How many of you identify as "the baseball crowd"?

[ManAboutTown]

Or basketball crowd.. Football crowd, etc?

I hear this term very often and the conflict with the MBB tourney and softball got me thinking about it. I go and give to the 4 majors (football/MBB/baseball/softball) and to a smaller extent try to support the golf team whenever I can, but if I had to 'identify', I'm probably part of the 'baseball crowd'.

Baseball first for me

[GeauxCajuns]

the 3 majors for me, with softball right behind them.

ETA: whatever sport is in postseason gets the nod. id be at a bowl game before a saturday hoops game. id be in new orleans for basketball before baseball or softball weekend. would be at softball regional rather than final weekend for baseball.

Baseball Football Cant tell you which one first

[RaginScotsman]

It has to be a tie for me between baseball and football.

I get really amped up and excited for football games. Probably due to the pageantry of it all, the tailgating, the place it has in the culture of the south. It's an full blown event paired with a football game.

I feel at home watching baseball at the Tigue. It's still exciting, but for the most part you can relax and enjoy a good ball game. The crowd is always great and there are a lot of familiar faces every time you go.


Then softball, basketball in that order.

Football and Baseball are 1A and 1B with me.

Good juxtaposition with the two. Baseball has always been a love. Probably because I grew up in a great baseball era in the 80s and 90s, but also because at the youth level, baseball was all the rage at that time as well. The Cajuns just so happened to make the CWS run at the pennical of my baseball life. Other factors contributed, but those were the most important.

There's nothing like peanuts, a beer, an old baseball story or two, and watching the Cajuns brand of ball on a Friday afternoon man..

Baseball, the only season tickets I buy but I love going to basketball games as well. I'd probably prefer to watch football on TV

An argument could be made, that when the Cajuns are rolling, basketball games are the most fun to attend. Easy for the family, indoors, 2 hours and you're out, video/sound/lights/cam shots.. Dunks always excite the youngsters

[Ned Clampett]

Baseball for me.

Baseball and football are almost apples and oranges.

Football:
- 6 home games & for most of us its a full day event.
- Attending football games become a priority because there are only 6 games and again, most of us have quite a bit of money "invested".

Baseball:
- there is nothing more relaxing/fun than to sit at The Tigue and watch as baseball game.
- I wish I could attend every game but attending mid-week games become less of a priority when we have kid activities & school

With that said there is no doubt, if I could only choose 1 sport, I am a part of "the baseball crowd".
