Home v Stadium Are you one those die hard sports fans that prefer watching a cricket or footy game in the comfort of your own home? Well, while you think you are sitting there alone, 57% of sports team’s fans are doing exactly the same thing - watching games at home rather than attend a live sporting event (Cisco survey of fans in US, UK, Australia & NZ).  Perfect Storm For many sports fans the game experience is insufficient value for their money.  Put that together with the fact that your teams sponsor is no longer satisfied with just naming a stadium or its logo posted on the teams website.
