The best sport to watch when high

[ageingpartyfiend]

so you're into cricket?

no, not particularly....although I did play a bit as a teen

I'd prefer to watch paint dry really

 

[Mr. Krinkle]

oh so you understand it then....do you understand american baseball?

 

[Buzz Lightbeer]

I mainly like tennis and cycling.
Sometimes I like to watch chess, poker too, I'm not a particularly good poker player but I understand what is happening and by now I can reason somewhat over the played lines.
I also like CS:GO (esports), a pretty deep game that allows for way different dynamics than real life sports, fast paced, stars shine, skill is obvious... imperfect information games are just a lot of fun, and this is hard to do in the real world, but the athletic aspect is sacrificed of course.

All are great to watch high, imo. You've got to be a nerd to enjoy this composition of games

oh so you understand it then....do you understand american baseball?

I understand it yeah, rules are extremely simple tbh

Haven't really watched baseball but looks reasonably straightforward when I have glanced

Now, Rugby..... there's a game with some odd rules and gameplay....I bet it's as shrouded in mystery for you lot as Am. "Football" is for us. I mean even the name is fucked - football it aint!

Baseball looks (and is?) immensely boring, truly

well crown green bowls is very boring but I sat and watched it enthralled all afternoon a couple of years ago after dabbing on some live resin

 

[Mr. Krinkle]

Australian Rules Football....now that's a game i have no clue whats going

it used to be on ESPN at like 3am and i'd watch it after coming home from being out, half in the bag.....those refs cracked me up

I recommend you all get very baked and get into some Irish Hurling,

Like a cross between Hockey, football, rugby and genocide, must be one of the most mental sports on earth

Hurling looks vicious. A hard ball, weapons and very little protective gear. seems glorious.

only one thing more boring than watching baseball. is being forced to sit and listen to it on the radio.

I won’t speak for anyone else, but I am. Used to walk to the big city park on Sundays and watch the nattily dressed cricketeers play.

[Mr. Krinkle]

i'd watch the cricketeers too

 

[Thomas Davie]

@Mr. Krinkle This is the cricket pitch at Assinaboine Park. About 1km from where I lived. Guarantee that this photo was from a Sunday. It was closer than a community hockey rink/small football/track field. When I was watching it live like this, I didn’t understand it. When I subscribed to the cricket channel (there is such a thing) and was watching it every day I got to know it just a little bit.

I like the oddities of cricket compared to other sports in that it can be indefinite.
