Most people prefer to watch football match with other people either in viewing center or with friends. Yes to watch football match alone is boring.

You enjoy the match more where there are friends who you can discuss, argue and analyze the game together. Some people leave their comfort zone where they are suppose to relax and watch matches and then go to game houses even far away to watch football match with friends and like minds. But nothing can be as boring watching football match with someone that barely understand the game, they want you to forfeit it for another thing entirely because they don't have same passion.

At home most likely. When you wager a good amount and wanna enjoy, I would be watching live at home and just shout hurra when my team wins. Feels better at home for me.

But in today's technology, you can watch sports just wherever you may be. If you are commuting the train and would like to watch still, you just have to pull out your phone and you can already watch live. The viewing center though is a good place to bet.

For sports events, it will always be fun and enjoyable watching in the live match event with people on the same gang. Not unless the venue is too far away from home, or the weather won't cooperate then it's much better to do it at home. I'm sure most fans will the same.

The best is always viewing centers, whenever I’m watching a match with my family there’s never an argument but the same cannot be said for viewing centers - you’ll get to hear heated debates on whose fault was it that the team lost and also what others feel concerning a certain players.

There’s no way that a viewing center can be boring, and aside that it’s also the best way to escape from reality and have a peaceful time with having to think about challenges of life.

I kinda prefer watching football in my living room. The few times I went to watch at the stadium I was disturbed by the language and more especially the violence. I was kinda afraid for my wellbeing to be honest. Coming from a country where hooliganism is still a thing many people will feel the same here. Stadiums may get full but it's mostly young men that want to make a fuss and like to break things sometimes.

So in order to allow more friendly environments for watching football I just prefer to stay home and enjoy myself even alone sometimes. It's not a problem if the environment is not hostile to be alone imo.

I have watched football in all of the different environments - at home with my family, at a bar, and at a football viewing center. It all of these environment the best of it for me is at my home with any member of my family who likes to watch football. I like the convenience and ease in my controlled environment. If I want to listen to the commentary of people, I'll just watch some sports show after the football game or go to Football Twitter for it. I do not appreciate the noise and rowdiness in the other environments where my safety cannot be guaranteed.

I love to watch my sports bet with my family. Specially with basketball and football. They are inclined with sports and I treat it also like a family time too so it's a double win for me. It's like even though I don't win my bet, I still have my won because I get to have the time with my family. All joy and fun until they know that I bet for specific team. The first question would be "how much?". So I keep it as a secret as much as possible so it won't change the vibe of our bonding. But later the day they would figure out because I will treat them with ordered food every time I win after the game.

You have a good point and you can't blame the member of your family, focuses vary and could be altered as you guys grow and engage in life differently. If football is your priority at that time, it may not be theirs at the time, or they are just busy at the time you are watching. Also, aside from your family, I would like you to know and admit the fact that we are not wired the same way, some people could be extroverts, introverts or ambiverts, and even if you are an ambiverted person, mood matters to which side you would switch to at a particular time. All these matters to where you would prefer to watch your match.

Like myself who is an ambiverted person, most times, I love my privacy, but at times too, I love to mingle. Depending on the mood at that time and the location the match meets me, I might be watching it privately or at a bar, hotel or other nice places. But for viewing centres, heck No, I do not like the way those places are, the settings are just totally off for someone like me. This is true for at least the ones I've seen so far.

So, I've tried it all and I felt like it's the best when you can watch it live, but being at home with a very small group of close friends is almost as good. Live is great, but you have to get there and pay for the ticket and you most likely won't get a good seat because that's expensive so you'll be watching it on screens anyway, just with people yelling all around you. Being there feels nice but it can be exhausting.
Nowadays I prefer to stay at home, order pizza, drink beer, get to comment things live with my friends. At the stadium or a bar you can barely talk because of the noise.

On my couch with a big screen together with some friends. Or, just a discord call with us just viewing it together either via discords YT activity (if available) or just us watching the game itself independently. Kind of creates issues since sometimes one guy is behind the other so there's some spoiler ish activity going on but eh, beggars can't be choosers.

I've never tried it live before, no friends really who want to try it out as well and I felt like it'd be pretty boring to go by myself. Viewing centers though I am interested in. They're pretty much nonexistent in my country (afaik) but if it does come up I reckon I'd be pretty down to visit it every now and then.

Here in my city, people usually go to the biggest mall in downtown, and once they are there they walk to the food section of the mall where there are several Televisions all around the place, the mall purposely tunes in the most important matches where some important teams participate in.
It is a nice gathering, in my opinion, people to there and have food all celebrate when there is a goal, among other things.
Obviously, all this also benefits the local food stands as people is more likely to buy something while watching the game and whatever.
I also like to watch some matches at home when some friends decide to visit, but that does not happen very often so when I have the chance I opt to walk to the mall.

I guess, it depends on where the event is or how much the ticket is for the said game, if you do want to watch it live. But if you are tuning over the television, it is good to watch it with your friends or family as this is a good activity for bonding. You can also have good discussion or conversation with them on basically anything, not only on the game you are watching.

In fact, it is a tradition in our circle of friends to watch together an NBA match or league, as we all love to play basketball. Of course, we also love to watch basketball matches, and the most basketball matches we are watching are NBA, and we have been doing this for almost a lot of years since we were in high school. Of course, the betting cannot be missed out, so whenever we are coming together and watching, we are also placing our bets on each match.

But we also have a huge amount of betting on who will win the league or be the champion, so I don't use much of a betting app or betting site to bet on the NBA because we are already doing that among our friends, and it is very entertaining and thrilling, so I much prefer watching with my friends, more like it is a tradition and bond we created.

For me I like watching football at home where I would have a comfort an relaxation without distractions. Most at times if i go to the viewing center I always find it difficult to cope with people there due to noise  and agument. And I am kind that doesn't need much distance from anyone. But sometimes I do go to viewing center if I want to have fun with my friends but not on a regular.

[Nrcewker]

Many people will have completely different opinion on this. But if you ask me then, I would prefer to watch the matches alone. I don’t like to discuss with people. But yes I like to hear expert opinions online and on interviews. I like to enjoy the marches alone and place bet accordingly. If my friends will be there with me, they will give me unnecessary suggestions. If also bychance I lose any bet, they will taunt me for not listening them. Hence I would prefer to be alone.

The sport industry is a very big entertainment industry, be it football, basketball, tennis or other sports activities, those who are not sports inclined would be surprised of the bond sporting activities create among individuals. According to your statement you have been playing and watching NBA together with friends for years and it shows that you have got a very interesting circle of friends and to make it more fun you guys made it a tradition to bet while you view NBA games. If I had such circle of friends their won't be much reason to view football outside the comfort of my home cause we could catch fun, discuss and argue with chilled beer while sitted on the sofa viewing our favorite teams play. It just reminded me of when we used to sit as a family viewing  either Chelsea, Manchester United or top EPL teams play, I miss the good old days.

Anywhere is fine, with the exception of watching it live at the stadium, my reason for this is that everything is very expensive there and quite honestly the experience is not that good, as a great deal of the time you will end up watching the giant TV at the stadium, and if you are going to watch the TV anyways, I might as well save myself the money, watch the match at my home with my friends by a fraction of the cost and get more fun this way.

[SamReomo]

I prefer to watch my favorite team match at home either with family or alone. Trust me when you love something then you won't get bored and when I watch the matches of my favorite teams I never get bored.

I prefer watching esports events alone as those are fun when you do your predictions without any interference. It's better to do your own research and watch the match yourself before making any bets. I always do that and I never get bored.

True, even a boring match don't seem boring anymore if you aren't watching it all alone, there is this type of connection watching football matches with fans around you, I used to be this way too, I prefer to watch matches with my cousins and friends at a viewing centre or at home.

Until one day when every thing changed, we unfortunately got together with fans that aren't happy and a fight broke out that got two men injured, on that day, we all went back home differently, I made a vow on that day to never visits a viewing centre because of football matches again.

It is easier for things to go wrong when watching football, because if a team isn't winning the fans won't be happy, and if there is a fan from your own club side who likes to make jokes out of everything, something bad can escalate.

It is a lot safer to watch the match at home with your family or even your friends, they are not like those total strangers you will meet at a viewing centre.
