Title: Sports teams you see live.
Post by: Luke on April 20, 2008, 06:17:34 PM
So who here is a regular attendee of pro sporting events?


It\'s looking like I\'ll be going to alot of Cubs games this year... Went to my second game today already and have plans for at least 2 more in the next month.

Getting to Wrigley is such a pain in the balls.


I\'ll go to maybe one Bulls game a year, a couple Blackhawks games, and I always try to see at least one Bears games but fuck, NFL tickets are hard to get.


I also occasionally drive up to Milwaukee for a Brewers game, and when me and the wife head back to Detroit to see her family we always try to fit in a Tigers game.


What teams do you jerks go see?

im always suprised by how few sports teams san diego has...

anyway, i just go to padre and angel games. Never go to football games since theyre way too damn expensive.

if we had an nhl team i\'d probably go to a few of those.

Went to two Mets @ Phillies games this weekend.  I\'m a Mets fan, so that\'s always fun.

Made it to one Rangers game this year.  

Make NBA games every once in a while, but I\'m kinda turned off to the sport a bit since the Knicks suck balls.

Probably will see an increase in my pro sports attendance now that I\'m out of college and actually have money.  If I lived in New York, I\'d go to a ton of games.

I occasionally go see the Bluejackets since they\'re here in Columbus, only watchable live so I don\'t get into it too much.

Outside of that I\'ll go to Reds and Indians games.  The NBA sucks, though I\'d like to see LeBron sometime, and NFL is too expensive.  Anyways, who needs the pros with the Buckeyes right here.

I went to a giants game and a nets game awhile back when i used to live in jersey....it\'s kinda funny seein\' both the giants field and the nets court in person,..cause it\'s really not as big as it looks when shown on tv,..especially giants stadium,....it was a good experience tho,...but i must admit i prefer to just check out the games in the comfort of my own home...


And that\'s not a knock against cats that like to go see them live...i just hate dealing with traffic and mobs of people after the game...

Yeah I\'ve been to Giants stadium for a concert and something else and it is really small. I was on the field and it was so much smaller than I seen it on TV. It was like being on my high school field.

I go to college games, both UC and OSU.  Can\'t afford to go to pro games unless the family takes me.

Besides, who really wants to see the Bengals?

Haha, no, but I had a perfect view of it.  The Mets fan beat the living hell out of the Phillies fan, it was great.

Surprisingly, I wasn\'t in a fight, despite hanging K\'s off the upper deck for the Mets on Saturday :)

Yeah, I\'ve been there too.  Surprisingly, all football fields are the same size.  You kinda forget that watching on TV.

i had that same thought the one nba game i went to (lakers vs sonics). On tv it looks huge but in person it\'s tiny..i swear it took them two steps to get to half court..i dunno how 10 people fit on it.

only thing i remember from that game is vin baker hitting a shot from across the court..probably looked better on tv

I\'d like to see a championship boxing match live. Though I was in one a few times for sparring.

Whoever thinks boxing is simple is fooling themselves.

I\'m no sports fans, but I did go to a couple Orioles games last year.

It\'s expensive, but I\'d like to watch the Ravens once while I\'m here, too...
