Good quiz, but Oxnard is not in the IE.

The idea that the IE isn't represented by Los Angeles teams is a little silly, but that is the way it's accounted.

I loved this quiz. One concern, though...Providence has a team 17 miles away from its city center -- the Patriots, who represent New England. Should they count? They're closer to Providence than they are to Boston.

How about San Juan, Puerto Rico (2,509,007)?

@TheBigE1980 - Except Foxborough is in Norfolk County, which is part of the Boston Metro Area, not the Providence metro. I think if you abandon the formal definitions, you will rapidly become lost.

You mean Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario, not Oxnard. Oxnard is in the Ventura MSA.
