I went to an Anaheim Angels baseball game a few years ago. The stadium manager happened to be in the club shop, heard us speaking very Northern English and treated other half and I like royalty with hefty store discounts etc. Assume they didn't get many English at the games.
Anyway, I digress, as much as I enjoyed it, it was odd. I used to be a season ticket holder at my local football club so went a lot of games, but this seemed less about what was happening on the field and more about the social aspect of it. People gathered with their backs to the game chatting away, the food....so much food. It was like the baseball was secondary to it all.
There were pockets of fans who were really watching and into it but everyone else was just eating, drinking and chatting.
I'd absolutely go again though, if nothing else for the baseball cap full of nachos
