Ellis, I think you might really enjoy hockey. Low scoring, so every goal is game changing, big hits, fast play, passionate crowds. Give that a try. And then, if you want to experience a game in the lowest level of professional hockey in the States, let me know and I’ll show you my hometown team 😂

[@jeremywilson6387]

Teemu was 1 of my all time favorite players along with Patrick Roy👍

Gotta do an NHL game in the right city though. Going to somewhere in Canada is probably a good bet, but New York or Boston playoff hockey is pretty up there for good, passionate crowds.

[@shaunnichols1743]

American stadiums/arenas are relatively small because the teams have figured out if you have a lower capacity you can charge twice as much for tickets and make more money. Same reason Juventus only built their stadium for 40K. Also, the atmosphere in LA is famously low-key. In other parts of the country there's even more distractions and the announcers sound more like radio DJs.

[@92Shrimper]

Also, most of them are multi-purpose arenas so they're limited by design. There's only so big you can do for Ice Hockey before the view is too bad.

Went to a Knicks game a few weeks back while I was in NY and my experience was much the same. Was exhausted by the end, it’s amazing what you can fit in a 2 minute 30 sec timeout: dancing, flags, t shirt cannon, competitions. It’s like they can’t stand any dead time. It’s a far cry from wandering off for a half time Bovril and a slash. Must admit though, it was good fun.

[@jeremywilson6387]

1 of the points I love to make about sports in general is how much fans of a sport think their top alltime players are known worldwide but it just isn't true. It is why guys like MJ, LBJ and Messi really stand out regardless if you like them or not. It is similar to Ronnie O'Sullivan in the UK. I was watching an interview of his a few weeks ago. As an American I had no clue who he was (this guy is amazing anyone over here should check his story out!) but you could tell pretty much everyone in the UK knew the man. Similar to Wilt Chamberlain here...he is known by pretty much everyone here and we would all assume worldwide but Ellis helps put that in to perspective. Great work as always bud!

[@CertainlyCeramic]

Im American and I have never heard of Wilt Chamberlain. I don't know Ronnie O Sullivan either.

[@jeremywilson6387]

@@CertainlyCeramic like Ellis you are another perfect example of how as fans we think everyone knows someone but in reality it is rare that someone in the sports world is known universally. After discovering Ronnie myself I'm interested to see how many Americans do actually know him. Another goat that a ton of folks have no clue about. It is like cricket for me. I have no clue who the best player is and I couldn't even name a player. Doesn't mean the sport is bad just that I personally have no clue.

It seems like regardless of the sport every few years a player hits the ground running and the fans and media of that sport build the athlete up to being the next goat of that sport.

LA Lakers games are majority “plastic” fans. You want something that feels more like authentic fandom. Golden State/San Francisco is also bad. Go to Sacramento. Not a popular destination by any means but the atmosphere is fantastic. Top fans in the league and they Light a Beam into the sky that can be seen from outer space when they win (Look it up). You like cowbells as noise makers? They got that. Sacramento once broke the decibel world record. And if you time it right, you can check out Sacramento Republic FC in the same week. Sacramento Republica play in a small stadium that’s located on State Fair grounds. So in the summer when the fair is going on, you will have carnival rides as your backdrop during the match. Your match ticket gets you state fair access so you can make an entire day out of it. Bang for your buck.

Great video! Would love to see ur experience at a college basketball game (ik ik amateurs or whatever) but because they aren’t as good there is less scoring so each bucket counts more. Additionally, colleges have a lot more history than NBA teams, and there is real hate between rival fan bases. Additionally, college basketball student sections go wild especially at bigger schools or for bigger games; they will be chanting and making noise all game long like you’d expect in England. But from someone who grew up in LA and then left for college, please explore somewhere outside of LA to see americas best sports cultures. To see college basketball you will have to wait for next season but it’s a really unique experience. Glad you enjoyed the lakers spectacle!

The problem is why you are getting a lot of hate for your college football video. That you picked one of the worst major places to visit to experience college football culture. If you want to do it again, go to basically any school in the Southeastern Conference (SEC), which has schools in the southern part of the USA except for Vanderbilt University because their football team sucks and has little football culture at all. But the rest of the schools in the SEC have a rich football culture and have wild tailgate parties before the game. It's truly insane. So if you redo the college football video and go to the University of Alabama and or to Auburn University for example. You would not being getting as much hate because you want to an place that can give you an experience of college football culture.

The NBA 'pitch invasion' is pretty rare, although it does happen more often at NFL games...but I think the NBA experience is just too small of an area and they will get you within 10 seconds, where an NFL field is huge and you can run for a bit before they get you, so in the NBA the risk isn't really worth the reward.
