6. Chicago Bears - Bill Murray

The Chicago Bears are one of the most recognizable football organizations in all of sports so, it's only right that their biggest celebrity fan is the most popular and recognizable comedians on the face of the earth in Bill Murray. Bill Murray is never afraid to show off his love for the city of Chicago. He was in attendance throughout the Chicago Cubs World Series run during 2016 and has been a long-time fan of the Chicago Bears. The Evanston native is most known for his roles in Caddyshack, Stripes, Ghostbusters and Groundhog Day.

He has won two Primetime Emmy awards and was nominated for Best Actor for his work in Lost in Translation by the Academy Awards. He and his brothers were spotted at a Bears game in 2018 singing their own version of "Bear Down, Chicago Bears" before the contest began. As a youth, Bill Murray was able to witness what is arguably the greatest football team ever assembled in the '85 Chicago Bears win Super Bowl XX. And he might be able to watch the franchise scoop up another Lombardi Trophy in the near future if the team continues to get better as they made a semi-decent run in this year's NFL Playoffs.
