#56: The Number of Major Sports Teams By U.S. State
In America, sports teams are a very big deal. Not only do they mean a lot in the public sector, but the obsession starts early on in high school and then into college where many people progress into being star athletes. So, it only makes sense that every U.S. state has a lot of sports teams.

California has 19 major league sports teams, which is a lot. Florida and Texas tie with 10 major sports teams, while New York comes in fourth place with 9 major sports teams. Again, it isn’t surprising that these major states have so many successful sports teams.
