Obviously, most of the football fans in the home areas of the San Francisco 49ers and Kansas City Chiefs will be rooting for their hometown teams, but what about the rest of the country?
BetOnline.ag created a map depicting which states are rooting for which team. The 49ers dominate the West Coast, owning nine states — if you include Hawaii — in that region when it comes to rooting interest in Super Bowl LIV, and 23 total states, including several East Coast ones.
