sports on TV

PTH2009

prob a stupid question but here goes

Can you watch your favourite sports team live on television at home ?? or do you have to be at the match or in a crowded area like a pub

When someones fav team was playing in a final and the match was too close for comfort they had to go outside, go for a walk etc when the match was on because they could not take it. It feels worse when you lose a match at home than it is attending it or being in a pub.

I remember i had to leave the room for the last 5 mins of the 2006 Heineken Cup final between Munster and Biarittz because my heart could not take it

Well then... I guess you were right with the first part.

Pub for Athmosphere.

HOme if you couldnt be bothered.

Be there in person at the stadium if you can.

How could you leave the room, those last 5 mins were brilliant. The pure relief at the end was great

Watching Cork losing in an All Ireland final makes me absolutely furious.
And I don't even follow GAA.

As a Limerick FC fan, I'd say they've been live on television about 3 times in the last 20 years, so neither option is available to me. Even if they were on tv, I'd be at the game anyway.

Watch at home. The atmosphere is gone from the pubs.

Pubs are full of idiots.
In my own house or my brother's for the rugby

stimpson

I generally watch the hot oil wrestling and foxy boxing at home.

When I was younger I'd watch sport in pubs, now I couldn't be arsed.
Far more enjoyable to watch it at home with a few cans and friends over, or else over at their place

Nothing beats being in the stadium, but the pub does as a poor substitute if that's not possible.

Can't stand watching matches in the pubs. Full of dopes and can rarely hear the commentary / analysis.

I'm a bit of a nerd for football and love to hear everything. Cans on the couch beats the pub every time

diomed

At home. I would never watch an important match in a pub.

Really glad I experienced the raucous atmosphere on the terraces of the old Lansdowne Road, as the sterile game-day experience at the 'Aviva' is like the house of 1000 corpses by comparison.

Much rather catch a game at home nowadays.
