Detroit Tigers Fans Named Least Likely To Get Stuck In Game Day Traffic
Detroit Tigers fans have been named the least likely to get stuck in game day traffic. Now, is that a good thing or a bad thing?
I suppose that would depend on how frustrated you are by sitting in traffic. If it’s the worst thing in the world for you, then it’s good news! However, it also might be a glimpse into the state of our home team. Learn more about this new study below.
Detroit Tigers Fans Are Least Likely To Get Stuck In Game Day Traffic
It’s not always good to be number one. Sure, on a list of the best fans in baseball, being number one would be awesome. However, being number one on the list of which MLB fans are least and most likely to get stuck in game day traffic isn’t necessarily something to celebrate. Unless you have plans or somewhere you need to be after the game.
FlashPicks set out to find the most hated stadium in Major League Baseball and studied all teams and stadiums against 10 factors including: the price of beer, cost of parking, average attendance, weather, record, and more. One factor they used during their research was traffic density around MLB stadiums on game day. It was that specific category that caught the eye of Detroit Sports Fans.
According to FlashPicks, Detroit Tigers fans are the least likely to be stuck in traffic on game day compared to all other MLB teams. How did this happen? I feel like I’ve sat in some pretty serious traffic leaving a Tigers game. However, that might have been back in, like, 2014 when they were really competing for a World Series. Today? You can’t really say the same. FlashPicks says Comerica Park has the lowest score for speed scoring a 0/5. That means our fans’ average car speeds near the stadium on game day are the highest compared to other cities on game day. Cars are going by at normal speeds and aren’t having to stop or slow down for any game day traffic. That makes sense as Comerica Park also scored the joint-lowest score for congestion at 1.2/10, per FlashPicks. Could it just be our terrific city infrastructure? That’s unlikely.

It’s a Catch-22. You want to have a good baseball team but you also want to have no traffic leaving the game. Few things in life are more frustrating than traffic. However, I think I would take a slight delay if that meant we could have a great team. According to FlashPicks, the two teams in Los Angeles (Angels and Dodgers) have the most traffic on game day.
Have you noticed the lack of traffic around Comerica Park? What do you think? Are you loving the lack of traffic on game day or are you ready for a change?
