Where would you prefer to watch your favorite team?

[bitbollo]

if I'm making a bet/gambling, I want to be comfortable in front of my laptop screens and my internet multilines

I don't even dislike the bet while watching a live event at the stadium but it's very difficult to get the timing right for gambling ...

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.

But it use to cause so much trouble in the center  because there are some people who will be smoking, thinking that they are doing the right thing in watching center and you don't have the authority to stop such people not to smoke in the event.

And, there are some people who will be drinking alcohol when their team are winning at the moment, and you don't have the mind to tell them to stop drinking from the center and if you try to force them to stop,they will cause crisis in the event that will make people to run for their dear life.

But if you are watching your favorite game at home, it will make you to have authority over there, and it will make your family to be happy with your life style of watching football game at home.

Some people would love to watch their favorite team at home with their family, some at a bar while their are others who would love to go to a viewing center.

Let's treat each one of the places one after the other, if we are in the situation whereby our family are also in support of gambling and have interest in watching some of the sporting activities, live matches and many others, we can always make subscription to watch at home together with our family members, same applies to betting a game if we so wish to gamble as well, but going out with friends and watching at the viewing center is not what many could accept doing, especially when they have family and responsibilities at home, they will rather use their house and family for that purpose.

Yes everyone likes their place of viewing football. Some people have TV, laptop and mobile phones to watch their Matches but still like to go to the public viewing centers because for them, viewing at home is like a graveyard for them because it is too quiet but in the viewing centers everyone arguing from one thing to another and making the place and the Match more interesting. While some people like to bet on the game and went home with the ticket or the slip and just waiting for the Match to be over and go back to check the slip to know who won. And as I said, I prefer watching it in the viewing centers because there are different options about the Match in the hall. Though there are time, the two parties fought and to avoid that, it is good to watch at home.

Smoking you mean by ciggars? I don't think it's legal and allowed to smoke in the public place such as the gaming/sports complex/center, guards are always patrolling on such area, not unless if it's allowed by your government to smoke anywhere, the same rules and regulations on drinking alcohols on public places.

[dezoel]

Watching anything whether it's a football match, a movie, or any other event can be boring if you are alone, but I would prefer watching a football game with my friends rather than watching it with the family because I believe it can be more fun with friends as you are completely free to do anything you want, you say anything without having to think twice because it's all your friends and you don't need to be careful with your words or anything.

Besides, when you are watching a game or a movie with your friends, there are jokes and fun and analysis of everything combined and it makes the experience very much enjoyable. So for me, the vote would go for watching a game of football with my friends and not with family or in a viewing centre.

I think there's a smoking area in any sports complex but not cigarrettes, by using Vape or E-cigar only, not really sure so correct me if I'm wrong? because here in my place, I saw a signage of smoking area but they aren't allowed you to enter any cigarettes, vape only. But I agree that it shouldn't allow because there are some people who really hates or not allowed to inhale any smoke from.cigarettes due to some health issues.

Yes, there is, but not in public or inside the complex, there is a designated place/area to that activity. But of course, there are still black sheeps who will not follow, so better to avoid them and call the guards or anyone who is in charge to control these kind of fellas.

You have a point there, but we still need to consider that it is not about betting in this regard, it is about watching the match. You may bet your thing even if your family is here because it is not all that you do on your phone they see, and that is if you want to engage in the live match betting. Needless to say, you can conclude on your betting options and even place all your bets before the time of the match, which means that the family members will not know about it if you do not want them to know.

As for watching the match, it all depends as well, we have different family settings and even different preferences within the same family. The husband may like watching football and the wife may not like watching it, and of course, the children of younger ages will not leave their home to watch football in most cases. But if they love it, the father, for example, may decide to be watching it at home because of them. But if the father is such that his the only one who likes watching football, it is not a big deal for him to excuse himself to watch football while the other family members watch whatever they want or engage in other activities.

That by the way, it is a school of reasoning. In another school of reasoning, the personality of the person matters. If I am an extrovert, I will always love to watch it outside, which is the opposite of a private person or an introvert. Personally, watching football outside is not my thing, except it met me coincidentally in an honourable place where I can easily and freely watch the match. If not, I always prefer to watch my thing at home as "no place like home."

I will also love to add that not all families would be happy that the bread winner of the house is a gambler, in my society, most women see gamblers as people who are not responsible based on what they have seen some addicted gamblers turn into, and I do not  think many women would even encourage their husband to gambler especially when they are sure their spouse is not profiting from it, except it I the other way round. Well, asides gambling which is not our major point of discussion I totally agree with you about different family having different settings, in a family where only the husband is the only sports lover, that alone would make him want to move over to his friends or at a bar to watch his favourite team play while his family watch a TV show or whatever and of course the personality matters too, you do not expect an extrovert to watch his favourite team alone, it would seem boring doing that, same applies to an introvert watching the match at a bar or public place.take me for instance I do not enjoy seeing football match alone, I will rather watch with my family, friends or even go to a bar when they're not available, so you are right when you said the personality matters.

In Europe it Cannot happen, because at least in my country smoking and drinking alcoholic beverages are prohibited, and this is something that we have to do to a Large Extent, in the event that we are doing with many stadiums in the world things can be quite well, I would think that things are better when there are non-smoking areas in front of everyone, if there are VIP Areas in the stadiums, they have a smoking area there, so in this order of ideas it is the only way I see what they have than smoking, of course with its air Conditioning in complete safety and with a television to watch the Game live and direct, although for me it does not make sense to go to a football stadium to watch it on a TV , for me the best is Go to the stadium and enjoy the football game as it is.

Watching my favourite team alone can be boring, i preffer watching my favorite team in the company of other viewers at viewing centres or even a bar.

 Most times, watching matches at home alone is not safe for most people. Some persons can be too emotional and do not have control over their emotions. There have been cases where people collapsed when their favourite team lost, some will go as far as destroying properties and causing harm to themselves just because they are hurt that their favourite team lost. Those who love sports but find it hard to control their emotions should always watch their favourite sports in the company of likeminds. Having friends and likeminds around helps to lighten the mood.

But who would like to watch a sport event on the company of a person that gets violent just because their favorite team loses? I know for sure that I will not like having a person like that on my home, since I do not want to risk them destroying my place, and watching a game at their place is not a good option either, as now they could feel free to let their aggressiveness to erupt as the stuff they are destroying is their own, and you have no business telling them what to do with it.

[Sandra_hakeem]

Sincerely, I'd enjoy watching matches at viewing centers aside having a steady power supply, plus a smart TV at home... You tend to get the feeling to it fullest when you're around people of the same passion for the game....

But on the contrary, something terrible happened that scared me to my  freaking bones. A close relative of mine was shot at a viewing center by armed robbers... Luckily, he survived to tell his story, this is it; "They all came in, dressed in black and had gloves on, then made their way straight to the reception after ordering everyone to get on the floor" he tried to escape but got hit.

[Cityhunter34]

For me I prefer watching matches in the viewing centers because when you are watching matches in the viewing centers assurance covered you because you would not have double thought about light and also you are going to feel happy when you are with your follow fans members and is going make you if something is disturbing you in your mind once you're talking with your follow fans you see the thing will vanished from your mind, although once you are watching matches in your home alone you we see that it we looks very boring for you.

[satscraper]

Sure  between friends  in beer to debate both the   twists and turns of the team game and each 200-foot player. The family ambiance is entirely for leisure and  relaxation rather than for    heated discussions.

However, some friends of mine are swinging the lead even inside the bar and preferred to be focused on the beer rather than on team itself.

Football match is more fun watching your favourite team in a viewing Centre or bar, where you have the time to express your pleasure and displeasure about how the Match is being played, expecially when your favourite team is leading the game. But where the problem comes is when your preferred team is losing and your opponent start yelling and saying all sorts of unpleasant word to provoke you. Sometimes it literally Leeds to fight when you don't control your anger or emotion. So for that reason I don't prefer going to viewing Centre or bar but usually watch at home because I am easily provoked when people make fun of me when my team is losing.

I am lucky that all of us do like the sports that I love so whenever there's a big event like the playoffs of the Finals, I won't have any problem because all of us are willing to watch it on just one television while enjoying the company of each other.
OP likes doing it on his laptop watching all by himself and I respect that. Some of us want a peaceful environment so we can analyze the game carefully while others do like companion while watching a game live so that they can enjoy it more and it also gives something to talk about after the game which is my favorite part. Debates will happen, healthy arguments, and you will know who is the fan of who.
We all have our preferred ways on how we want to watch the game and I think the pay-per-view is meant for that.

Some people would love to watch their favorite team at home with their family, some at a bar while their are others who would love to go to a viewing center. I come from a family where football is appreciated but currently they would prefer to go about their daily activities instead of joining me to watch our favorite team play. We all know how boring it could be watching football alone, their is this joy when you communicate and Analyze the game with people who have good knowledge about football so  sometimes instead being bored from watching live football alone at home, I would rather go to a bar or viewing center, the viewing center especially cause it's funny how different fans argue about sports and make fun of the rival teams at the sports viewing center. That is the fun of football asides the players playing on the pitch, the argument, discussion and expectations from various fans in a bar or viewing center makes it more entertaining and interesting.
 Let us keep this discussion going, where would you prefer to watch your favorite team?

I normally leave home to a viewing center when ever it comes to my favorite team, it is an obvious fact that the feeling is always different watching your favorite team with an opposite team fans, analyzing and criticizing the game can be so fun although some go to the extend of embarking on a physical combat (fighting) as a result of arguments which is one of the reasons why most people don't go out to view matches because there are people or those who naturally have anger issues such that they are easily provoked to the extend of fighting even in the public centers. However, for me I have always choose to ignore whatever arguments that will lead to fight in such situations where most of the arguments can be very baseless.
