Liverpool is definitely more known for The Beatles than its football team.

I'm also going to have to disagree on the Europe point.

South America, Mexico and Africa in particular are obsessed with football, and Russia, China and some parts of SEA are also huge football fans. Many of these will be well aware of the top British and Spanish football teams. On the other hand, basketball is also very popular in Asia so I don't know exactly how that would break.

You got any data on that? AFAIK lots of younger people have no idea what the Beatles were.
