You couldn't pay me to watch a track meet.

Then again, I've met only 3 people who have actually went to a gymnastics meet, yet we have been among the best in the nation in attendance.

Football, basketball, and baseball are the only college sports I follow heavily. If we had an on campus hockey arena, I'd definitely support that, but that's about it.

Same. I support them and hope they win, but just not my thing. I would go to a softball game before the other non-big 3 though.

All of the older women at my intern company in college went to gym meets. They loved them, had season tickets.

Difference in Alabama and Arkansas.

Arkansas has world class athletes who come just to run on our track. Tyson Indoor is regarded as the fastest in the world. In the mid 2000's, Arkansas had the fastest man and woman in the world, at the same time.

Tyson Invitational is one of the biggest meets of the year. In an Olympic year, there will be very big names running in the meet.

We aren't talking high school track meets here. This is international.
