Research reveals the extremes sports fanatics would go to for their favorite team

Almost half of American sports fans have traveled out of the country to see a game, according to new research.

The survey of 2,000 self-identified “sports fanatics” looked at the extremes that respondents are willing to go to, in order to see their favorite competitions live and in person.

While 45% have left the country to see a game, results also found that 35% have specifically planned a vacation based on when and where their favorite team is playing.
