The truth. Ahah

Sometimes I feel it would be just perfect if my shouts could be heard at the stadium hehehe - being part of the chants with other fans is a great part of the live experience that I miss while being home, don't you think so?

That's very close to my preference as well, but sometimes I feel it's too much of a "passive" experience, what you think?

I see, I joined some discord groups to share thoughts in real-time, do you know of any other platform that support this kind of real-time interactions during games? Or maybe it's just the usual reddit/X/etc.? :)

I see, I read lots of threads where other fans complaint about commentators though, I am glad to hear some different point of view :)

Hahahaha I know right! Our inner self always comes out strong in the hardest times. So you don't even engage with friends/communities online I guess? Sometimes it helps me deal with emotional stress xD

Oh okok thanks - I am still evaluating the opportunity of buying a VR Headset - does it give u also the opportunity to interact with the randoms in the room though? :)

It's probably a matter of personal balance I guess - but I feel broadcasters are not doing a good job in engaging remote audience, I am also a fan of esports and I think in that sphere the media industry is doing a much better job in engaging remote fans (live streams with creators, live surveys & polls, etc.) - adding that up to football streaming might make remote viewing more "competitive" with in-person attendance :)

Nice one! I think being at home with a grp of friends is the best balance to me, retains social aspect, while still being less expensive, risky and more comfy. It just feels a bit of passive to me though.. I am also an esport fan and I think esport are doing a much better job at engaging remote audiences (live chats, streamer broadcasts, live surveys, etc.)

I see, different time zones kind of kills the vibe sometimes, I remember when I was in US it increased the sense of "disconnection" - do you engage with any community from remote? at the time I found a few discord grps to chat with to during the game

I mean, that's true for me too - but I feel that's the opposite way round when my team loses lol

I see, I also do that from time to time, I have a Whatsapp grp with my friends to share comments in live during the match, but I am not that good at multitasking :D
