Phillies fans No. 1, beat Sox, Yankees

We’re No. 1. And this time, in a good way.

A week after GQ Magazine pegged Philly fans as the worst in the country, a new report has the city as the most loyal.

New York-based Brand Keys, Inc. compiled its 19th annual Sports Loyalty Index by surveying 250 baseball fans in each team’s market. The Phillies rated No. 1, surpassing the New York Yankees and Boston Red Sox.

“With the Phillies, every game seems to count to the whole team,” Brand Keys President Robert Passikoff told Bloomberg. “They seem to take it more personally.”
