If you’ve ever sat through a Wisconsin spring sporting event… you already know.
In this episode of Jen, Gabe & Chewy, the crew dives into a painfully relatable topic:
👉 Is high school baseball the worst sport to watch in Wisconsin?
❄️ The Problem: It’s NOT the game… it’s the weather
44 degrees with a “feels like 28” wind chill
Parents bundled in snow pants, blankets, and layers
Sitting on cold metal bleachers for an entire game
At one point, it literally felt like:
👉 “Are we climbing Mount Everest right now?”
🧊 Why Baseball Makes It Worse
Long stretches of standing still in the cold
No movement compared to sports like soccer or basketball
Early-season games when temperatures are still brutal
And unlike other sports:
👉 There’s no easy escape from the elements
🆚 The Debate: What’s the Worst Wisconsin Sport to Watch?
The show compares:
Baseball vs Track
Baseball vs Hockey
Indoor vs Outdoor environments
And asks the real question:
👉 Would you rather deal with extreme cold… or extreme heat?
👨👩👧 The Parenting Side
This conversation hits home for Wisconsin families:
Balancing support vs comfort
Sitting through games for your kids
Knowing it’s miserable… but going anyway
And one honest takeaway:
👉 Sometimes it’s not about the game — it’s about the moment
