Is Attending Major Sporting Events Worth It Anymore?
Value of Attending Sports Events
Rob and Chris discussed the value of attending various sports events, particularly high school and junior college games. Rob expressed his preference for attending hockey games over NFL games, citing the more exciting atmosphere and lower ticket prices. Chris agreed, recommending watching high school and college softball games for the opportunity to see talented athletes and experience the energy of the games. Both emphasized the value of attending these events for the entertainment and inspiration they provide.
Frustration With Professional Sports Decline
Rob and Chris discussed their dissatisfaction with professional sports, particularly baseball, basketball, and Nascar. They expressed frustration with the current state of these sports, citing issues such as prima donna players, injuries, and a focus on money over the sport itself. They also discussed the decline in the quality of sports and the shift in focus towards local, amateur sports. Rob shared his personal experience of switching his focus from professional sports to local sports, such as paddleboarding and skiing. Chris agreed with Rob's perspective and suggested that the decline in professional sports is due to a lack of appreciation for the fans. They concluded the discussion by expressing their hope that people would start to appreciate local sports more.
Supporting High School Student-Athletes
Rob expresses his desire to see more support and attendance for high school sports beyond just football and basketball, such as softball, women's basketball, soccer, and wrestling. He highlights the passion and dedication of these student-athletes and suggests that having packed stadiums would be an incredible experience for them. Chris agrees and notes the affordability of attending such events. Rob emphasizes the importance of supporting these athletes at lower levels who play purely for their love of the sport. He also mentions interviewing a top-ranked high school wrestler who could potentially become an Olympian, encouraging people to watch and support her. The discussion touches on using the money spent on attending these events to support the schools' non-profit programs.
