Are they the absolute most fairweather fanbase in all of sports?
Inb4 excuses about Detroit's economy. The Pistons don't play in Detroit.

No, that would be the San Diego Chargers. Also, for probably about 90% of basketball fans in the state Pistons basketball is second to either Wolverines or Spartans basketball.

San Diego Chargers fans are outnumbered by transplants in their own city. That's a separate issue.

So you're reaffirming that the Pistons don't have a good fanbase. Cool.

You do realize that when the economy in a city takes a shit it generally effects the entire metro area as well right?

>going by percentage
also it's hard to keep caring after being #1 and caring strongly for 5 straight seasons and then watching Dumars blow up the team and trade chauncey for Ivershit so we could head straight to the basement

There literally is no one left in the Detroit area.
You could put everyone in the arena and it'd be half empty

PITTSBURGH PISTONS WHEN?
Its because its early in the season, the lions are imploding, red wings suck and theres no baseball. Newer generations of detroit sports fans hop from bandwagon to bandwagon.

I wouldn't go as far as to say the Wings suck.
>>63537747
The Wings kinda suck m8

In the City? No, we're going though gentrification now so blacks are moving out and whites in the suburbs are moving closer. Population is around 700,000 right now.
No one goes to Pistons games because they're far out as fuck in comparison to the Lions, Wings, and Tigers, who play downtown. And who wants to make that drive to see a team that's probably going to lose?
Lions tickets are cheap and beer is cheap, so even if you have to watch them lose, you'll be around fellow drunk fans without blowing a hole to your account.
