What's your favorite spectator sport? I'm Australian so I'm probably biased, but mine is Australian Rules football. It's a hard, fast and furious contact football where the players wear no major protective gear. I wonder how many myLot mambers have watched a game live, or on TV. I'd like to hear your thoughts.

I am not football fun, but I can watch it sometimes. I like basketball and hockey. I can watch it life only, on TV it is boring to watch.

My son went to Wisconson many years ago as an exchange student and played ice hockey for the school. It was his first taste of the sport, and he loved it. Some people say Aussie Football has a little bit of basketball in its makeup. Quite a few players are 6'6"+. It's totally different to all other codes of football. I played basketball in a minor junior comp while in my teens, it was fun.

I was really a sport minded woman who watched basketball together with my dad when I was a small girl at age of 9 and while I was watching the ball game I was doing a silent prayer on my rosary that my favorite team will win in that event.
My late father really laugh at me because I was so serious on my team and even get to the point of making novena for them to win, lol! That's how it speak of when I grow old and really a sport fanatic and watch thier game.

Tell me maribel, were your prayers answered? Really that's a lovely story. I wish at times somebody would pray for my team, The Hawks, they might win a few games then.
