The Utah Jazz are a lucky franchise. Why? Because they have the best fans in the entire league. I know they like to pass off "Thank you" videos from the previous season as 'recent we love the 2011-2012 Jazz fans" material. (Really, check out Moni/Andy's work at that link) That's how they treat us. That's fine. Jazz fans still show up to the games. Period.

Even after lockout years. But hey, the media likes to tell us that our Utah Jazz team is costing too much and it's the fans fault. Or something to that effect. Win or lose the Jazz fans show up. If you did a graph showing the Jazz home game attendance rank vs. the metro area population rank of SLC you'll see that the Jazz fans are way ahead of the curve.
We may not have an All-Star or All-NBA player leading the team. But the fans are All-NBA fans every year. Maybe next year we'll get a "thank you" video with new material in it? : )
