Do you like to watch the big games, and bets by yourself or with a crowd of lunatics?

I have always preferred to watch the World Series or Super Bowl with either very close friends in a small ,or by myself, especially if I have a lot money on the games.

And never do I tell anyone what I have on a game, for one it's hard to act like you are just watching as a fan of the game, a bad call or a costly fumble :finger23: and , well, it can be tough to just sit and watch without reacting. :nohead:

I prefer to watch with my brothers and other close friends...for the main reason that they're KNOWLEDGABLE of what they're watching. One thing I absolutely cannot stand is watching a game with people who don't know what the fuck they're talking about. That's especially true if you watch with a bunch of ppl at a bar or whatever...you're going to hear a lot of ignorant, fairweather fans make absolutely ridiculous comments, mainly based on something they read in that morning's newspaper.

Needless to say, it's pretty frustrating. So give me a big screen TV in my family room with my brothers and some other close friends, and a good time will be had.

I prefer to be alone. Although I like watching Tampa Bay games at local bars, whether I'm betting on them, against them or have no action. The people make it fun. But other big games, alone, so I don't have to respond to stupid remarks and can concentrate and throw tantrums without anybody seeing.

Alone, or with AFLGuru, Hinesward86, or both. Gotta be people who understand the game on my level. We dont even have to say shit, because we already know what the others are thinking.

Mood and day depending. Cannot watch or track every single play every single day as the roller coaster of emotions ends up being to much especially during intense sweat situations which I call ulcer games and when one comes down to the wire and ends up being a loss every single little thing will piss me off for no apparent reason other than just because that bet lost.

With a few good friends that also gamble. Have to be at the house with the computer ready during live bets on the bowls and the playoffs for sure. I went to the Rose Bowl this year and wouldn't trade it for anything, but that is the exception. I plan to go to one Super Bowl someday, but do not like watching in a public place. Good topic Journey.

If I have money on a game in a big way I want to watch alone. Others not in the gamblig circle just don't understand having serious cash on the line.

Quietly by myself mostly. Something like the Superbowl, with my wife if she wants to watch. But mostly just me.

I use to go to Reno and Vegas back in the day, or go the the game " thanks Skybook " or have a Super Bowl party at the house, but now with usually good size futures on the game and the addition of "live in game betting" to hedge, watching it by myself is a no brainer

I cant watch a game with someone unless they have money on the same thing(s) as me. Superbowl included. But I will watch with family. Then you have to do the ol thanksgiving trick.
