your indoor lacrosse team won its 4th title in the last 5 years.

Yes, but I was talking more towards our RM friends from those states who root for teams from NYC and Dallas and universities in Texas. They know who they are.

Did anyone notice that Tampa-St. Petersburg was dead last at #388? Even worse than Yakima and the Tri-Cities????

No shit. Last I checked the Lightning were defending Cup champs, the Bucs have been competitive for years, and the Super Bowl comes through pretty frequently.

Wow, I would think a city would have to win a championship in something in the last 20 years to get so high on the list. I guess 2nd place is fitting though isn't it?

You don't have to have a championship to have good fans. Likewise, championships do not make great sports cities (though they should help).
I think St. Louis is too low, definitely should be ahead of Miami, and if it had an NBA team I'd say #3. Also Chicago should be close to top 5.
I see top 5 thusly:
1. Boston 2. Philly 3. St. Louis 4. Chicago 5. New York
Minneapolis should be top 10, at least they're close.
