Hockey : Canada and hockey or USA and Football?

Which country has a higher % of people who know little to no knowledge about their #1 sport and the business that operates the sport



Go into any bar in the States and watch a football game and 90% of the guys in there have little to no knowledge of football.You can spot them after the first set of downs.





In Canada I%26#039;m not sure except I know it%26#039;s cold and they live in Igloos :)




By virtue of Canada having roughly 1/10th the population of the US, I%26#039;d say that more Canadians understand the business of hockey as opposed to the US and the business of gridiron.





Raw numbers...again, by virtue of the population difference the Americans would come out on top.





The percentage of Canadians who either play hockey or have a kid playing hockey...you%26#039;re into a fairly steep percentage of the population relative to the % of Americans who play or have a kid playing organized gridiron.




I%26#039;m not sure but wouldn%26#039;t baseball be %26quot;America%26#039;s Sport%26quot; to spite footballs popularity growth over the last couple of decades??





I guess it depends on what you are using as the gauge for what the %26quot;#1%26quot; sport is.




I would say Canada and hockey. Events like the Winter Olympics and the World Juniors can unite even the fiercest hockey enemy in Canada.




i%26#039;m american- i hardly know stuff about football. but know a lot about hockey.





but-canada%26#039;s hockey is a religion.




id say usa and football!
