Default Which sporting event would you NOT attend if given free tickets to?

Few years won 4 tickets to an NHL game and it went right in the trash can. Each ticket was worth $20.

OTOH was given 2 free tickets to a tennis finals between Serena and some slut. Watched Serena destroy her from the nose bleed section and had a nice free buffet afterwards. 2 tickets were like $70 each courtesy of Acura.

"Wrestling" and women's basketball are the only two I really have no desire to go see in person.

The only sports that come to mind that I wouldn't attend even if I had free championship tickets would be soccer, cricket, and rugby. I'd even go to a men's indoor volleyball match before attending one of those three.

I'd also like to add any underwater sports to my list. Water polo, swim meets, synchronized, etc. I went to one swim meet in college and I cannot imagine a more boring activity.

I've actually been to the Brickyard 400 a handful of times, it wasn't that bad

Going to a place like Bristol would be amazing. Know a lot of people who go in RV's for the week and say how fun it is.

NHL is a great sport to watch. Anyone who would throw NHL tickets away is a fool.

I would not attend boxing, MMA, or racing, if you consider those sports. I'd give the tickets away.

Baseball I would attend.

NHL definitely.

NBA - borderline.

NFL definitely.

One of my friends who plays poker here got me a ticket to go to the NASCAR race when it was in Vegas. It was actually pretty fun. Four of us just boozing all day and watching the cars crash. I have no interest in NASCAR and have never watched a race on TV, but I have to admit it was a fun day.

There are very few sports events I would attend if given free tickets. For me to go, it would have to be something really important, really close by.

With only rare exceptions, I would feel like they should pay me for my time if they want me at their event.

I've actually been to an NHL game at the urging of my brother who is a big fan.

For most fans the game I went to would probably be a wet dream.... Gretzky playing and over 10 goals scored. Me? I fell asleep.

NHL =

you'd rather be 100 rows up watching ape woman Serena just outpower some dinky little chick?

you'd think this question would be entirely subjective.... but I'm afraid here you're dead wrong.

Of the 4 major sports, Hockey is easily the best one to watch live.

I love the NFL but I would rather watch on TV.

Outdoor stadium on a nice sunny day watching a baseball game with a few beers and hotdogs is perfect

NBA ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ until the last 2 minutes sometimes

If there was a regular season NBA game going on in my backyard, I would close the drapes.

Can't think of any sporting event I wouldn't wanna attend. I'm not even that big of a sports fan in general, but being there in person is always a lot more interesting.

I've bought tickets to the F1 race here in Montreal the last 6 or 7 years and I don't even follow the sport. Just the sight and sound of these incredible machines is awe-inducing.

I have only attended 1 NBA game in my life and I was bored out of my mind. The dancers were more interesting to watch than the game.

I would not attend:

NBA games
WNBA games
NASCAR
Curling

I would attend:

NHL
ECHL (just to watch the fights)
MLB
Spring Training
Any college baseball
