I would have to agree, live events are a much more visceral experience, the sights, the smells, the people...
My dad got free tickets to the NASCAR Fontana race and I took my friend who is a huge NASCAR fan... even he said he was good for 10 years to see another live race.
I much preferred going to VARA or NHRA live but would spend as much time in the pits as I would sitting in the stands.
I love parking my butt on the couch with a cold one and watching NFL on a Sunday afternoon... dropping a couple hundred bucks to see a game live? Not going to happen!
