Does your teams chances in a game factor in wether you got to the game or not?

to put it simply, do you go to a game that you know your team will probably lose?

I'm a Kentucky Football fan who has attended many a game.

I don't think I need to say more.

I've been to plenty of Alabama games that they were the underdog.

yes in general

having said that most people do get disgusted with a team that doesn't perform up to expectations. an individual game that you don't win is fine... what is absolutely not fine is a team that gives up or doesn't perform up to their ability.

Do we have a shot or will we get blown out?


I didn't mind missing the iron bowl in 2011 (home for thanksgiving) because I knew we would be blown out. I mean I could have arranged it to stay there been a shot of a good game.


That said, I knew we would lose to LSU last year and decided to go since I thought it would be a good/close game. It was and paid off.


If half our team was injured and we were playing a team I knew would crush us? Probs wouldn't go. I don't watch massacres

free tickets, so I'm not paying win or lose. I went to most of our home games in 2012 though

ETA: typo in the title if you care

I go to games to watch football and hope my team wins. There have been games one would think a blow out for my team and instead it becomes a win.

I go to pretty much all the games. I don't miss big games, only games I miss are the shitty team oc games when I've been 2-4 straight weeks prior and or have something important. The odds don't really factor as much as the importance of the game. I'd say that's similar for most.
