Is Patriots nation enjoying a few more cold ones than fans of other teams this football season?

A new ranking from drinking publication VinePair and breathalyzer maker BACtrack says New England fans are the second-drunkest in the league.

How did they come to that conclusion? BACtrack looked at data (collected anonymously) from their smartphone breathalyzers during Sunday games this season.

Dallas Cowboys fans lead the way with an average blood alcohol content level of .062 percent. Right behind them were Patriots fans at .061 percent, just a few ticks under the .08 legal limit.

Rounding out the top five were fans of the New Orleans Saints, Arizona Cardinals and Indianapolis Colts.

When the two companies made an “NFL Fandom sobriety map” in 2015, Patriots fans came in 18th with a BAC of only .041.

BACtrack says this year’s top five teams all had a winning percentage of 50 percent or higher over the last decade. And talk about a Super Bowl hangover – Atlanta Falcons fans had the lowest BAC level this year.

Who's #1? I'd guess green bay.

 

Oh it's dallas. Makes sense i guess

[Patriotsfatboy1 1,432]

Seems like bogus data. There is no way that those people are under the legal limit.

[Gladiators 1,904]

I think GB was removed from the list. They're in drinking league of their own.

There is no way that New England is ahead of New Orleans.

 

In New England, they shut off beer sales at the end of half-time. When I went to New Orleans, they had 2 beer sizes (16 oz and 22 oz). In the 4th quarter, they were still selling beer, but they ran out of 16 oz cups so they were selling 22 oz for the 16 oz price. I LOVE that place!!

[TommyGavin 788]

I came in here to say has to be the Bills as #1

 

Or considering Bunny. Saints.

They finally put and end to selling beer after the third quarter. Doesn't stop people from buying a few extras.

 

Now they sell 24 oz cans. It looks so white trash watching people drink from a large can that they normally never would.

New England has to be up there for opiates as well.

Patriots fans in the pre-kraft era were way drunker and rowdier. They banned Monday night games in foxboro for a few years because of it.

[Cruzer 1,992]

Dallas #1? No way - too many divas here to top this list.

[Gladiators 1,904]

Jerry paid to be #1. Did not care what the list was for.

What???

 

Look, I thought it was awesome that I could also take my beer out of the stadium in NOLA. Now they stop selling after the 3rd? Poosays.

 

Now giving a drunk a can... that is a safety issue

Where did you get this bs list from?

[listen2me 23 1,541]

The Bills not numbers 1 on this thing makes it an automatic fail.

 

Bills fans are the drunkest. Easily.

Id say bills eagles raiders saints are the top four in some order.

 

Maybe the browns in five. Have to be drunk to show up for that crap.

 

NE has too many band wagoners and women to cut it. Probably did back in the day. Probably will again soon. Despair brings out the drunks.

So, in NE's defense, there are some things to consider.

1. We tailgate pretty well. Not the best, but not bad.

2. We have lots of fair weather season ticket holders who sell their tickets to rookie fans who get totally cocked

3. We have plenty of people from other teams who come to Foxboro because they don't get harassed as much as in other stadiums

 

The end result is that we have quite few folks who never make the 2nd half because they are passed out or in an ambulance.

Nobody likes a quitter.

Most stoned goes to Denver.

 

I wouldn't be surprised to find out that they started selling Edibles in the damn Stadium.

[titans&bucs&bearsohmy! 2,745]

Now that I think about it, you always hear horror stories of how bad the fans are at jets games too. P!ssing off the sky ways, demanding chicks show their t!ts before letting them pass, brawling.

 

The probably gotta be top five.

Current events proved conclusively that New Yorkers don't need alcohol to be classless loutish aszsholes.

This is true, but it helps.

 

I wouldnt go to an away game on either coast. You hear horrible sh!t from the Bay Area as well. I guess Seattle would be ok.

Amazing the difference between a Jets game and a Giants game.

Here is an excerpt from back in the day in New England:

 

During its six visits to Schaefer Stadium (renamed Sullivan Stadium in 1983, and then Foxboro Stadium in ’87) from 1972 to ’81, “Monday Night Football” might as well have been billed as Anarchy Night in Foxborough. In their third “Monday Night Football” appearance on Oct. 18, 1976, the Patriots made an excellent impression on the field. In a 41-7 rout of the Jets, the Patriots ran for a staggering 330 yards on 47 carries, with second-year quarterback Steve Grogan picking up 103 yards and a touchdown on seven carries. Wrote Will McDonough in Tuesday’s Globe: “. . . [the Patriots] smashed the Jets from start to finish.” Unfortunately for the franchise’s image, the Jets weren’t the only thing that was smashed. Reports at the time indicated there were at least 60 arrests that night at the stadium. Fans threw bottles and cherry bombs onto the field during the game. Others ran on the field and interrupted play throughout the second half. Distracted by the blowout, Cosell began commenting on the bouts in the crowd on the broadcast.

“In a game like that, where you have the outcome in control early, as a player you become more aware of the crowd,’’ said Grogan recently. “And when you hear the crowd making noise where there shouldn’t be any noise being made, you look around and see what’s going on, you start seeing the ruckus. When you found out what had really happened, it was truly scary.”

 

One fan had been stabbed in the parking lot. A fan stole an injured policeman’s gun and began waving it around, yelling, “Come and get me.” In the chaos, two men died of heart attacks. In his column later in the week, the Globe’s Leigh Montville shared an anecdote detailing a particularly reprehensible scene.

 

“While one of the victims was dying, an ambulance attendant gave him mouth to mouth resuscitation in the stands,’’ he wrote. “The attendant reported that while he worked, someone urinated on him from behind.”

 

A similar outbreak of chaos marred the Patriots’ 23-14 win over the Broncos on Sept. 29, 1980, with fights inside and outside of the stadium and at least 49 arrests. When the Dallas Cowboys came to Foxborough in September 1981 on a Monday night, the town’s board of selectmen preemptively attempted to have kickoff moved up to 8 p.m. before ceding to the Patriots’ (and presumably ABC’s) wishes to keep it at 9 p.m. The scene surrounding the Cowboys’ 35-21 win was another brawl-addled mess, including a stabbing and an assault on a police officer.

 

Foxborough decided that “Monday Night Football” would not return to the town, and for 14 years — a span covering the entirety of Hall of Fame linebacker Andre Tippett’s career — ABC obliged.

About right for a stadium named after a cheap beer.

 

Also, no Eagles fans makes this study bogus. Philthy is the worst.

Yup. Sub human animals.
