Nice! Courtside or actually being in the stadium is, hands-down, so much better than watching games on TV.

Misa, your pre-December Christmas avatar, disturbs me. It's pumpkin spice season!
Speaking of... PARKER make this place more festive. I require pumpkin spice flavors of all the things. Oh and get some gourds to put around. Be conservative though, don't want people thinking I care about some holiday. I just really like Autumn is all.

I really wouldn't think I would have to clarify that this is my opinion. Yes, I do agree with you, but this was spurred by Zero's previous comment since he's attending a NBA game.
Enjoying playing solitary sports as opposed to watching a game on TV?

Depends on the sport. The NFL in particular is optimized for TV at this point, and is a much better experience at home. Basketball depends on the seats.
Hockey is trash on TV - if you can't be there, don't bother.

Optimized for sponsors. I can agree with that.
The last quarter of a basketball game is the most engaging and intense.
EDIT: College football is much more fun in-stadium.

My brother for example never misses a football game, but absolutely hates the idea of going to the stadium(but this is mostly cause the majority of italian stadiums are outdated crap and you can't see anything), and only accepts to watch it on tv with someone else if asked; but actually prefers to be alone, locked up, screaming at the tv with no one around.

The experience of being on the side lines of a NFL or College game does not seem to be captured on TV though. The constant violence from bodies crashing into each other on the line, really isn't transmitted or felt on television. It's a totally different experience. This is mainly to do with stadium cameras drawing viewer attention towards the play etc.

Texas A&M and University of Arkansas fans are terrifying! That's all I have to add.
The worst seats at Ranger's stadium are the upper tier above homeplate. You can't look down without feeling like your stomach dropped and you're going to spew since it's so steep. I hope they rectify that with the new stadium, not that we purchase seats up there now.
Edit: Reunion Arena used to have the same seating arrangement but for seats closer to the court. Scary!

Yeah, that's why I made it a point to specify the NFL, vs all American football.

Yea baseball stadium seating in the upper decks feels like you're going to fall to your death at any moment.
Also back to watching the NFL in stadium. Has to one of the most annoying experiences in modern sports due to the volume of TV time outs.

TV yellers are annoying.

I can't help but think of this incident right now. The stuff of nightmares!

It's the best especially when it feels like the players actually listened to you through the TV. :D

don't like going to stadiums, makes the game more boring, like in baseball, cant even see the ball. football is duller, and soccer isn't as fun, but the more tolerable if you get a nice crowd yell with.
would rather watch most of them on TV.
....not that I actually do. still boring.
