I imagine the fan reactions are all over the place. Some of them probably think it's fun and enjoy the sense of community they get from doing it shoulder-to-shoulder with other fans. Sort of like tailgating with extra sweat. And there's nothing wrong with that. I have also learned that at least some of the stadiums are paying the fans, too. Something like $20/hour. So not as dystopian as I first thought.
Yeah theres that comradery. "Tailgating with more sweat" thats such a vivid description lol! You need to be on these guys marketing team with lines like that.
$20/hour is actually a fairly reasonable hourly rate for the US isn't it. I'm just going off min wage being $15 in a lot of States now
Don't get me wrong I have a lot of problems with the NFL, NFL owners, and stadium projects. I just didn't feel right punching down on these fans if they are enjoying it and making some money doing it.
Yeah no, of course. I understand. For me it's a problem i never considered with all those stadiums. The worst the ones over here would get is like hail once a year, or a precipitation of Queenslanders every so often ;p
