Didn't see this posted, apologies if there WAS a thread about it, since it's from June, but I couldn't find one.
NJ.com (the Star-Ledger) created an interactive fan map based on about 100,000 respondents and I was surprised to see just how popular we were throughout NJ, especially South Jersey, where we're allegedly neck-and-neck with the Flyers in Atlantic and Cape May, even beating Philly in Wildwood and Atlantic City.

I've been saying for a long time, here and elsewhere, that the Devils should be more aggressive in SJ, and consider moving the Albany Devils to AC (without even needing to change the jerseys). These figures back me up with the theory that there is a strong base down there for the Devils if they want it.
I think the Rags fans are under-reported a bit, but I could be wrong.
