Why Study Sport?
On January 21, 2016 in American Sport in the 21st
Century we went over why we study sport. We study sport because millions of
people are interested in sports, and it is what most people read and talk
about. In the United States, sport is the fourth largest industry, and it is
eleventh in the world. On the major television networks sports takes up 15% of
its time. The world almanac dedicates 1/10 of its information to sports. USA
dedicates ¼ of its space to sports as well.

| Fans at WrestleMania |
In about three weeks the Super Bowl of wrestling,
WrestleMania 32, will be making history. It has already broken a record by
selling 84,000 tickets at AT&T Stadium in Dallas. It has sold that many
tickets with the card for the event being incomplete. Even though WWE (World
Wrestling Entertainment) has been going down in ratings WrestleMania always
sells. It is like the Super Bowl, you may not of watched the whole year or care
for who is in it, but you watch it because of the name and history it has. You
never know what will happen, there could be celebrity appearances, huge
superstar returns, or big surprises other than that. Whether you are a hardcore
wrestling fan or watch it on and off, you always make time for WrestleMania.
