The Boys of Winter

Title

The Boys of Winter

Description

The Boston Bruins and Boston Celtics compete for the NHL and NBA championships every season, but they also compete for Boston’s attention in the winter. Because popularity of the team is often tied to that team’s success, I found that the Bruins were currently the more popular winter sports team, despite missing the playoffs this year, while the Celtics made the playoffs. I used interviews of fans, talked to restaurant workers at venues near the TD Garden, compared price, attendance, and retail sales data, and found online evidence to back up the claim that the Bruins are truly the most popular team in Boston during the winter.
