Sorry to be a downer, but I have had about 5 lifetimes of live sporting events. With rare exception, I’d rather watch on TV
Exceptions? Pretty short list:
Wimbledon (I have been a few times as a spectator, and broadcast it twice)
US Open Tennis (once was enough)
Daytona 500 (very cool, but once was enough)
The Masters (I will get to watch it on TV this year for the first time in 18 years, yep, I have worked the past 18)
Ryder Cup (every golf fan should go at least once) .....(I have worked everyone since 1999) .....(Better on TV)
Kitzbühel (This one is on my bucket list, but tough to fit into my work schedule)
I am sure there are a few more, but that gives you an idea of my take on attending sporting events.
