10 Teams in Sports That Have the Most Fun

Have you ever noticed that there are some sports teams that just seem to enjoy the game a little bit more than their opponents?

Whether it's because they genuinely enjoy being around one another and have a camaraderie that makes them act like little kids or because they are just winning more than the other guysโ€”or perhaps a combination of bothโ€”these are the teams that are just as fun to watch because of their enjoyment as they are for the way they play.

Cincinnati Bengals

1 of 10

The Bengals turned things around by reaching the playoffs in three of the past four seasons, even winning the difficult AFC North in 2009.

Thanks to their two stints on the NFL's version of reality TV, HBO's Hard Knocks, the team has given fans an inside look at who they are.

Sure, the team may have lost mega personalityย Chad Ochocinco since the last time they were featured, but by letting the cameras behind the scenes again they show they don't mind having aย little fun.

Stjarnan F.C.

Icelandic club soccer team Stjarnan F.C. might not be as popular as Manchester United, Real Madrid or Bayern Munich, but they might have more fun than all of them combined.

Though the squad's record isn't exactly up to par, they know how toย celebrate, as they put on display pretty much any time they put one in the back of the net.

With some of the more creative and choreographed celebrations ever,ย Stjarnan and the players remind us that it doesn't matter who wins or loses, just as long as you have fun.

New Britain Rock Cats

3 of 10

There were a couple other teams vying for a spot here, but I found this one to be most entertaining because it was allย set up.

As we've seen over the years, there have been someย unexpected answersย to marriage proposals that happen on the Jumbotrons.

So I like how this team didn't only recognize that, but actually did it themselves.

Pulling a prank like this on fansโ€”and the entire Internetโ€”is enough to make all baseball fans sing "Fake Me Out to The Ballgame" at every Rock Cats game from now on.

Boston Bruins

4 of 10

The Boston Bruins may have blown a late-game lead in this year'sย Game 6ย of the Stanley Cup Final to the Chicago Blackhawks, but the team proved in 2011 when they lifted Lord Stanley's Cup that they really knew how to have some fun.

Racking up an insaneย $156,000ย bill at a nearby Boston bar, the B's partied hard into the night with a rare bottle of Ace of Spadesโ€”yes, the champagne thatย Jay Zย often raps aboutโ€”putting them in some exclusive company.

Any time pictures surface of pro athletes rocking nothing but bare skin at a bar, it's usually an all-out fiesta.

Green Bay Packers

5 of 10

Though it's cooled down a bit during the offseason, the last football season gave us a lot of Packers exposure, didn't it?

There's quarterback Aaron Rodgers' State Farm andย Pizza Hutย commercials,ย Clay Matthews III showing up in aย few moreย and, though he left for division rival Minnesota, former wideout Greg Jennings as the face ofย Old Spice.

Oh, and don't forget about theย photobombingย that Rodgers does before every game.

This all comes on the heels of their Super Bowl in 2011, so here's a quick note to all teamsโ€”if you want to have more fun, start winning the big games.

Los Angeles Clippers

6 of 10

With a nickname like Lob City thanks to all the monster dunks they have, the Los Angeles Clippers have to be known as fun, right?

Known as one of the most inept franchises in sports for so longโ€”and playing in the shadows of the big brother Lakersโ€”the Clips have finally identified themselves as the better of the two teams after back-to-back playoffย appearances, which included a Pacific Division title in 2013.

The winning is obviously great, but the brand of basketball the Clippers are playing has become one of the most exciting over the past couple seasons.

Seattle Seahawks

7 of 10

With a head coach like Pete Carrollโ€”who's one of theย biggest prankstersย in all of sportsโ€”the Seahawks have enjoyed a laid-back atmosphere that has seen them excel on the field.

Some may actually argue that the leash by Carrollโ€”the ultimate players' coachโ€”is a little too loose for his players, as they've had a run ofย suspensions over the past couple seasons.

Nevertheless, Seattle hasn't faltered on the field, narrowly missing the NFC title game last year. They head into this season as one of theย favoritesย to win the Super Bowl.

Oh yeah, and their fans are nuts, too.

Playing in front of the 12th Man only adds to the fun this team has.

Chicago Blackhawks

8 of 10

Led by one of the biggest partiers in sports,ย Patrick Kane, the Blackhawks show that they do and say what they want to have funย together. (Note: NSFW.)

The 2013 Stanley Cup champs' core players are all pretty close in age, with Kane (24),ย Jonathan Toews (25) andย Brandon Saadย (20) all playing an integral part in capturing this year's Cup.

With such young talent and the experience it has from two titles in the past four seasons, there's no reason to think they can't have the Cup singing "Sweet Home, Chicago."

Spanish Men's National Soccer Team

9 of 10

I was originally going to put F.C. Barcelona here, but as much fun as the club team from La Liga has, the national team from the same country has even more.

With most of the players growing up playing with or against each other through differentย soccer academies, these guys are like brothers, knowing nearly everything about one another.

As familiar as they are personally, they've shown that they have more fun on the pitch together, as they've won the last threeย majorย soccer tournaments (Euro 2008, World Cup 2010, Euro 2012).

Miami Heat

10 of 10

When a team goes to three straight NBA Finals (winning the past two), it generally means that they're doing something right.

With a locker room that combines myriad of personalities, led by the biggest kid on the block, LeBron James, it makes for a pretty fun timeโ€”and quite theย street cred.

Fromย photobombingย each other to setting one another up withย sick passes to doing an absolutely stunning rendition of the "Harlem Shake," the South Beach boys absolutely love being around each other.
