HOW MANY SPORTS FANS ARE PLUGGED INTO VIDEO GAMES?
Published February 24, 1995
The ESPN Chilton Sports Poll surveyed 6,614 U.S. residents over a 4-month+ period (10/4/94-2/13/95). Respondents (age 12+) were asked whether they have video game equipment or personal computers in their homes, and, if so, whether they use them to play sports video games. "Fans" were identified by those who placed themselves on a scale of 0-10, where zero is "not a fan at all." A "fan" is anyone who ranked themself between 1 and 10.
