In this study, we aim to delve into the intriguing relationship between the performance of Steinfeld Cup Final teams and the box office success of the top movie of the year. While sports and cinema may seem like unlikely bedfellows, we hypothesized that there may be an unseen connection lurking beneath the surface, much like a surprise cameo in a superhero movie.
As aficionados of both sports and cinema, we couldn't help but ponder the possibility of a correlation between the thrill of a championship game and the excitement of a blockbuster film premiere. Could a nail-biting victory on the ice lead to a surge in ticket sales at the box office? Or perhaps a heartbreaking defeat could drive audiences to seek solace in the escapism of a silver screen spectacular? These are the burning questions that inspired our investigation, and we were determined to uncover the truth, much like an intrepid detective unraveling a plot twist.
With a twinkle in our eye and a spreadsheet in hand, we set out on our quest to examine this unlikely pairing of sports and entertainment. Our journey took us through the annals of sports history and the annals of box office receipts, where we combed through mountains of data like a film director searching for the perfect take.
While the notion of a connection between sports performance and box office success may initially seem far-fetched, our preliminary analysis has revealed a correlation coefficient that is as strong as a professional athlete on game day, and with a p-value so small, it's practically invisible to the naked eye! The allure of uncovering such a statistically significant relationship has fueled our excitement, much like the buzz surrounding a highly-anticipated movie release.

[[LITERATURE REVIEW]]
The connection between the performance of Steinfeld Cup Final teams and the box office success of the top movie of the year has been a subject of intrigue and speculation in both sports and entertainment circles. Early explorations into this surprising relationship began with the seminal work of Smith (2005) and Doe (2010), who set the stage for further investigation into this unlikely pairing. However, as we wade deeper into the literature on this subject, we cannot help but notice the sheer melodrama that envelops the discourse.
In "Sports and Cinema: A Statistical Elegy," Smith (2005) presents a disciplined analysis of the correlation between the outcome of championship games and the subsequent box office trends. Meanwhile, Doe (2010) delves into the economic implications of sports performance on cinematic revenues in "The Bottom Line: Profit Forecasting for Blockbuster Games and Films." These initial forays into the tangled web of sports and entertainment provide a solid foundation for our own investigation, akin to the opening scenes of a classic detective film.
Venturing forth, we encounter a particularly enlightening piece of literature by none other than Jones (2013) in "Slapshots and Showstoppers: Exploring the Intersection of Sports Fandom and Movie-Going Behavior." Jones offers a comprehensive exploration of the psychological underpinnings of sports enthusiasts' propensity to watch blockbuster films following significant sporting events. The insights gleaned from Jones' work appear as enlightening as a dazzling sunbeam amidst the fog of statistical jargon, guiding us toward the heart of this captivating enigma.
As we journey deeper into the academic realm, we encounter works from non-traditional sources that add a delightful twist to the scholarly conversation. Consider "Moneyball: The Art of Winning an Unfair Game" by Michael Lewis, which, while focusing on baseball, offers a playful marriage of sports and statistical analysis that sows the seeds of inspiration for our own investigation. Furthermore, "Blockbusters: Hit-making, Risk-taking, and the Big Business of Entertainment" by Anita Elberse, provides a lens through which we can view the interconnectedness of sporting triumphs and blockbuster victories from a business perspective.
It is at this juncture that our investigation takes a whimsical turn, as we stumble upon works of fiction that tantalizingly hint at the intertwining of sports and cinema. The emotive power of Chad Harbach's "The Art of Fielding" and the exhilarating escapades depicted in "Space Jam: A Novelization" by Francoeur and Booty are testament to the enduring allure of this peculiar correlation, if only in the imaginations of their creators. However, these literary detours do not divert us from our quest; rather, they infuse our inquiry with the spirit of adventure and the unexpected, not unlike an unforeseen plot twist in a Hollywood blockbuster.
In this digital age, social media platforms such as Twitter and Reddit have become lively arenas for discourse on the intersection of sports and entertainment. Recent tweets and posts have illuminated the fervent speculation and quirky theories swirling around this topic, akin to the bustling commotion of a film premiere's red carpet. One particularly intriguing tweet stated, "After a thrilling championship game, it's like the whole city is ready for a blockbuster movie marathon! #TeamSportsAndBlockbusters" (Smith, @sports_nerdtweet, 2019). These digital musings mirror the jovial banter of a light-hearted screenplay, infusing our research with the quirky charisma of contemporary culture.
As we conclude this exuberant survey of the literature, it becomes abundantly clear that the connection between the difference in score of Steinfeld Cup Final teams and tickets sold for the top movie of the year is as complex and multifaceted as the wondrous worlds of sports and cinema themselves. While our pursuit may at times assume the guise of the unconventional, the journey thus far has been as exhilarating as a pulse-pounding thrill ride through the realms of data and entertainment.

Much like a cinematographer capturing the perfect shot, our researchers meticulously curated the datasets, ensuring the accuracy and reliability of the information obtained from the digital domain.
Data Analysis:
Once our data vault was brimming with the treasures of box office triumphs and hockey heroics, we embarked on the statistical voyage to unravel the connection between these seemingly disparate elements. Employing a mixture of regression analysis, correlation calculation, and a dash of multivariate analysis, we set the stage for a performance that would rival any box office blockbuster.
Diving into the statistical sea, we deftly waded through the waves of data points, navigating the complex currents of correlation coefficients and p-values.

[[LITERATURE REVIEW]]
The connection between the performance of Steinfeld Cup Final teams and the box office success of the top movie of the year has been a subject of intrigue and speculation in both sports and entertainment circles. Early explorations into this surprising relationship began with the seminal work of Smith (2005) and Doe (2010), who set the stage for further investigation into this unlikely pairing. However, as we wade deeper into the literature on this subject, we cannot help but notice the sheer melodrama that envelops the discourse.
In "Sports and Cinema: A Statistical Elegy," Smith (2005) presents a disciplined analysis of the correlation between the outcome of championship games and the subsequent box office trends. Meanwhile, Doe (2010) delves into the economic implications of sports performance on cinematic revenues in "The Bottom Line: Profit Forecasting for Blockbuster Games and Films." These initial forays into the tangled web of sports and entertainment provide a solid foundation for our own investigation, akin to the opening scenes of a classic detective film.
Venturing forth, we encounter a particularly enlightening piece of literature by none other than Jones (2013) in "Slapshots and Showstoppers: Exploring the Intersection of Sports Fandom and Movie-Going Behavior." Jones offers a comprehensive exploration of the psychological underpinnings of sports enthusiasts' propensity to watch blockbuster films following significant sporting events. The insights gleaned from Jones' work appear as enlightening as a dazzling sunbeam amidst the fog of statistical jargon, guiding us toward the heart of this captivating enigma.
As we journey deeper into the academic realm, we encounter works from non-traditional sources that add a delightful twist to the scholarly conversation. Consider "Moneyball: The Art of Winning an Unfair Game" by Michael Lewis, which, while focusing on baseball, offers a playful marriage of sports and statistical analysis that sows the seeds of inspiration for our own investigation. Furthermore, "Blockbusters: Hit-making, Risk-taking, and the Big Business of Entertainment" by Anita Elberse, provides a lens through which we can view the interconnectedness of sporting triumphs and blockbuster victories from a business perspective.
It is at this juncture that our investigation takes a whimsical turn, as we stumble upon works of fiction that tantalizingly hint at the intertwining of sports and cinema. The emotive power of Chad Harbach's "The Art of Fielding" and the exhilarating escapades depicted in "Space Jam: A Novelization" by Francoeur and Booty are testament to the enduring allure of this peculiar correlation, if only in the imaginations of their creators. However, these literary detours do not divert us from our quest; rather, they infuse our inquiry with the spirit of adventure and the unexpected, not unlike an unforeseen plot twist in a Hollywood blockbuster.
In this digital age, social media platforms such as Twitter and Reddit have become lively arenas for discourse on the intersection of sports and entertainment. Recent tweets and posts have illuminated the fervent speculation and quirky theories swirling around this topic, akin to the bustling commotion of a film premiere's red carpet. One particularly intriguing tweet stated, "After a thrilling championship game, it's like the whole city is ready for a blockbuster movie marathon! #TeamSportsAndBlockbusters" (Smith, @sports_nerdtweet, 2019). These digital musings mirror the jovial banter of a light-hearted screenplay, infusing our research with the quirky charisma of contemporary culture.
As we conclude this exuberant survey of the literature, it becomes abundantly clear that the connection between the difference in score of Steinfeld Cup Final teams and tickets sold for the top movie of the year is as complex and multifaceted as the wondrous worlds of sports and cinema themselves. While our pursuit may at times assume the guise of the unconventional, the journey thus far has been as exhilarating as a pulse-pounding thrill ride through the realms of data and entertainment.

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 = 0.5471576 (Coefficient of determination)
This means 54.7% of the change in the one variable (i.e., Tickets Sold for the Top Movie of the Year) is predictable based on the change in the other (i.e., Difference in score of Steinfeld Cup Final teams) over the 13 years from 2001 through 2013.
p < 0.01, which is statistically significant(Null hypothesis significance test)
The p-value is 0.0038. 0.0038496522368392464000000000
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 0.74 in 0.38% of random cases. Said differently, if you correlated 260 random variables Which I absolutely did.
with the same 12 degrees of freedom, Degrees of freedom is a measure of how many free components we are testing. In this case it is 12 because we have two variables measured over a period of 13 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.
[ 0.32, 0.92 ] 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. - Y-axis doesn't start at zero: I truncated the Y-axes of the graph above. I also used a line graph, which makes the visual connection stand out more than it deserves.
Nothing against line graphs. They are great at telling a story when you have linear data! But visually it is deceptive because the only data is at the points on the graph, not the lines on the graph. In between each point, the data could have been doing anything. Like going for a random walk by itself!
Mathematically what I showed is true, but it is intentionally misleading. Below is the same chart but with both Y-axes starting at zero.
