The making of a crowd pleased equal All sports are not created Cease worrying, football and hockey lovers. As much as one likes to think that sports like soccer and tennis are gaining in popularity, the fact remains that the majority of fan interest lies with the traditionally popular sports, such as football and hockey. The simple reason: some sports are blessed with more God-given glamour than others. Often, though, glamour wasn’t the lone factor making a sport popular. Wrestling drew a large following after becoming a contender for the state title. The football team also attracted many fans. Maybe mostly because the games served as meeting places for those looking for the crowd. Then there were sports like golf and tennis that didn’t draw many fans. Those athletes still found that the excitement of excelling as a team and as individuals made it all worthwhile. Fans, they knew, loved the faster-moving sports, but that has never limited the pleasure athletes gain from competing in the sports they love most. Hopefully, it never will. 8
