[[LITERATURE REVIEW]]
The bewitching conundrum of yogurt's influence on ticket sales for Washington Nationals games has sparked curiosity and raised eyebrows in the world of sports and dietary research. As we delve into the existing literature, we begin with Smith's seminal work, "Yogurt: A Dairy Delight," in which the authors find compelling evidence of yogurt's impact on calcium absorption and gut health. This lays the foundation for our exploration of yogurt's potential reach into the realm of sports spectatorship, a journey ripe with unexpected twists and turns, much like a spoon swirling through a cup of creamy, probiotic-laden goodness.
Doe and Jones, in their scholarly endeavors within "The Economics of Sporting Events," make a bold attempt to unravel the complex web of factors influencing ticket sales for professional sports. However, little did they know that the yogurt-tinged thread that swirls through the fabric of consumer behaviors would elude their rigorous analysis, waiting to be unraveled by our curious minds.
As we venture further into the annals of literature, we encounter "The Yogurt Manifesto" by renowned food critic, Chef Gourmand, wherein the delectable world of yogurt is celebrated with culinary gusto. While the book does not explicitly touch upon the impact of yogurt consumption on sports attendance, it serves as a savory appetizer for our foray into uncharted statistical territories, seasoning our curiosity with a pinch of gastronomic delight.
Moving away from the non-fiction realm, we stumble upon "The Curious Case of Yogurt and the Kooky Krusader" by fiction author, A. P. Plesauce. Though ostensibly a fantastical tale of a caped crusader solving crimes with the help of his trusty yogurt sidekick, the underlying themes of unexpected collaborations and unlikely heroes strike a chord with our investigation. Could yogurt indeed be the unassuming hero in the grand narrative of Washington Nationals ticket sales, swooping in to save the day with its dairy-licious prowess?
Amidst the pages of children's literature, we find the animated musings of "The Yogurt Adventures of Yoggy Yum-Yum," a whimsical cartoon series that follows the mischievous exploits of a yogurt cup brought to life. While the show may seem like mere entertainment for the young at heart, its underlying message of boundless possibilities and unlikely friendships resonates with our exploration of yogurt's clandestine role in the realm of sports spectatorship.
In conclusion, our literature review unveils a spectrum of works that, while not directly addressing the peculiar connection between yogurt consumption and Washington Nationals ticket sales, provide a tantalizing backdrop for our own investigation. As we embark on this peculiarly delightful journey, we not only decipher the enigmatic interplay between dairy delights and ballpark fervor but also invite further scrutiny into the whimsical and often uproariously improbable intersections of food and sports.

[[METHODOLOGY]]
To uncover the enigmatic relationship between yogurt consumption and ticket sales for the Washington Nationals, our research team embarked on an odyssey through the realms of statistical analysis and data mining. In a study that can only be described as a fusion of foodie fascination and baseball bewilderment, we sought to elucidate the tangy tendrils of yogurt on the ticket-buying behavior of baseball aficionados.
Data Collection:
Gathering information from a variety of sources, we relied heavily on the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) for comprehensive data on yogurt consumption trends across the nation. Additionally, our data on Washington Nationals ticket sales was extracted from the delightful baseball treasure trove of Baseball-Reference.com. Armed with these datasets spanning the years 1990 to 2019, we were poised to unravel the curious correlation between these seemingly incongruous variables.
Quantitative Yogurtification:
Our first order of business was to quantify the consumption of yogurt across the United States. Utilizing an array of yogurt-related metrics, including per capita consumption, flavor preferences, and even the density of yogurt shops per zip code, we meticulously crafted a comprehensive profile of the yogurt-eating landscape throughout the years. This involved not only crunching numbers but also immersing ourselves in the creamy nuances of yogurt culture, from Greek to Icelandic skyr.
Baseball Metrics:
Parallel to our yogurt-centric endeavors, we delved deep into the statistical realm of baseball to comprehend the ebb and flow of ticket sales for Washington Nationals games. Our analysis included variables such as game attendance, ticket prices, team performance, and promotional events, all of which painted a vibrant portrait of the ticket-buying behavioral patterns of Nationals Park patrons.
The Convoluted Yogurt-Yield Model:
In an effort to distill the essence of yogurt's influence on ticket sales, we concocted a convoluted model that accounted for myriad factors. This included an intricate maze of regression analyses, propensity score matching while munching on granola, and the geographical dispersal of frozen yogurt establishments. At the heart of our model lay the yogurt-yield coefficient, a whimsical yet formidable measurement of the predictive power of yogurt consumption on ticket sales.
Statistical Sourdoughing:
With arrays of data at our disposal, we kneaded our statistical dough with fervor, unveiling the systemic relationships between yogurt metrics and ticket sales indicators. Our methodology involved a smorgasbord of statistical tests, including Pearson's correlation, multiple regression analysis, and even a sprinkle of Bayesian inference for good measure.
Validation and Robustness Checks:
In the spirit of scholarly rigor, we subjected our findings to a battery of validation tests and robustness checks. This involved sensitivity analyses, permutation tests with a yogurt twist, and even the solemn contemplation of the yogurt-to-curd ratio as a proxy for uncertainty.
Ethical Considerations:
Amidst the whirlwind of yogurt and baseball statistics, we remained mindful of ethical considerations. Our research team ensured the ethical treatment of data, maintaining the sanctity of statistical privacy and upholding the integrity of our dairy and sport-related findings.
In unveiling the perplexing connection between yogurt consumption and Washington Nationals ticket sales, our methodology combined levity with rigor, crafting a concoction of statistical zest and culinary jest to unravel the whimsical web woven by yogurt and baseball fandom.

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 = 0.5936753 (Coefficient of determination)
This means 59.4% of the change in the one variable (i.e., Ticket sales for Washington Nationals games) is predictable based on the change in the other (i.e., Yogurt consumption) over the 30 years from 1990 through 2019.
p < 0.01, which is statistically significant(Null hypothesis significance test)
The p-value is 6.3E-7. 0.0000006346055041839862000000
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 0.77 in 6.3E-5% of random cases. Said differently, if you correlated 1,575,782 random variables You don't actually need 1 million 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 29 degrees of freedom, Degrees of freedom is a measure of how many free components we are testing. In this case it is 29 because we have two variables measured over a period of 30 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.
[ 0.57, 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.
