Twitter's Interactive Map Shows Where NBA Fans Are Around the U.S.



Did you know that the good people of Dillingham County, Alaska are rabid Chicago Bulls fans? Well now you do thanks to a sweet interactive map from Twitter that shows where each NBA team finds its strongest supporters.

The map, which Twitter published on Wednesday, allows you to filter by team to see where fans are located around the U.S. and Canada. Not surprising, the Bulls dominate the state of Illinois, but they also have a strong following in Alaska, with a quarter of Dillingham's residents rooting for the Bulls. Pretty impressive, even if Dillingham has a population of just 2,400.

But once you get into Southern Illinois the Bulls fandom shifts, with several counties naming the Lakers, Pacers, and even the Heat as their favorite team.

Play around with the map and even compare teams to see how the Bulls fans stack up to others in the league.
