It's crazy how much that state doesn't care about pro sports with as many teams as they have, granted this is based solely on the people I have talked to there.
Rays, Marlins, Jags, Dolphins, Bucs, Panthers, Lightning, Heat, Magic are all second fiddle to the Gators and Noles. Dolphins may be the only team that is even close and even that is probably a stretch.
