The Jets and the Giants both represent New York, however some people say that Long Islanders hold a special place in their heart for the Jets. When you look at a recent Facebook analysis that appeared in the Huffington Post, you see a clear love for the Jets in most of New York City - Manhattan, Queens, Bronx and Brooklyn.

There are two explanations for this:

1) Shea stadium in Queens housed the Jets from 1964-1983 which could be why you see more Jets fans around there.

2) The Jets trained on Long Island at Hofstra for a long time.
