Which US college basketball fans bring the most heat?

College basketball fans in the South claim to be the most knowledgeable about the sport.

That’s according to a new survey, conducted by OnePoll on behalf of Frank’s RedHot, of 2,000 college basketball fans, split by the West, South, Midwest and East regions.

Results showed that those same Southerners are also most likely to drown their sorrows in snacks when their team loses (24%) and are also most likely to pull out the snacks that are relevant to their team or region for good luck (18%).

Eastern college basketball fans, however, are most likely to try not to toss their plate due to excitement or sadness (14%).
