Significant portion of Saints fans enjoy fantasy football more than Saints games

New Orleans Saints fans have dealt with four consecutive seasons of heartbreak at this point. From this Minneapolis Miracle, to the no-call, to the overtime touchdown, to Tom Brady coming to the NFC and heading straight to the Super Bowl, fans have remained devout. However, it appears they’re also getting tired, and looking for football entertainment elsewhere.

According to a bookies.com study, a remarkably high portion of Saints fans now enjoy fantasy football more than Saints games themselves. 48 percent of them, to be precise. Some of the numbers are less surprising, like 87 percent of football fans finding that fantasy makes football more enjoyable to watch.
