The claim: "I can see better on television than I can in the stadium."
The answer: Total bullsh!t. You can't see pass patterns develop on television and you can't see line play nearly as well. And you absolutely cannot see what's happening on both sidelines whenever you want to, as you can at the stadium. Watching on television you're at the mercy of a narrow-angle camera feed that shows you only a small percentage of what's going on in the stadium environment.
Totally agree. I've yet to see a sport that wasn't MUCH, MUCH better in person, be it one of the big team sports or something else entirely. With almost any sport, being able to see the whole field of play makes a HUGE difference. I've been spellbound by sports in person that I wouldn't spend five minutes watching on TV, and sports that I love watching on TV? Well, I'll happily sit on the waiting list for nine years in the vague hope that I might someday get season tickets.
