Baseball.
I am listening to the Indianapolis Indians online right now.
It is the most fun sport to go to I think. I love the ballpark here. It is also the most affordable sport in Indianapolis, much better than the Colts and Pacers and even better than the really low level hockey team.

My choice would have to be College Basketball followed quickly by College football. If this was a few years ago, I would have said hockey, but years and years of living in the desert wasteland that is Washington Capital-land has turned me a little sour.

Can there be any other sport besides "Bowling for Bawb?" The above Bawb bowling logo was the original prototype. Initially we adopted the more emergent "Bob", thinking that it would have a broad appeal. But after a while we decided that we should not tinker with sheer Bawbness.

Oh, well. At least they still have Brian "Soupy the Hitman" Campbell. :P http://75.126.198.215/ss/uploads/mon...1178718021.jpg
