So, what conclusions can be taken from this data? Anyone feel froggy on the groggy to have a crack at it?

The left column represents home teams whose fans (attendees?) hit the grog more than those on the right column.

I've actually attended Giant games in three cities in the left column:

1. Tennessee (Nashville): back in 2006, that was the infamous 21-0 Giant lead into the 4th quarter which changed on a dime when Kiwanuka had Young in the grasp, then let him go, and he ran for a first down. Fast forward to the end: 21-24. Now you know why that that place hit #1, 'nuff said.

9. Carolina (Charlotte/Clemson U): in their first season (1995), when they played at Clemson University, an Army buddy and I took the drive up from (then) Ft. Gordon in Augusta, GA to Clemson to see the Giants in their final exhibition game. It was a deep south soaker and we were sopping wet, cold, Dave Brown and rookie Kerry Collins played cold, my buddy and I hit the beers early and by the 4th quarter we were behind the Giants bench talking to the Giants players as they had lost interest in the quagmire as well. Dan Reeves didn't look too enthused either. So, you're in the Army, it's the weekend, your Giants are in town, you hang out after the game at Clemson to check out the action, sure, you're going to blow .069, but we were likely more than that. But we didn't make the long drive in the rain back to Georgia until we were sober.

12. Arizona (Glendale): my drinking days are long in the past, but our family trip to see the Giants play the Cardinals this past season was enjoyable. Not too many alcohol incidents and those were policed up by security quickly and efficiently. The Cardinals have moved past their old Arizona State College Campus party atmosphere culture into trying to draw families while fanbases still have some relevance.

This is one man's input on the chart above. Looking forward to others!

Peace!
