[[INTRODUCTION]]
In recent years, the relationship between sports and various aspects of society has become an intriguing area of study. While it is well-established that sports can have a significant impact on cultural, social, and economic dynamics, the potential influence of athletic performance on technological innovation has been relatively understudied. In this study, we venture into the uncharted territory of exploring the connection between the UEFA European Cup and Champions League top scorer's goal count and the number of patents granted in the United States. By delving into these seemingly disparate realms, we aim to unveil any hidden patterns or correlations that may exist between the prowess of European football's top goal scorers and the inventive output in the American patent landscape.
The blend of football and patent statistics may seem as incongruous as a physicist trying to score a goal in a Champions League final, yet the data-driven exploration of this nexus holds the promise of unearthing unexpected and, dare we say, goal-scoring connections. As the famous physicist Niels Bohr once quipped, "Prediction is very difficult, especially about the future." Indeed, we embark on this Sherlockian quest armed with statistical tools and a healthy dose of skepticism, ready to unravel any mysteries or enigmas that may lie within the numbers.
After all, the realm of statistics is not immune to the allure of soccer puns and wordplay. As we kick off this investigation, we are reminded of the words of renowned statistician George Box, who reminded us that "all models are wrong, but some are useful." With this in mind, we seek to construct a model that not only captures the nuances of goal-scoring prowess but also sheds light on the potential link between sporting achievement and inventive creativity.
Given the widespread popularity of the UEFA European Cup and the Champions League, the impact of stellar goal-scoring performances in these competitions may extend beyond the football pitch. It is not inconceivable that the awe-inspiring feats of top goal scorers have a ripple effect that transcends geographic boundaries and permeates into the world of intellectual property and innovation. In the words of Sir Isaac Newton, "If I have seen further, it is by standing on the shoulders of giants." Perhaps, in this context, the giants of European football may inadvertently contribute to the vision and foresight exhibited by inventors and innovators on the other side of the Atlantic.
Through the systematic analysis of goal-scoring data and patent grants, we aim to untangle the intricate web of factors that may underlie this curious relationship. Our foray into this unconventional arena not only pushes the boundaries of interdisciplinary research but also prompts us to ponder the unexpected connections that can arise when seemingly disparate domains intersect. As we embark on this statistical odyssey, our quest for insight is accompanied by a touch of humor and the awareness that, in the world of research, the unexpected often leads to the most illuminating discoveries.

[[LITERATURE REVIEW]]
The connection between prominent sporting events and their potential impact on various socio-economic indicators has been a subject of growing interest in recent scholarly discourse. A nexus that has garnered relatively limited attention, albeit no less intriguing, is the relationship between the UEFA European Cup and Champions League top scorer's goal count and the number of patents granted in the United States. The authors find that this unexpected juxtaposition of European football prowess and inventive output reveals a correlation coefficient of 0.8106053 with a significance level of p < 0.01, hinting at the intersection between athletic achievements and technological advancements.
Smith and Doe (20XX) conducted a seminal study examining the correlation between sports performance and innovative activities in their groundbreaking work, "Sports, Innovation, and the Unpredictable Nature of Achievements." While their focus was predominantly on the influence of Olympic Games on industrial patents, their findings laid the groundwork for investigating the broader impact of sporting events on inventive endeavors. The authors uncovered compelling evidence suggesting that world-class athletic performances could potentially spur inventive activities, setting the stage for subsequent inquiries into the impact of European football tournaments on intellectual property generation.
Turning to a more eclectic array of sources, "The Patent Paradox" by Jones (20XY) offers a fascinating exploration of unexpected catalysts for technological innovation. Although the book primarily delves into paradoxical patterns within patent data, it inadvertently raises intriguing questions about the impact of unconventional stimuli, such as outstanding sports achievements, on inventive outputs. This interdisciplinary work provides a compelling backdrop for our investigation into the association between UEFA European Cup and Champions League top scorers and US patent grants.
A more unconventional but no less enlightening source, "Football Fever: The Global Game and Its Remarkable Effects" by Johnson (20XZ), provides an anecdotal account of the widespread influence of football on global culture. While not a scholarly treatise, the book weaves together a captivating narrative of the permeation of football fervor into diverse aspects of society, inviting readers to ponder the unanticipated implications of athletic achievements on seemingly unrelated domains. This engaging work serves as a reminder of the far-reaching impact of sports phenomena, urging researchers to remain open to unexpected connections that may underpin societal dynamics.
In a lighter-hearted vein, the fictional realm also offers insights that, when interpreted metaphorically, can shed light on real-world phenomena. Consider, for instance, the allegorical resonance of J.K. Rowling's "Quidditch through the Ages" – a fantastical portrayal of a sport that captivates imaginations and blurs the boundaries between the mundane and the extraordinary. While patent grants may not be directly influenced by the wizarding world's airborne athletic pursuits, the underlying message of innovation and unbounded imagination resonates with our exploration of the interplay between football excellence and inventive endeavors.
The silver screen is not devoid of potential inspirations for our inquiry, as evidenced by the popular television series "The Big Bang Theory." Although ostensibly centered on the lives of physicists, the show frequently alludes to the broader impact of sporting events and pop culture phenomena on scientific and technological pursuits. While the link between UEFA European Cup top scorers and US patents may not be explicitly articulated in the sitcom's dialogue, its portrayal of the interplay between diverse realms of human experience encourages a nuanced understanding of the complex dynamics at play in our own investigation.
As we navigate through this literature review, the unexpected confluence of scholarly inquiries, fictional narratives, and popular culture representations highlights the multifaceted nature of the relationship between sports achievement and inventive outputs. While the pursuit of statistical rigor remains paramount, it is essential to acknowledge the potential for unforeseen connections and serendipitous inspirations that may illuminate our understanding of this intriguing interplay.

Our study offers intriguing insights into the potential influence of European football's top goal scorers on innovation and creativity in the American patent landscape, shedding light on the unanticipated interplay between sports and technological advancement.
[[LITERATURE REVIEW]]
The connection between prominent sporting events and their potential impact on various socio-economic indicators has been a subject of growing interest in recent scholarly discourse. A nexus that has garnered relatively limited attention, albeit no less intriguing, is the relationship between the UEFA European Cup and Champions League top scorer's goal count and the number of patents granted in the United States. The authors find that this unexpected juxtaposition of European football prowess and inventive output reveals a correlation coefficient of 0.8106053 with a significance level of p < 0.01, hinting at the intersection between athletic achievements and technological advancements.
Smith and Doe (20XX) conducted a seminal study examining the correlation between sports performance and innovative activities in their groundbreaking work, "Sports, Innovation, and the Unpredictable Nature of Achievements." While their focus was predominantly on the influence of Olympic Games on industrial patents, their findings laid the groundwork for investigating the broader impact of sporting events on inventive endeavors. The authors uncovered compelling evidence suggesting that world-class athletic performances could potentially spur inventive activities, setting the stage for subsequent inquiries into the impact of European football tournaments on intellectual property generation.
Turning to a more eclectic array of sources, "The Patent Paradox" by Jones (20XY) offers a fascinating exploration of unexpected catalysts for technological innovation. Although the book primarily delves into paradoxical patterns within patent data, it inadvertently raises intriguing questions about the impact of unconventional stimuli, such as outstanding sports achievements, on inventive outputs. This interdisciplinary work provides a compelling backdrop for our investigation into the association between UEFA European Cup and Champions League top scorers and US patent grants.
A more unconventional but no less enlightening source, "Football Fever: The Global Game and Its Remarkable Effects" by Johnson (20XZ), provides an anecdotal account of the widespread influence of football on global culture. While not a scholarly treatise, the book weaves together a captivating narrative of the permeation of football fervor into diverse aspects of society, inviting readers to ponder the unanticipated implications of athletic achievements on seemingly unrelated domains. This engaging work serves as a reminder of the far-reaching impact of sports phenomena, urging researchers to remain open to unexpected connections that may underpin societal dynamics.
In a lighter-hearted vein, the fictional realm also offers insights that, when interpreted metaphorically, can shed light on real-world phenomena. Consider, for instance, the allegorical resonance of J.K. Rowling's "Quidditch through the Ages" – a fantastical portrayal of a sport that captivates imaginations and blurs the boundaries between the mundane and the extraordinary. While patent grants may not be directly influenced by the wizarding world's airborne athletic pursuits, the underlying message of innovation and unbounded imagination resonates with our exploration of the interplay between football excellence and inventive endeavors.
The silver screen is not devoid of potential inspirations for our inquiry, as evidenced by the popular television series "The Big Bang Theory." Although ostensibly centered on the lives of physicists, the show frequently alludes to the broader impact of sporting events and pop culture phenomena on scientific and technological pursuits. While the link between UEFA European Cup top scorers and US patents may not be explicitly articulated in the sitcom's dialogue, its portrayal of the interplay between diverse realms of human experience encourages a nuanced understanding of the complex dynamics at play in our own investigation.
As we navigate through this literature review, the unexpected confluence of scholarly inquiries, fictional narratives, and popular culture representations highlights the multifaceted nature of the relationship between sports achievement and inventive outputs. While the pursuit of statistical rigor remains paramount, it is essential to acknowledge the potential for unforeseen connections and serendipitous inspirations that may illuminate our understanding of this intriguing interplay.
[[RESULTS]]
The results of our investigation into the relationship between the UEFA European Cup and Champions League top scorer's goal count and US patents granted have unveiled a remarkable correlation that may raise a few eyebrows. Our analysis of the data spanning from 1975 to 2020 has uncloaked a noteworthy correlation coefficient of 0.8106053, indicating a strong positive linear relationship between these seemingly unrelated variables. This coefficient suggests that there is a strong association between the goal-scoring prowess of top footballers in European competitions and the level of inventive output in the United States.
Further bolstering the strength of this relationship, the coefficient of determination (r-squared) is calculated at 0.6570809. This indicates that approximately 65.71% of the variability in the number of US patents granted can be explained by the variations in the UEFA European Cup and Champions League top scorer's goal count. It is as if the top goal scorers in the UEFA competitions are taking direct free kicks straight into the world of patents, influencing the creative landscape across the Atlantic in ways that were previously unimagined.
The statistical significance of this correlation is also evident, as indicated by the p-value of less than 0.01. This suggests that the likelihood of observing such a strong correlation between the two variables due to random chance alone is less than 1%, adding weight to the argument that there is a genuine relationship between these distinct domains.
In Figure 1, the scatterplot showcases the strong positive correlation between the top scorer's goal count in the UEFA European Cup and Champions League and the number of patents granted in the United States. The plot reinforces the substantial association we have uncovered while inviting further contemplation on how the prowess of European football's top goal scorers seems to transcend the boundaries of sport and permeate into the realm of technological innovation.

[[INTRDUCTION]]
In recent years, the relationship between sports and various aspects of society has become an intriguing area of study. While it is well-established that sports can have a significant impact on cultural, social, and economic dynamics, the potential influence of athletic performance on technological innovation has been relatively understudied. In this study, we venture into the uncharted territory of exploring the connection between the UEFA European Cup and Champions League top scorer's goal count and the number of patents granted in the United States. By delving into these seemingly disparate realms, we aim to unveil any hidden patterns or correlations that may exist between the prowess of European football's top goal scorers and the inventive output in the American patent landscape.
The blend of football and patent statistics may seem as incongruous as a physicist trying to score a goal in a Champions League final, yet the data-driven exploration of this nexus holds the promise of unearthing unexpected and, dare we say, goal-scoring connections. As the famous physicist Niels Bohr once quipped, "Prediction is very difficult, especially about the future." Indeed, we embark on this Sherlockian quest armed with statistical tools and a healthy dose of skepticism, ready to unravel any mysteries or enigmas that may lie within the numbers.
After all, the realm of statistics is not immune to the allure of soccer puns and wordplay. As we kick off this investigation, we are reminded of the words of renowned statistician George Box, who reminded us that "all models are wrong, but some are useful." With this in mind, we seek to construct a model that not only captures the nuances of goal-scoring prowess but also sheds light on the potential link between sporting achievement and inventive creativity.
Given the widespread popularity of the UEFA European Cup and the Champions League, the impact of stellar goal-scoring performances in these competitions may extend beyond the football pitch. It is not inconceivable that the awe-inspiring feats of top goal scorers have a ripple effect that transcends geographic boundaries and permeates into the world of intellectual property and innovation. In the words of Sir Isaac Newton, "If I have seen further, it is by standing on the shoulders of giants." Perhaps, in this context, the giants of European football may inadvertently contribute to the vision and foresight exhibited by inventors and innovators on the other side of the Atlantic.
Through the systematic analysis of goal-scoring data and patent grants, we aim to untangle the intricate web of factors that may underlie this curious relationship. Our foray into this unconventional arena not only pushes the boundaries of interdisciplinary research but also prompts us to ponder the unexpected connections that can arise when seemingly disparate domains intersect. As we embark on this statistical odyssey, our quest for insight is accompanied by a touch of humor and the awareness that, in the world of research, the unexpected often leads to the most illuminating discoveries.

Correlation is a measure of how much the variables move together. If it is 0.99, when one goes up the other goes up. If it is 0.02, the connection is very weak or non-existent. If it is -0.99, then when one goes up the other goes down. If it is 1.00, you probably messed up your correlation function.
r2 = 0.6570809 (Coefficient of determination)
This means 65.7% of the change in the one variable (i.e., Patents granted in the US) is predictable based on the change in the other (i.e., UEFA European Cup and Champions League Top Scorer's Goal Count) over the 46 years from 1975 through 2020.
p < 0.01, which is statistically significant(Null hypothesis significance test)
The p-value is 8.7E-12. 0.0000000000086766652770613580
The p-value is a measure of how probable it is that we would randomly find a result this extreme. More specifically the p-value is a measure of how probable it is that we would randomly find a result this extreme if we had only tested one pair of variables one time.
But I am a p-villain. I absolutely did not test only one pair of variables one time. I correlated hundreds of millions of pairs of variables. I threw boatloads of data into an industrial-sized blender to find this correlation.
Who is going to stop me? p-value reporting doesn't require me to report how many calculations I had to go through in order to find a low p-value!
On average, you will find a correaltion as strong as 0.81 in 8.7E-10% of random cases. Said differently, if you correlated 115,251,651,190 random variables You don't actually need 115 billion variables to find a correlation like this one. I don't have that many variables in my database. You can also correlate variables that are not independent. I do this a lot.
p-value calculations are useful for understanding the probability of a result happening by chance. They are most useful when used to highlight the risk of a fluke outcome. For example, if you calculate a p-value of 0.30, the risk that the result is a fluke is high. It is good to know that! But there are lots of ways to get a p-value of less than 0.01, as evidenced by this project.
In this particular case, the values are so extreme as to be meaningless. That's why no one reports p-values with specificity after they drop below 0.01.
Just to be clear: I'm being completely transparent about the calculations. There is no math trickery. This is just how statistics shakes out when you calculate hundreds of millions of random correlations.
with the same 45 degrees of freedom, Degrees of freedom is a measure of how many free components we are testing. In this case it is 45 because we have two variables measured over a period of 46 years. It's just the number of years minus ( the number of variables minus one ), which in this case simplifies to the number of years minus one.
you would randomly expect to find a correlation as strong as this one.
[ 0.68, 0.89 ] 95% correlation confidence interval (using the Fisher z-transformation)
The confidence interval is an estimate the range of the value of the correlation coefficient, using the correlation itself as an input. The values are meant to be the low and high end of the correlation coefficient with 95% confidence.
This one is a bit more complciated than the other calculations, but I include it because many people have been pushing for confidence intervals instead of p-value calculations (for example: NEJM. However, if you are dredging data, you can reliably find yourself in the 5%. That's my goal!
All values for the years included above: If I were being very sneaky, I could trim years from the beginning or end of the datasets to increase the correlation on some pairs of variables. I don't do that because there are already plenty of correlations in my database without monkeying with the years.
Still, sometimes one of the variables has more years of data available than the other. This page only shows the overlapping years. To see all the years, click on "See what else correlates with..." link above.

Why this works
- Data dredging: I have 25,153 variables in my database. I compare all these variables against each other to find ones that randomly match up. That's 632,673,409 correlation calculations! This is called “data dredging.” Instead of starting with a hypothesis and testing it, I instead abused the data to see what correlations shake out. It’s a dangerous way to go about analysis, because any sufficiently large dataset will yield strong correlations completely at random.
- Lack of causal connection: There is probably
Because these pages are automatically generated, it's possible that the two variables you are viewing are in fact causually related. I take steps to prevent the obvious ones from showing on the site (I don't let data about the weather in one city correlate with the weather in a neighboring city, for example), but sometimes they still pop up. If they are related, cool! You found a loophole.
no direct connection between these variables, despite what the AI says above. This is exacerbated by the fact that I used "Years" as the base variable. Lots of things happen in a year that are not related to each other! Most studies would use something like "one person" in stead of "one year" to be the "thing" studied. - Observations not independent: For many variables, sequential years are not independent of each other. If a population of people is continuously doing something every day, there is no reason to think they would suddenly change how they are doing that thing on January 1. A simple
Personally I don't find any p-value calculation to be 'simple,' but you know what I mean.
p-value calculation does not take this into account, so mathematically it appears less probable than it really is. - Confounding variable: 2020 is particularly different from the other years on this graph. Confounding variables (like global pandemics) will cause two variables to look connected when in fact a "sneaky third" variable is influencing both of them behind the scenes.

Reuseable content
You may re-use the images on this page for any purpose, even commercial purposes, without asking for permission. The only requirement is that you attribute Tyler Vigen. Attribution can take many different forms. If you leave the "tylervigen.com" link in the image, that satisfies it just fine. If you remove it and move it to a footnote, that's fine too. You can also just write "Charts courtesy of Tyler Vigen" at the bottom of an article.You do not need to attribute "the spurious correlations website," and you don't even need to link here if you don't want to. I don't gain anything from pageviews. There are no ads on this site, there is nothing for sale, and I am not for hire.
For the record, I am just one person. Tyler Vigen, he/him/his. I do have degrees, but they should not go after my name unless you want to annoy my wife. If that is your goal, then go ahead and cite me as "Tyler Vigen, A.A. A.A.S. B.A. J.D." Otherwise it is just "Tyler Vigen."
When spoken, my last name is pronounced "vegan," like I don't eat meat.

- High resolution line chart
The image linked here is a Scalable Vector Graphic (SVG). It is the highest resolution that is possible to achieve. It scales up beyond the size of the observable universe without pixelating. You do not need to email me asking if I have a higher resolution image. I do not. The physical limitations of our universe prevent me from providing you with an image that is any higher resolution than this one.
If you insert it into a PowerPoint presentation (a tool well-known for managing things that are the scale of the universe), you can right-click > "Ungroup" or "Create Shape" and then edit the lines and text directly. You can also change the colors this way.
Alternatively you can use a tool like Inkscape. - High resolution line chart, optimized for mobile
