    The best way to watch sports is to go to the arena, the second best way is to go to the pub/bar/sports cafe and watch with the neighbours. Like the old days.

      Lets be honest, going to the arena sucks. Especially for a game like football where you will almost certainly be crazy far away from any action. I’ve gone to a few and outside the “it was cool to say you were there” part, I’d rather just watch it on TV. Net even taking the cost into account.

        Can’t really categorically say one way is best or worst. Depends on the individual arena (location relative to you and transportation options, suitability of the arena to the sport, concession prices, concession quality, weather if the arena is open), the teams playing, the personality of the other fans near you, your own personality. It’s all good.
