Harris Interactive, an authoritative American market research company, got such a result in the 20 12 annual survey: among 2 176 American adults, 34% listed American football as their favorite sport, while 16% chose baseball. However, the sport with the third largest number of votes was college football, and 1 1% of the respondents chose this sport. The fourth place is racing, and 8% of the respondents listed racing as their favorite sport. The support rate of American men's professional basketball NBA is only 7%.
Because of low love, NBA tickets are not sold very well, but with Jordan leading the NBA to the world, more foreigners like this sport now, and a large number of foreigners fly to the United States to watch NBA games every year.
