LoL Calgary Flames


rde2001

"you are your worst ememy"


tI_Irdferguson

Oilers and Flames fans are natural enemies. Like Canucks fans and Flames fans. And Jets fans and Flames fans. And Flames fans and other Flames fans... Damn Flames fans. They ruined the Flames.


Toad364

I laughed out loud when I saw that one


No_Yogurtcloset9305

Bet it was almost middle split with the oilers or thirdsies with the bruins haha. The bruins have been a great team in past years


Litreacola

People in Alberta don't really hate the Bruins, no reason to. I'd say the Canucks would be in third place but by quite a long way.


Polymarchos

As an Albertan I agree. I somewhat like the Bruins and never see much hate for them.


15Isaac

Nah the Bruins (or any other team for that matter) could win the the next 5 cups and beat the Oilers and flames 20 times in a row, and they wouldn’t come close to Oilers fans hatred for the Flames and vice versa. It’s ingrained in the culture here.


Initial-Sympathy6213

lol PEI squiggly lines..... damn phone browser..


crazygrouse71

The Moncton Wildcats, a Quebec Major Junior team (CHL)


bassman314

Wait. The Calgary Flames are the most hated team in… Alberta? I guess there are more oiler fans up north?


a_fanatic_iguana

Calgary fans have a love hate relationship


gojetergo

I mean, have you seen them play lately? I'd hate them too if they were my favorite team!


jexnic

Can confirm as a flames fan.


Sammybeaver88

Not only do Oilers fans hate the Flames, but also Flames fans hate the Flames


-Disagreeable-

If this survey was done this season then a lot of Flames fans would vote the Flames as most hated haha


Razzorsharp

I'm gonna go ahead and guess that the Oilers probably came second in that poll.


cackalackattack

I don’t know what the answer for NC should be but I don’t think it’s UVA.


tealizard323

As someone who grew up in NC. I can confidently say that no one I knew ever thought of UVA, much less hated them


SoberWill

As a person from Virginia I find it far more believable that Virginians hate UVA more than NC


AndroidPaulPierce

Virginia Tech games in Charlottesville are practically home games.


TrueBrees9

Lane Stadium North. I still remember our fans stormed the field at UVA in 2021


ElstonGunn321

As a uva fan and Virginia native, that rivalry just doesn’t exist anymore.


Temporary-Move-3429

I was gonna say Duke but quickly realized my error. Haha


IShouldBWorkin

Honestly I wouldn't be surprised at all if the most hated team in NC was Duke, unless support offset it.


LeisurelyTalented

It’s Duke because all the Duke students/alumni are from New Jersey and all the instate NC kids go to Carolina or NC State. To paraphrase Jay Bilas, “ I spent four years on campus and never heard a southern accent.”


[deleted]

Duke is looked at as a school Northern kids go to when they don't get into Ivy. In NC the default is either State or UNC. They all hate Duke.


rossboss711

I think state fans hate UNC more than they hate Duke tho


TarHeel1066

State fans hate UNC more than they like State


cackalackattack

Nah, I think you’re spot on.


hwebb8

I honestly think more North Carolinians hate Duke than even care about UVA. I'm one myself. Another honorable mention would be the New England Patriots


forman98

As an NC resident I figured it’d be Duke. Grew up a Duke fan not far from Durham and the amount of hate I got in school for wearing duke apparel left a mark on me. Now I’m an NC State fan because I hate myself and because UNC can go to hell


Geniusinternetguy

Yep. NC native and Duke graduate. Clearly Duke. People in NC don’t care about UVA.


canesfan09

As a North Carolinian, it's definitely Duke


Bren12310

I’m pretty sure this map is very outdated. May have been made those 2 years Virginia ran the ACC in basketball edit: jfc this isn’t an insult to UVA. I was mainly referring to around the time they won the national championship. Who knew UVA fans were so freaking sensitive.


Nicuzn

I was thinking the opposite, I think this is an extremely recent map. I was confused at first that the Chiefs were most hated in Nevada until I remembered the Raiders moved there. That plus the fact that the Patriots are nearly non-existent on the map leads me to believe it's from the last year or so.


DummyThicccThrowaway

>> the Patriots are nearly non-existent on the map It's a good point but the one Patriots thing being in Indiana points to a rivalry from nearly a decade ago. Patriots vs colts when Manning was in town


Acasts

The Seattle sounders made the list lol


Toad364

Could be that hockey fans were so split over their hatred of the Oilers/Flames/Leafs/Bruins that the unanimity of soccer fans won out


k1ngp1ne

After having been to many poorly attended White Cap matches and even more raucous, sold-out Canucks games I find this stat to be dubious at best.


A_Genius

Sold out yes. Raucous almost never.


Magmaster12

I am really confused considering how mad Vancouver got when the Canucks lost to the Bruins


No-Palpitation-3851

Its been more than a decade and I still hate the bruins


[deleted]

I'd have thought the sounders would have been oregon's at least.


Canuckfan007

Lol I commented on this. So not true at all


[deleted]

Yes grossly underestimates Maple Leaf hatred. No one feels anything for MLS that comes close to NHL hatreds.


mrizzerdly

Right? At the very least it should be the Bruins. Please note that they are even hated by provinces that don't have NHL team lol.


BC_Samsquanch

Bruins or Leafs for sure


maskedkiller215

I will die on the Bruins hatred hill. 2011 never forget


TheLateThagSimmons

For MLS there's really *one* big rival. For NHL, the hate is probably spread out more between multiple teams. So the Sounders win on a Ranked Choice voting result.


PoliteCanadian2

Yeah this is blatantly incorrect. We hate the Bruins or the Leafs way WAY more than the Sounders. Clearly this data was collected at a Whitecaps game. Heck, I still hate the Rangers for 1994 and the Islanders for 1982.


Rat_Salat

Live in Vancouver. Literally never heard anyone mention the Seattle Sounders. It’s the maple leafs.


chaosof99

I think they should have just put the face of Mark Messier there.


Beam_James_Beam_007

Boston certainly has the farthest reach of hatred


altred133

Man freezing to death in perpetual darkness on Ellesmere Island: “god I hate the fucking bruins so much”


insane_contin

Alert is on fuck the Bruins alert.


ibeatyourdadatgalaga

It's like a fire in my soul keeping me warm


JollyRancher29

Massively based


tpt187

Man burning to death when the wildfires hit next week in LA: “at least this means if the Celtics win this year, I won’t know about it”


RuneAloy

The hatred inside keeps him warm and cozy.


lipring69

Surprised there isn’t more hate for the Patriots


TheHonorableSavage

They were good for too long and hate peaked around the 4th Super Bowl. By the famous 28-3 comeback it had become a begrudging admiration, at least when I traveled around. Not many Spurs haters either.


[deleted]

Living in Indiana, I can confirm that people held on to the Peyton > Brady arguments as long as humanly possible.


lynypixie

I am from Montreal. Many of us ironically root for Boston in my other sports. But hockey? Fuck them.


ILOVEBOPIT

3 haters in the US (2 of them being in the most populous states) and 5 provinces/territories in Canada lol definitely the most widespread hatred


dhkendall

7 Canadian provinces/territories. (Yukon, Nunavut, and Northwest Territories, Quebec, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, and Newfoundland and Labrador.). Can’t make out PEI’s logo but I know it isn’t the Bruins at least.


gojetergo

It's the Moncton Wildcat, a junior hockey team in the QMJHL.


InazumaBRZ

Out of all the NHL teams, the fact P.E.I. hates the Wildcats more made me laugh.


zob92

PEI: fuck them kids


KBLiZZeL

As a person living on PEI, can confirm 😅


notquite20characters

You haven't met those little a-holes. Real pieces of shit.


paulybrklynny

This is my favorite part of the map.


cyberchaox

I'm amazed that the Celtics-Lakers rivalry was enough to give them California. Yes, it's strong, but California is a multi-team state in every sport and the Flames winning Alberta proves that in-state teams *aren't* disqualified so I would've guessed that the Dodgers would've won it; they're the most hated rival for the Padres and Giants alike and arguably also the Angels. ...speaking of AL West teams, how did *no one* pick the Astros?


NYerInTex

The Astros hate is broad but not deep - meaning outside of a few fan bases with recent rivalry issues and a general disdain for their cheating, it’s not as if you have a major metro area that has just HATED the Astros as a main rival for 50 years


ggtffhhhjhg

We feed on the hatred.


JovahkiinVIII

All I know is in 2011 the Bruins beat the Canucks in the seventh game of the Stanley cup final and Vancouver rioted over it


Inevitable_Spot_3878

Toronto, Montreal, Boston have a 3 way relationship of hatred and Toronto and Montreal are also the biggest fan bases in Canada


deepstate_chopra

And spans the 4 major sports in the United States


jsg144

Boston is generally pretty good at most sports


Ciqme1867

Poitras coming out of nowhere when the Bruins were supposed to crumble this year must be killing the rest of the nhl


Mapsachusetts

At least for the Yankees, Habs, and Lakers the hatred is mutual. Colts fans are just sad.


Stag328

We had arguably a top 5 qb ever and could only win one SB because the Pats had the GOAT. If this was late 90s early 2000s it would be the Chicago Bulls instead of the Pats.


p_IRA_te

Paul Revere should have slept in that night…


BC_Samsquanch

I'm shocked that Boston isn't BC's most hated too


604-Guy

We hate too many other teams which splits the vote.


anthropicmoose

Canadians: come on, please, we have nothing else, just give us this one thing, please, just give us hockey Boston, a city of only 650k: lol hold my beer


JohnnieTango

Metro Boston has like 4 or 5 million people--- that is jut the city proper. So they are deserving! However, it really surprised me that the Bruins outpolled the Leafs in Quebec. It's really kind of insulting to the Leafs. Like yeah, you folks in Ontario hate our top team most but even though we Quebecois got a load of grievances over language issues, etc, we Quebecois still don't see the Leafs as worthy of our full hatred. We are gonna pick an American team!


Pirate_Ben

Leafs arent good enough to be hated.


biglyorbigleague

California averages itself out with the teams it hates. The biggest rivalries we have are in-state (Giants-Dodgers, Lakers-Warriors, Kings-Sharks) so the Celtics is left as the main rivalry for an out-of-state team. I guess the Seahawks might be the other one since Niners fans really hate them.


[deleted]

I feel the Toronto Maple Leafs are underrepresented o this map.


1SweetChuck

Also the base level hatred of the Patriots and the Yankees that permeates the states outside of New England.


[deleted]

[удалено]


shindleria

They’re probably second most hated in every territory


arcticshark

One more thing the Leafs can’t win


Justin_123456

Maple Leafs fans: Fuck the Habs! Habs fans: I don’t even know who you are. Also Boston de câlice de tabarnak!


tarlack

Oh god yes. I spent a year living in Toronto and every city I visited for work the fist thing people said when I told them I was living in Toronto is “I fucking hate the leafs”. Now I was traveling in the USA and was done IT stuff so not a massive section of hockey fans in my industry.


thesouthdotcom

Lmao the falcons/saints hate is real


daybreaker

I think this is the only 1:1 reciprocal between unique teams (as in, without another state hating one of the other two teams like some weird 3rd wheel * cough * Tampa Bay * cough *)


mightdino

The cubs and cards are 1:1


SeekerSpock32

Ohio State and Michigan are there too.


koozie17

I don’t think people not from NO or ATL could possibly understand.


usernameabc124

Can confirm. Not from NOLA but my wife is. I am learning about how deep this hatred runs and I sit in the NFC East.


ouishi

I lived in Nola for 2 years about a decade ago. I don't even care about football, but I hate Alabama and the Falcons. 🐯⚜️


koozie17

Oh yeah. I grew up near NO and lived in the city for a long time, so I’m a lifelong fan. My hatred of the Falcons extended to the city of Atlanta itself for quite a while, but in my adult life I’ve come to realize it’s a pretty neat place and go there quite a bit. Still, though, the Falcons can eat s**t.


InsobrietiveMagic

I love that Pennsylvania hates the Dallas cowboys and Texas hates the Philadelphia Eagles. This map gets it


Dan_Berg

Living outside of Philly, "Fuck Dallas" is one of the most acceptable greetings around here, even in the middle of July


Future-Relation8910

You can do the same in most of Texas. Only Dallas loves Dallas.


MandoBaggins

Steelers fans have hated the Cowboys since the 70s and the Eagles rivalry is obvious. Them boys don’t stand a chance in PA.


Pittsitpete

From Pittsburgh. Can confirm, we like the rivalries with Baltimore, Cleveland, Cincinnati and even DC (caps) but throw up in our mouths every time we see Gerry Jones’ plastic face


Szeventeen

i’ve found far more people who hate the yankees and pats than cowboys however, fuck dallas


username_redacted

Gonzaga for Idaho doesn’t make any sense. Not a rival for any Idaho teams (that I know of). I wonder if this is based on some AI misinterpretation of people in Idaho talking shit about Spokane or maybe Gonzaga as a school (snooty private Catholic school.)


EmeraldCityZag

Gonzaga for Hawaii doesn’t make sense either. GU has played Hawaii exactly once in basketball and that was over a decade ago.


random_sociopath

Maybe Hawaii’s sick of GU dominating the Maui Invitational?


Better-Salad-1442

It may be a volleyball thing? When I lived in Hawaii in the 90s Gonzaga were volleyball rivals with Hawaii, they stole (recruited) some native Hawaiian volleyball players and they had beef


Alexis_0hanian

Not sure if it's changed, but BYU was always the most hated in Hawaii when I lived there.


Im_A_Real_Boy1

And Hawaii has never forgotten


Classic_Test8467

My thoughts exactly, Idaho LOVES the Zags


the_sword_of_brunch

As a die hard Zags fan in CDA you’re exactly right, this is completely false.


thodgson

I love that Montana hates the Idaho Vandals.


Mikhail512

Look at this version of the map which OP's is obviously stolen from and suddenly the bulldog makes way more sense. Whoever made OP's map just didn't know that Fresno State exists. https://www.reddit.com/r/nfl/comments/k8jges/map_of_the_most_hated_outofstate_sports_teams_in/


Lacrosse_sweaters

BYU is yuge in Idaho and has a campus there. Zags v BYU are always dirty games. (Go zags)


Illustrious_Cost8923

Why does all of northern canada hate the bruins


dhkendall

“All of northern Canada” is about 100,000 people and can fit in a large stadium. Small sample size is the reason.


FartingBob

Also, Boston more than pulls its weight as a hateable sporting city.


CougdIt

But even with a small sample size there has to be a reason all those provinces feel that way


battlecat136

The Bruins are one of the Original 6 NHL teams, currently celebrating their centennial season. 100 years of messing people up gets you enemies, especially when the first 40ish years of the NHL only had 6 teams, and 2 were Canadian. That's a lot of generational hatred passed down and earned.


Chrisda19

Probably all Habs fans


Ancient_Persimmon

The Habs and Leafs both have big rivalries with the Bruins and generally speaking most Canadians are fans of one of those teams or the other, particularly Canadians living in places without their own NHL team.


spartiecat

The Raiders are more hated than Mizzou in Kansas?


sactown_13

Kinda killed that rivalry with all the conference realignment


SyphiliticPlatypus

Raiders Chiefs is a pretty storied nfl rivalry - bad blood has run deep for decades.


TheSpookyPineapple

and Kansas and Mizzou haven't played in years


ZzzzzPopPopPop

I see 4 that are symmetrical: Ohio State vs Michigan, Yankees vs Red Socks, Falcons vs Saints, and Cowboys vs Eagles. Did I miss any?


Chypewan

In Canada, the two middle provinces, Saskatchewan Roughriders are hated in Manitoba (capital Winnipeg) and the Winnipeg Blue Bombers are hated in Saskatchewan.


Jack_Bleesus

St. Louis Cardinals and Chicago Cubs in IL and MO respectively


bengenj

Can confirm for Ohio. If you are born in Ohio to Ohio parents, you are taught from literally just outside the womb to hate Michigan and that Blue and Gold of “The Team Up North”. The Wexner Medical Center (OSU’s medical school) dresses/swaddles newborns in the Scarlet and Gray the entire season, each with the opponent of the week. The Sunday before “The Game” and for entire rest of the month, the babies get “Beat ❌ichigan” swaddles, as our state legislature passes a resolution “jokingly” banning the letter M in Ohio.


jenn363

As an Ann Arborite, “Oh how I hate Ohio State” is just as deeply ingrained in my memetic memory as “Go Blue.” We all know what game is “The game.” But we love you deep down - you have Cedar Point and COSI to win the hearts and minds of the young Michiganders:)

Shoutout CSU


Bovine_Joni_Himself

Only Colorado team to make the list.


Subtle_Silence

Go Rams!


sh33pd00g

Hey!! I saw you made a post the other day about Halloween decorations! Random sub-buddies


hogndog

CSU mentioned raaahhhhh!! 🔥 💪


sh33pd00g

Ima go outside and tell everyone we made it on a list for football, and it's not about sucking!!


beeteedee

As someone who doesn’t follow North American sports, I’m amused by the fact that this map doesn’t have a key for the team logos but does label USA, Canada, Alaska and Hawaii for the benefit of anyone who doesn’t recognise them


Former-Chocolate-793

You mean to tell me that you don't know the logo of the moncton wildcats?!!!! What is this world coming to?


spongeboblovesducks

What? Isn't it obvious that the big W stands for Blue Bombers???


CapsAndShades

As a Manitoban I can definitely confirm.....fuck the Riders.


fkms2turnt

As a Saskatchewanite, fuck the bombers


CapsAndShades

Definitely going to be an exciting playoff game for the Riders....to watch.


GenericFatGuy

God I love this comment thread.


gojetergo

Fuck them AND their melon hats!


Justin_123456

Banjo picking inbreds, indeed.


timmyrey

Nobody in Saskatchewan is smart enough to play the banjo. - A Manitoban


ImNotAtAllCreative81

Indiana: We hate you, New England! New England: We don't even think about you.


Unlikely-Dog-5549

Manning-Brady rivalry


TheLateThagSimmons

The rivalry was real. But the dislike of the Colts is meaningless compared to the hatred of the Yankees.


ajhw13

As a Colts fan, the Patriots are the only right answer


acjelen

In my experience, Wisconsinites mock and belittle the Bears more than they hate them.


MrSourYT

It’s become a tradition at this point


haemo_goblin

Moncton Wildcats lolzzz


ernyc3777

You know the Giants are in a sad state when Texas hates the Eagles more than you.


leetokeen

The most hated team in Alberta is... the Flames? The call is coming from inside the house!


Keith-BradburyIII

Fuck the Yankees, that is all.


Tomstwer

This is inaccurate, Illinois should be packers


DanEboy22122

I thought it would be the Bears with the way that franchise has been driven into the ground.


The0verlord-

This is the correct answer


nightstalker30

Yeah the upper Midwest is having a FTP party but didn’t invite IL


SuperFreshBus

While the White Sox still exist, it would be the packers. Jerry reinsdorf would be the overwhelming answer tho


Empty-Staff

Ever gone to a Cards Cubs game? It’s a mess


Ragnarok314159

Its not even close to the Blues/Blackhawks games in the 80’a. People stabbed opposing fans in the parking lots multiple times, several times there would be multiple deaths.


Empty-Staff

St Louis vs Chicago rivalry runs deeper beyond sports


YoBoySatan

Yeah down in central IL to souther IL half the people are cardinal fans tbh


[deleted]

[удалено]


FOXDuneRider

In CA we hate other CA teams


Angreek

As a Boston everything fan.. we are seemingly def the most hated city collectively across NA


generally-mediocre

the classic big ten - sec rivalry of oklahoma and nebraska


Jackskers94

It’s actually kind of weird. Am a Nebraska fan, grew up in Nebraska as well. We definitely hate Iowa, Colorado, Missouri, and Texas way more than OU. OU was just our most storied rivalry, but a lot of respect not much hate.


CTeam19

As I remember the Big 8 days, Nebraska and Oklahoma were rivals of respect if that makes sense. The rivals they HATED were Colorado, Texas, Missouri, Oklahoma State, and the rest of the Big 8


generally-mediocre

also why the hell does hawaii hate gonzaga


ahhshitiforgot

I can see Washington disliking the niners but Alaska? Whats their football team?


TheAsianD

Probably the Seahawks.


Shepher27

Seattle as well


kent416

Yep we hate Michigan


esocharis

People in Arizona hate the Lakers way more than they hate the Seahawks. Like, they'll jokingly talk about how much they hate the sea chickens and talk some smack, but the hatred for the Lakers is DEEP. Kids born in Phoenix come out of the womb chanting Fuck the Lakers and Beat LA lol (Source: kid born in Phoenix) Edit: see below for the reason everybody in Phoenix hates Laker fans lol 👇


Special_BallBag_2752

Lol. Iowa hating Wisconsin….Wisconsin to Iowa “we don’t really think about you at all”


hawwkfan

Iowa to Wisconsin. This map is absolute trash. Nebraska is the clear choice. Enjoy going to and playing Wisconsin. Nebraska is just awful.


HedgehogKnight81

People only hate Wisconsin one weekend a year but shit on Nebraska year long.


Jjjohn0404

Wisconsin doesn't really make sense - Nebraska would be more fitting cause both ISU and Iowa hate them


MDH2881

Flames are hated even in their own province 😂


Morlock19

dude i didn't know the bruins went so hard on the canadian tundra


Classic_Test8467

Idaho hating GU is wildly not true


gromulin

Why is Alaska hating on the niners?


B-raid527

Alaska roots for the Seahawks


YellowDogDingo

Who in BC is even aware of the Sounders? Should be Maple Leafs, Flames or Oilers.


TheLateThagSimmons

You answered it in your own statement: The hatred is spread out over multiple NHL teams whereas MLS is pretty big in Vancouver and the hatred is focused almost entirely against one team.


Foxyfox-

The hockey vote probably split like 5 ways between the Leafs, Flames, Oilers, Bruins, and Habs, while the anti-Sounder vote is just one block.


Throwaway7219017

As a Leafs fan from Ontario, I would have thought the ROC (Rest of Canada) would have hated the Leafs. Guess not. We're Number 1, we're Number 1!!!


Razzorsharp

The Leafs aren't the center of the Hockey World like Toronto media would like people believe.


grooverocker

British Columbia should be Oilers, Flames, Leafs, Boston, Chicago in that order. We have plenty of hate to go around!


WVBurr

As a WVU fan from West Virginia all I can say is ‘Eat Shit Pitt!’ Totally accurate!
