High school and college athletes missed out on well over a year of playing time, and the NCAA had no choice but to grant players another year of eligibility. Professional athletes faced challenges too, as they were forced into shortened or cancelled seasons. Their stadiums and arenas remained empty, which meant <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/urbanmatter.com\/chicago\/these-professional-athletes-are-giving-back-in-big-ways-during-the-pandemic\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">many stadium workers needed support without their jobs<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. And when the pros did return to play, they were met with endless amounts of protocols and nose-swab tests.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ultimately it was for the best. But what about what happened to sports fans?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">TickPick wanted to learn how shutdowns affected sports, and more specifically how they affected fans. They recently published a study where <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tickpick.com\/a-year-without-sports\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">they polled over 1,000 sports fans across the U.S.<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to uncover exactly how their feelings changed over the pandemic. They dived into everything, from interest and engagement, sports betting and purchases, and even fan fallouts. So, Chicago Bulls fans, let\u2019s see how we did!<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-402059 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/urbanmatter.com\/chicago\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/tickpick-loyalty.jpg\" alt=\"chicago bulls fans\" width=\"772\" height=\"577\" srcset=\"https:\/\/urbanmatter.com\/chicago\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/tickpick-loyalty.jpg 772w, https:\/\/urbanmatter.com\/chicago\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/tickpick-loyalty-300x224.png 300w, https:\/\/urbanmatter.com\/chicago\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/tickpick-loyalty-370x277.png 370w, https:\/\/urbanmatter.com\/chicago\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/tickpick-loyalty-406x303.png 406w, https:\/\/urbanmatter.com\/chicago\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/tickpick-loyalty-600x448.png 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 772px) 100vw, 772px\" \/><\/h2>\n<h2>Chicago Bulls Fans Keep it 100<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Who\u2019s surprised at the loyalty of Chicago Bulls fans after over a year long of shutdowns? We sure aren\u2019t. Heck, it\u2019s an even more surprising statistic from TickPick\u2019s study given how Chicago didn\u2019t even have the option of <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/urbanmatter.com\/chicago\/heres-what-to-expect-when-the-nba-season-2019-20-returns-july-31st\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">playing in the NBA bubble<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> the league created to finish off last season. You\u2019d think teams like the LA Lakers or Miami Heat from last year\u2019s NBA Finals would\u2019ve gained fans. But surprisingly enough, the survey data pointed to the opposite. The Miami Heat saw themselves listen in the top three of NBA franchises who lost the most fans during the pandemic. The other two on that list were the Memphis Grizzlies and San Antonio Spurs. Fans of the latest NBA Champion team, the Lakers, actually remained pretty loyal unlike their final opponent from last year as only 15.7% of fans surveyed stopped supporting them. Although, when the dust settled, the Chicago Bulls fans came out on top with only 13.8% of fans surveyed indicating their halt in support.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-402060 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/urbanmatter.com\/chicago\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/tickpick-finals.jpg\" alt=\"chicago bulls fans\" width=\"799\" height=\"486\" srcset=\"https:\/\/urbanmatter.com\/chicago\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/tickpick-finals.jpg 799w, https:\/\/urbanmatter.com\/chicago\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/tickpick-finals-300x182.png 300w, https:\/\/urbanmatter.com\/chicago\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/tickpick-finals-370x225.png 370w, https:\/\/urbanmatter.com\/chicago\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/tickpick-finals-406x247.png 406w, https:\/\/urbanmatter.com\/chicago\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/tickpick-finals-600x365.png 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 799px) 100vw, 799px\" \/><\/h2>\n<h2>What Else Did TickPick Find?<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Loyalty and NBA fandom weren\u2019t the only thing TickPick looked at in their survey. Sports betting received plenty of interest, and they found that 53.7% of respondents said they still placed bets on sports in the past year. Football led the charge for bettors, as a whopping 78.4% of NFL fans placed a bet, compared to the second place leader in basketball, where 47.1% of NBA fans placed a bet. You can definitely thank the Super Bowl for that one.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another fun finding from the study showed that 17% of NBA fans would pay up to one bitcoin for their team to make the NBA Finals. At the time of TickPick\u2019s study, BTC was still hovering at $60,o00. Over a third said they would give up alcohol and cigarettes for a year. As diehard Chicago Bulls fans, we easily agree with these choices. However, it might be a lot easier, and cheaper, to just go buy a ticket for a game.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tickpick.com\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">TickPick<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, you can purchase tickets to games, events, and more without annoying service fees like other ticket resellers.
