Food & Life Homer told the truth

Homer Simpson once said, “We’re not here for the game. The game is nothing. The game is crap. The game makes me sick. The real reason we Americans put up with sports is for this: Behold, the tailgate party. The pinnacle of human achievement.” It seems that many tailgaters agree with him, with a whopping 30% attending tailgating alone, never entering the stadium.
And we spend $35 billion annually for the joy of eating in a stadium lot!
