This is evident by the fact that the city boasts a population of over a million people, with the vast majority of them avid fans of their favorite teams. Whether it’s the Cubs, the Bears, the Blackhawks, or any of the other plethora of baseball, football, and basketball teams, residents are insatiable in their passion for their sport. Moreover, the sheer number of games played makes the city a hive of activity, which makes living in the Windy City all the more exciting.

Sports are more than just fun and games. They generate billions of dollars in revenue for local economies, and help kids get active and healthy. Plus, they can be a good way to raise awareness about a variety of social issues. A great example is the Boston Bruins’ visit to local children’s hospitals on Halloween.

There are many ways that sports have helped the Chicago economy. For example, in 2010, sports generated $340 million in the city, generating 456,000 jobs. In addition, the state of Illinois received a whopping $600 million in sports related revenue. These figures only scratch the surface.
