Yes, Delaware. The state you drive through in 14 minutes somehow turns into the nation&#8217;s loudest pizza order on Super Bowl Sunday. <\/p>\n<section data-embed=\"watch-next\" data-lazy-id=\"P0-18\" data-node-id=\"6\" class=\"embed\"\/>\n<p data-journey-content=\"true\" data-node-id=\"7\" class=\"css-6wxqfj emevuu60\">The explanation is actually pretty funny: Google Trends has a weird grouping quirk where Philadelphia activity gets lumped under Delaware, and Philly has shown up as the biggest pizza-demand city for the last eight Super Bowls. So technically, Delaware is taking the crown\u2026 with Philly doing all the heavy lifting.<\/p>\n<section data-embed=\"body-image\" data-lazy-id=\"P0-19\" data-node-id=\"8\" class=\"embed\">\n<div size=\"medium\" data-embed=\"body-image\" class=\"align-center size-medium embed css-y6m8k e1fodxfw4\">\n<div class=\"css-uwraif e1fodxfw3\">\n<div class=\"css-p7qblm e1mlxuuw0\"><img draggable=\"true\" alt=\"map showing the ranking of us states by pizza orders on super bowl sunday\" title=\"map showing the ranking of us states by pizza orders on super bowl sunday\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1166\" height=\"906\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"1\" style=\"color:transparent;width:100%;height:auto;\" sizes=\"auto, 100vw\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hips.hearstapps.com\/hmg-prod\/images\/super-bowl-pizza-delivery-demand-6975871c342de.png?resize=640:* 640w, https:\/\/hips.hearstapps.com\/hmg-prod\/images\/super-bowl-pizza-delivery-demand-6975871c342de.png?resize=768:* 980w, https:\/\/hips.hearstapps.com\/hmg-prod\/images\/super-bowl-pizza-delivery-demand-6975871c342de.png?resize=980:* 1120w, https:\/\/hips.hearstapps.com\/hmg-prod\/images\/super-bowl-pizza-delivery-demand-6975871c342de.png?resize=980:* 1400w, https:\/\/hips.hearstapps.com\/hmg-prod\/images\/super-bowl-pizza-delivery-demand-6975871c342de.png?resize=980:* 1800w, https:\/\/hips.hearstapps.com\/hmg-prod\/images\/super-bowl-pizza-delivery-demand-6975871c342de.png?resize=980:* 2000w\" src=\"https:\/\/hips.hearstapps.com\/hmg-prod\/images\/super-bowl-pizza-delivery-demand-6975871c342de.png?resize=980:*\" class=\"css-0 e1g79fud0\"\/><img decoding=\"async\" data-dynamic-svg=\"true\" src=\"https:\/\/www.delish.com\/_assets\/design-tokens\/fre\/static\/icons\/social\/pinterest.e8cf655.svg?primary=%2523ffffff\" loading=\"lazy\" data-testid=\"dynamic-svg-base\" height=\"auto\" width=\"auto\" alt=\"pinterest\" class=\"css-4lml0h e1mlxuuw1\"\/><\/div>\n<p><figcaption data-theme-key=\"photo-credit-figcaption\" class=\"css-1am3yn9 e1g9hcy40\"><span data-theme-key=\"photo-credit-creditor\" class=\"css-10bgxwr e1geg53v2\">Action Network \/ Google Trends<\/span><\/figcaption><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<p data-journey-content=\"true\" data-node-id=\"9\" class=\"css-6wxqfj emevuu60\">Here\u2019s the full Top 10 states for Super Bowl pizza demand, ranked:<\/p>\n<ul data-node-id=\"10\" class=\"css-kw9lqy emevuu60\">\n<li data-node-id=\"10.0\">Delaware<\/li>\n<li data-node-id=\"10.1\">Michigan<\/li>\n<li data-node-id=\"10.2\">Pennsylvania<\/li>\n<li data-node-id=\"10.3\">Florida<\/li>\n<li data-node-id=\"10.4\">Ohio<\/li>\n<li data-node-id=\"10.5\">Arizona<\/li>\n<li data-node-id=\"10.6\">Nevada<\/li>\n<li data-node-id=\"10.7\">Maryland<\/li>\n<li data-node-id=\"10.8\">Illinois<\/li>\n<li data-node-id=\"10.9\">South Carolina<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p data-journey-content=\"true\" data-node-id=\"12\" class=\"css-6wxqfj emevuu60\">Michigan&#8217;s second-place spot is a tribute to Detroit-style pizza alone, and Illinois&#8217; placement makes sense with all the deep-dish loyalists out there. <\/p>\n<p data-journey-content=\"true\" data-node-id=\"13\" class=\"css-6wxqfj emevuu60\">The data also found that states tend to see about a 5.8% bump in pizza demand when their home team is playing.
