Where should we watch the game?

Every Sunday, I watch the Jets. If you read my previous posts, you would already know that. While me watching the games is inevitable, where I watch the game can change. There is a lot of debate about whether it is better to go to a game or to watch it from home. I have only been able to go to two Jet games my whole life, so maybe I am not an expert in this debate, but I still have an opinion on it. I believe the best way to watch a game is at home, in the comfort of your own home (of friend's home), with the heat on and snacks ready to be eaten. However, I have a friend who is a season ticket holder for the Jets and he disagrees with me. I asked my friend to tell me why he would rather go to a game and here is his response:

"I go to Jet games for the experience. For tailgating before games, to feel the energy of the crowd. I want to be a part of the noise, part of the excitement. I feel detached from the games when I have to watch on TV. I always thought it's cooler to say "Oh, I was at that game" rather than "Oh, yeah I watched that gamed." Jets games are crazy and to be a part of the crowd is amazing. My seats have a good view so I can see everything that is going on. To say you are a season ticket holder is something prideful. I would go to a Jet game rather than watch one on TV eleven times out of ten."

Here is my argument:

"Going to a Jet game is a lot of fun, once a year, twice max. The experience is one that I want to be a part of but not 8 times a year. For one reason, it is very tough to tell what is going on down on the other side of the field if your seats are in the endzone. The tickets are very expensive and there is no way I could afford season tickets, even if I wanted them. Also, the food is too expensive. Watching a game at home I get to be comfortable, watch other games during commercial breaks, eat free food that my Mom makes me, and be warm. While I have had an awesome time the two times I went to a Jet game (aided by the fact that they won both games), I'd still rather watch a game on a TV with friends or family.

What is your opinion?
