Not sure I understand how the word 'Best' is being interpreted.

With Forbes, it's kind of hard to understand what the meaning of the word "is" is...

one criterion is "% of population attending or watching", a stat also known as "how could Green Bay NOT win?" Green Bay has 100,000 people.

didn't they struggle to sell out a playoff game?

Yeah, but it was like -40 degrees that game. It only got 12 below where I live and the whole town practically shut down. You are at a very real risk of hypothermia if you're in that kind of weather for any length of time.

#7 Cows? That's a damn lie. Self proclaimed "America's team" - I don't recall voting whose America's team was but I demand a recount.

SMH.

Never mind that. How did the SuperDome not rank in the "NFL's Most Overpriced Beer" ranking. $9 for a 12oz beer!? Are you kidding me? Does any stadium in the NFL have the nerve to charge more than that?!?!
