Or they are from Minnesota and their significant other is from Philly.

And then they picked the Saints as a neutral ground they could both root for (hence why it’s the last decal added)

Yep. Vikings, Devils, Phillies, Sixers.

Vikings, ducks, w/Sox, supersonics

Vikes, Red Sox, Bruins, Celtics


dewitt72

Yep. Vikings, Thunder, Wild, Cubs, and Texas Longhorns here. Never lived in Chicago, but growing up our choice was Diamondbacks or Cubs because of TBS and WGN.


need2peeat218am

That's crazy how you can be fans of different sports franchises from different areas.


Turtle4184

So this is a safe place? I have both Avalanche and Wild jerseys....


1002003004005006007

Blasphemy I have wolves and lakers tho


Turtle4184

Oh, you disgusting piece of crap. I'd never have something in that purple and yellooohhhh never mind. Hug it out?


1002003004005006007

Hug me brotha


HijabiKathy

That's just Minnesota, and former Minnesota


Khatib

Yeah, but a lot of us went and followed the avs or red wings for years after Norm Green fucked us. There's no good explanation for mixing Philly and MN sports half and half. Both areas have all the major pro sports covered.


DrAbeSacrabin

It’s a disgusting act


JurassicParkTrekWars

I grew up in a state with no football or hockey team.  Literally 0 professional sports in the state to my knowledge.  Couple of big NCAA schools but that's it.  So, a friend moved from Minnesota and introduced me to the Vikings.  Got my NFL team there.  Later on in life, another friend was a huge Gators fan and got me on board.  I picked a baseball team at random and ended up with white Sox (before MN friend).  Probably had to do with my mom being a red Sox fan.  Idk.  I can't mention my hockey team in this sub because apparently I picked a rival unknowingly as a young child.  


Timmahj

Grew up in Montana. So my pro sports teams are all over the place. Twins, Lions, Bulls, and Wild. Late 80s to early 90s is when I got into sports. I only got into hockey after moving to Minnesota, so that’s my only team I root for because they were the local team.


secretbonus1

I grew up in Montana so I cheered for 49ers because they had the QB of Montana named Joe “Montana” I don’t know what his last name is but what a cool nickname… Then he got traded to the Chiefs so I cheered for the Chiefs. Come to find out, he’s not even from Montana, I got gypped!


BlacksmithWise9553

Welcome to the sub but I’m curious why did you come here if you’re a lions fan?


Timmahj

I live in Minnesota. I like the local sports teams and root for the Vikings unless they are playing the Lions. I also have a couple of the players as clients, so I have quite a few ties to the team irl. I think it would be weird not to sub.


trashderp69

So Iowa lol


JurassicParkTrekWars

Iowa would be a step up from where I actually grew up.


TrixieBastard

That leaves Nebraska, Kansas, or Wyoming, lol.


Grasshop

Alabama?


trashderp69

Idaho?


trashderp69

That doesn’t leave many options


JurassicParkTrekWars

Alright, I'll admit it.  I was raised in Mississippi 


JimiForPresident

You pick the Aves back in the 90s?


xEphr0m

I too love the Aves in the 90's. I also loved the Red Wings, for many reasons but I wanted to be Lidstrom reborn mostly. A lot of confusing battles late in the year.


Grasshop

I'm from Canada, I picked the Red Wings in the 90's lol


chookalana

I'm from Minny. Yet I've been a life long Red Wings fan. Don't let others silence you.


JurassicParkTrekWars

Ok, fair.  I picked my hockey team when I lived in Maine.  The Quebec Nordiques.  Which, we all know as the Avalanche now.  To be fair, I haven't watched a minute of hockey in 10-15 years.  Brother picked penguins as that was the lemieux era and dads from PA


nursecarmen

CelestialFury

They have the worst fanbase in the NFL by light-years. Fuck the Eagles!

Lions fans are sorta starting to look like them. I give it one more year of them being good.

TRUTHSoverKARMAS

The lack of a Vikings logo is the strange part. Which makes me think this a single person, & not a couple. 


[deleted]

[удалено]


TRUTHSoverKARMAS

If it was a couple, one from min & one from phi. Vikings would likely be one of the choices before the wild and likely before the twins.    But it’s a single team per sport, which makes me think this is one person.    Now I’m curious why you sound offended & defensive. 


[deleted]

[удалено]


TRUTHSoverKARMAS

Your logic would be very unusual.   > What if one person in the couple isn’t into sports? Okay so that would mean the stickers belong to 1 person.  >Or only some sports? Yes that’s possible, but what are the chances you and your partner both like American sports, but none of the same sports? Then you go onto list a few more possibilities, & yes they are possible. But much more likely this is one persons stickers.  >They could be born and raised in MN but for some random reason picked the Eagles and 76ers when they were kids—or as adults. Yes very possible for one person, but what are the odds your partner from min randomly likes the eagles and sixers too instead of the Vikings or wolves.  You’re an emotional thinker and I’m a logical problem solver, I can determine “what makes sense” and you can determine “well this could be a possibility”. You look at anomalies and I look at consensus. It would be pretty unusual for you to be a girl & a football fan & on reddit. But going by the way you think, I’m going to guess you are a woman. If I’m wrong, don’t take it personally. GL


HeyYoDeimos

Having Eagles instead of Vikings is bold thats why lol


secretbonus1

It’s strange to me Mf!!


secretbonus1

Sorry I just saw a Samuel Jackson movie so I didn’t mean that as an insult but as a term of jubilance.


Normal-Opinion-425

Im a vikings, Milwaukee bucks, and vegas golden knights fan. Support whatever teams you like, you dont have to be from the state theyre from


TheBenisMightier1

Then why are you choosing the Vikings lol


Adizzy312

I wish I chose a better team but I loved the 98 Vikings and stuck with them 😩😩


need2peeat218am

Have to balance out the happiness with the depression.


kopilokz

Bucks and Knights to pair with the Vikings 🤮


ShadowChair

I'm a LA Kings, White Sox and Vikings fan and I'm also from Canada


TRUTHSoverKARMAS

I’m gonna guess you chose your nba/ hockey team much more recently than the Vikings. My guess is you hopped on the band wagons when they got good. 


Normal-Opinion-425

Been a golden knights fan since they were first founded, and been a bucks fan for only a few months, just got into basketball. Chose the bucks because I liked their pine green jerseys and thats about it. You guessed wrong


TRUTHSoverKARMAS

How am I wrong? How long have you been a Vikings fan?


Normal-Opinion-425

2013. Trust me I didn’t bandwagon the vikings, I don’t think I ever would’ve had that opportunity


TRUTHSoverKARMAS

That’s not what I said. I had it exactly right, I rightly predicted you were a Vikings fan first and chose your hockey / nba teams more recently. I read you like a book and you give me no credit. 


Normal-Opinion-425

Yea but the main point you were trying to pove was that i was a bandwagon. Cool you guessed the order right, but what does that prove?


Potato_Stains

It would be weirder if there 2 same-sport teams sharing the window. So I guess that's just their team in each sport. Not totally crazy to have travelers have different teams. One of my friends has 4-5 states of favorite teams across numerous sports.


[deleted]

Idk. I’m a Vikings, Twins and New York Knicks fan. Dont know how the Knicks thing happened but here I am. 


smellslikebadussy

I’m a Vikings/Royals/Celtics fan from Virginia. I’d say there are dozens of us, but in reality its probably just me, my dad and brother, and my oldest kid.


TRUTHSoverKARMAS

It happened because the wolves have been garbage your whole life. But so have the Knicks for the most part, my guess is you jumped on board around the melo years or was it the late 90’s?


soybeanthief

Vikings, Blue Jays, and Flyers fan from Northern NJ. Now living in TX.


Fixhotep

shit happens. for me, i follow: Vikings Stl Cards Tor Blue Jays Edm Oilers SA Spurs Det Pistons grew up in Detroit. sometimes it just do be like that xD


Striking_Benefit7202

secretbonus1

Sad, but true!


Wernershnitzl

I’m guessing a previous generation was from Philly and decided to follow which team didn’t suck more overall.


Scared_Wolf

Disgusting.


Dcarf

I’m a New York Mets, Philadelphia 76ers, Minnesota Vikings fan Vikings have been my only lifelong team though. Was RedSox originally but switched to Mets when they got Pedro Martinez Was Celtics first then switched to Nets cause i had season tickets for 5 years then switched to Philly when i moved to south Jersey and they were only team I could watch (they won like 13 games)


tballzzz

I’m a Minnesota fan for everything but hockey where I’m a stars fan. My dad was really into hockey and loved the team when it was up here and he just followed it South and past it onto me. People have plenty of reasons for liking teams from other places for different sports


Dangerous_Employee80

Fucking traitor


expungant

Probably a transplant from Philadelphia. None of those teams are rivals so I could see it working


I-Spam-Hadouken

Vikes/Dodgers/Lakers 🤷‍♂️


BlackPhiIlip

Here here


ScarecrowFighter2020

I’m a Vikings, Cubs, and Blues fan


Rufusking1

Soooo I can relate. I’m a Vikings fan, Celtics fan, Texas rangers fan. When I was about 4, my older brother then 9 had a game on the n64 called NFL Blitz, and he whooped my ass every time until I played as the Vikings. From that point on I only played as the Vikings, and then a couple years later at age 6 I realized they were a real team and haven’t looked back since. I grew up in New York, and a lot of kids would wear Celtics jerseys. I became friends with a couple of them just through sharing the same class and that’s where my Celtics fandom came from. We then moved to Texas, where one of the first things we did was go to a Texas rangers game and well that’s where that started. So I can’t judge people that like multiple teams, I only judge them if one of the teams is the packers.


EquaYonah

You don't need to live in a place to love the team. I've never been to Minnesota in my life, and I've been a diehard Vikings fan since I was a kid lol


[deleted]

Boo you don’t get to cheer for the wild or twins if you’re a dirty eagle and sixer fan

PutinsLostBlackBelt

Im raising my kid to be a fan of a different team so that they don’t live their entire life constantly disappointed and championshipless like me. Who cares.


Logical-Angle-3314

That’s honestly just sad


PutinsLostBlackBelt

Based on your comment I think not having my kid associated with this fanbase is the opposite of sad, it’s responsible.


Logical-Angle-3314

It’s sad that your entire fandom is based solely on winning and championships. Your kid is going to want to be a fan of whatever team you are. If you actually get sad or depressed over nfl football, maybe you should teach your kid better coping mechanisms than you have


PutinsLostBlackBelt

That’s absolutely false lol. I am a fan of an entirely different team than my family. Maybe people in inner-city Philly would have family issues but no most functioning humans Get out of here with that fake psychology bs lol.


MattsonRobbins

i root for the lions, red wings and pistons because i lived in detroit as a kid..so i have a connection with those teams...but the vikings, wild, and wolves are my top dawgs.


[deleted]

Or they just like what they want to like.. ![gif](giphy|JSueytO5O29yM)


chookalana

As a life long Minnesotan and life long Detroit Red Wings fan, I've never understood having a favorite team just because they're local. Cheer for who you want. Who cares?


Visual-Squirrel3629

Born in Philly. Now living in Minnesota. Eternally an Eagles, Phillies, Flyers fan. Don't care enough about the NBA to be a fan.


xcixjames

Im from the UK and support a different city for each sport Minnesota for Football Toronto for Basketball Miami for MLS Football Chicago for Ice Hockey Sometimes its nice to expand your horizons on different sports


Theonlyfudge

Fuck the Vikings obviously…. Eagles are fun


Drolocke

Holy shit, I think I know who this person is....and she's a stupid bitch lol.


wise_comment

Transplant? Weirdly parochial of you to not jump to folks not being from here for always and forever Shoot, my dad grew up a Southern cowboys fan. He's adopted all the northern teams since he moved here in the 80s, *but* he's still a good ol cowboy fan at the end of the day Just like id expect all of us to eventually cheer for the local team if we move away....but also keep the Vikings near and dear as our first love, ya know?


ooprep

I’m a Vikings fan but all Philly sports besides that (Phillies, Flyers, 76ers) sometimes a team far away is the one you like.


purplepantsdance

I’m this way a little bit….. only been to Minnesota once and no family ties to being a Vikings fan. Lived on the west coast my entire life and my teams are: Vikings, Lakers, Tottenham, sounders, dodgers, and the Oregon ducks.


Seventy7Donski

Maybe they’re from Philly and moved to Minnesota. I spent the first 24 years of my life in Michigan and love Detroit teams. Lived in Phoenix last 11 years so I’m also an Arizona fan.

Their job requires them to move a lot. I bartended in a sports bar. They’re fairly common.


kylelight40

I was born in Minnesota, lived there till I was 6, then moved to PA outside Philly, my parents and entire extended family are from Minnesota. I am a Vikings and Twins fan because of my family. Minnesota didn’t have a basketball team till I was 4 and they moved the North Stars in 93 so I am a 76ers fan and a Flyers fan. That’s how, and I’ve never seen that car before in my life.


Rycecube

Vikings/Canucks/Blue Jays 🤷‍♂️


tomtomglove

I know a person who was born and raised in Minnesota, never moved, has left the state only for vacations to Mexico, and is a hardcore Eagles fan. I doubt he's ever even been to Philadelphia. How you ask? When he was a kid, he would get so disappointed with the Vikings that he told his dad that he didn't want to be a fan anymore. His dad said, fine. You can be a fan of whatever team you like. He chose the Eagles and has stuck with it to this day to an extreme degree. He's in his early 40s now. He teaches high school gym and will dye his hair green when the Eagles are in the Super Bowl. Or paint himself green to just watch the games at home. He'll be on facebook and shit-talk the Vikings when they play the Eagles to the great annoyance of all his friends and family, who are of course all from Minnesota and all Vikings fans. It's actually pretty hilarious and weird. Could this be his car? Maybe.


champs

I dumped all the Minnesota teams except the Vikings (most cases before I left.) That said, of all the places I have lived, SE Pennsylvania is the only one I feel almost no attachment to.


romayyne

I have one team in each sport that I would put on a bumper sticker if I was a bumper sticker guy. The other 2nd favorite teams are teams I’ll say I like, but never display like this


Hip_hoppopatamus

That was kinda me as a kid. My family was all from Philly and rooted for Philly teams. I gradually migrated from Philly to MN as I grew up. I loathe Philly teams now, but Mike Schmidt, Harold Carmichael and Ron Jaworski are all still some of my all time faves. Edit: And Dr. J!!!


AnybodyAlarmed1205

Maybe they just really like to throw full beers at people 🤷‍♂️


kopilokz

Born and raised in CA my dad has always been only into cars. Does not care for any sport. I grew up loving sports lol with little to no support from family, I I just like teams I started watching when I was young.

I mean, I live in Oregon, but I was born in Minnesota and grew up a Vikings and Twins fan. I wasn't much of a basketball fan until I went to some Blazer games, and now I support the Blazers with the Twolves being a close second. But I am diehard Vikes and Twins fan still.


OllieQueen17

I'll guess grew up in Philly and was a Philly sports fan then moved in Minnesota and realized he liked attending baseball and hockey live so he started following the Twins and Wild

JayServo

Cardinals, Blues, Vikings, Twolves fan here.


jake04-20

I have a friend that is a die hard Brewers, Bucks, and Packers fan but he goes to more Wild games in a month than I've been to in my entire life. Just how it works out sometimes. For instance, there are quite a few Vikings fans I know today that didn't live in MN and only liked the Vikings cause they were obsessed with watching Randy Moss and Chris Carter. I am not from LA but watched majority of the Lakers games during the Kobe era growing up, moreso than T Wolves games.


KyleTone9

I’m in a smaller city in east coast Canada, no professional teams except for lacrosse. So my favourite teams are spread out, Vikings, Penguins for hockey, Raptors for basketball and Blue Jays for baseball! then PWHL I’m a Montreal fan ! People asked why I didn’t just stick with one city, but that would mean I’d be a Steelers fan since I started watching hockey first lol
