How does the popularity of soccer compare to NASCAR?

Answer 1

Well I'm a huge NASCAR fan myself, and I will give you the facts (go Tony Stewart!!). Soccer is basically a sport that is all around the world, while NASCAR is a USA sanctioned base in America. So how do we compare? NASCAR has the largest fan base in America (and yes, more than the NFL), while we could both agree upon soccer as being the most popular and well-known sport in the world. Now we switch them both around. NASCAR compared to the world, and soccer's fan base in America. NASCAR is not Formula-One, or IndyCars, and its real hard to explain that NASCAR is a sport the world would know, but not near as much as soccer. Now, soccer in the US. Barely any people take soccer seriously (not to be mean) in the US since there's a huge variety of sports in the US (football, basketball, baseball, hockey), but, lets say Brazil, they don't have a clue to what those four sports were, except soccer, that's all the country knows. Soccer is the largest known sport in the world (other than the US), and NASCAR is the largest sport in the US.
