Although the game didn't end the way we wanted in 2006 (technically 2007), I still remember my brother coming home from AZ and raving about how the Phoenix area was all Buckeye fans. He even mentioned that stores sold Ohio State gear on every street. Now, I've never been to a game out there so I can't speak about my own experiences, but I have seen others on here refer to that area as Columbus West. 

So, that brings me to my question(s). Why has the Phoenix area been so good to the Buckeyes? Are there a lot of alumni there? Is it because the Buckeyes have played there often and always travel well so the locals love the boost to their economy? Who has been and can share their experience?
