The Washington Redskins are one of the most storied and iconic franchises in sports, but they do have more followers of the team, than people on earth?
According to Dan Steinberg of the Washington Post, the Redskins are claiming via a recent report, that there were “7,845,460,401 unique visitors of print/online coverage of the 2014 Redskins Training Camp from July 24-Aug. 12.”
Those are unique visitors as well — like almost 8 billion single visits to the site.
Steinberg countered with a number from the U.S. Census Bureau that estimates Earth’s population to be around 7.26 billion people.
So the Skins either meant million, or believe that we are all crazy. Any press is good press, so this embarrassment will likely have a few unique and new visitors trying to figure out what all the fuss is about.
