Hockey is a great live sport. Lots of action, you can hear the blades on the ice and feel the players being checked into the boards ... at least if you're not in the nosebleeds.

The BBC had to rely, and relay the races as filmed by local country TV crews and frankly some were pretty terrible.
Hey Silly - how many people would attend the F1 races when you were there? I just looked and the Nov 2019 F1 Grand Prix in Texas and there were 268,000. I didn't realize that many people went to racing events in the US. I know NASCAR gets 100,000+.
