I've traveled a lot of states and seem to always find Packers, Steelers and Cowboys fans abound. I even have found Broncos fans all the way in Alabama.

I'll give Pats fans a break (their real fans that is, not the recent bandwagon hoppers). Of all the teams fan bases I've hung out on forums and met in person, Pats fans are easily the most tolerable and most respectful towards me as a Saints fan. All you have to do is ignore the "Brady is the GOAT" and the Roger Goodell conspiracy theories (you'd think our fan base would go easy on them cause they hate Goodell like us), and they are actually fun to chat football with. Their old time fans can be cool as hell; they did suffer a humiliating SB loss in the 80's and another in the 90's. Their dynasty is still new in comparison to Pittsburgh and Dallas' history.

Agree. All around the country I get approached by people when wearing a Saint's logo. Other than ATL (and possibly MN) they all think highly of the organization. At last season's game here in Cinci, we ran into Saint's fans that had no affiliation with NO, LA, Brees etc. Some families drove over six hours. For some reason, they just loved the Saints.

I think Brees' too short, too injured as well as the Katrina recovery, small market story draws attention and has made the Saints "The" underdog of the NFL. People who tend to pull for the underdog are drawn to the Saints.
