I dont think its necessarily it being distance, but each part of the country likes it's own thing. In the South, Football reigns supreme. East coast, Basketball. Up North, Hoccey. You could even get more specific and go state by state. There are certain states(Ca, Tx, Fl) who do well in every sport. Then places like Alabama where it's literally ONLY college football. The entire state shuts down. In Texas, most High schools have multimillion dollar football complexes and stadiums that sit 50k people easily. Its insane. They introduce Football even before Elementary school here in Texas... but in NY, we played Flag Football through Middle School and dont even get full pads until High School. Basketball was the sport of choice there.

Boxing is more inherited. You'd have to have had a relative introduce you to the sport.

I remember being in Dallas, Texas back in 07' & being told prior that it's best to not be out on the streets at night as it can get pretty full on with masses of rowdy college football fans.

I was watching from the balcony I was staying at & what a site to see this bus stop get overflown with thousands and thousands of people in very little time.

Once it died down a bit I went up the road to Maccas which I could literally see the golden arches from where I was staying at which would have been no more than 300m away.

I must say it was the roughest Maccas I've been to & also one of the most uncomfortable meal I've had once a friend pointed out how we were the only 2 non black people there. We stood out big time & was copping some glares!
Witnessed around 3 drug deals in the line & seeing the MANAGER pacing over to the counter dumped a customers meal, leaned over to his face & yelled "THAT'S $5.99 N@&$%!!!!" while staring him down!!

By the time we scoffed our food down and got back to our joint we had witnessed 2 fights & a melee within such a short distance & time! The most memorable of the 3 was between two homeless drunks! One was walking off while the other was running for him screaming and once he had got close enough had jumped & gave the other some uncoordinated fly kick to the back!! Then kicked him while he was down & continue cussing him out while the other was rolling around in pain!

We didn't go to the game or know who played that night but still managed to get some of the buzz from a college football game in Texas!!

Fun times!
