LA Chargers, New York Giants, New Orleans Saints, and Jacksonville Jaguars.
On the flip side, the most sober-curious fanbase seems to be in Green Bay. Only 3% of Packers fans hit the five-drink mark, which might be because they’re already full on cheese curds.
Seahawks fans in Seattle came in second for least likely to binge, followed by the Steelers, Dolphins, Patriots, Chiefs, Bears, Colts, Lions, and Jets.
The Cleveland Browns landed right in the middle at 20th place, which might surprise some people given the team’s historically, uh, challenging seasons. Maybe Browns fans are just emotionally numb at this point, or maybe they’ve learned to pace themselves after so many heartbreaks.
The findings come from a survey by Action Network and shed a little light on how different fanbases cope with the highs and lows of their teams. Whether it’s celebrating a win or drowning a loss, NFL Sundays clearly come with a few rounds.
So if you’re heading to a tailgate this fall, maybe keep an eye on the Cardinals fans. And if you’re watching with someone from Green Bay, just bring extra cheese—they’re probably good on beer.
