I was just in Myrtle Beach for Thanksgiving, and there were a lot of New York plates around. It's not the natives driving that, it's the snowbirds, and the snowbirds are much more likely to follow hockey.
not wrong, though Boris's point still VERY much stands for WV. Northern WV is explicitly Pens country if you follow hockey, and the rest of the state is a mix of Caps, Pens, and even Canes and Jackets fans with the occasional fan of whoever's hot (usually Wings or Devils when I was there). The only Rangers fans I ever saw there were students that wanted to get TF out of New York for college or that couldn't get into one of the better NYC area schools so they went to WVU or Marshall. And those were usually VASTLY out-numbered by Pens, Flyers, and Caps fan students from PA, MD, and VA.

Honestly outside of York and Lancaster counties there isn't a lot of support for the NFL Panthers in SC. Native SCers seem to like 3 teams. Braves, Clemson or USC, and whatever NFL team has a star from those two.

Here on the outskirts of Asheville I see support for three teams. Carolina Panthers, App State, and Clemson. Makes sense because all three are about equidistance from Asheville.
