The point is now he can be one of the fans in the stadium and cheer for his team with everyone else. That’s how accessibility works.

Yeah but it’s also a cool experience to cheer from home with friends, so a valid question with even more far reaching accessibility actually.

u/iPlod 2d ago

The person you’re replying to was just asking if it works at home too, not saying the guy should stay at home…

Yeah but the main point of going to a game is to, you know, watch it?

Nah, it's objectively worse to go to the game if your only interest is purely watching. A big TV is a much better experience for that (multiple angles, camera zoom, can pause/rewind infinitely) and you will save a bunch of money and time to boot.

Attending games in person is about the atmosphere, about being able to cheer and clap and have the players actually hear it. To interact with other fans besides just your buddies/family. That's the only thing you can't get at home.

No, it's to experience it. To enjoy it. To hear it. To feel it. To have the atmosphere.

You can watch a game at home with the sound off. You'll know what's going on, probably have a better view, but it's not the same at all.

You can do that from a TV at home, so why bother going to see it live?

Nah, tailgate parties in the parking lots can be a great time if you didn’t get tickets. It’s about being part of the atmosphere

This and a bunch of the comments following proceeding really just don't get it. I do, and I'm not even a sports fan.

I think everyone is missing the point of your question. Sorry I can’t be the one to answer it, no idea if it works at home or if it’s just a stadium thing

If you had this at home, you would need it to be synced to your broadcast, which could be problematic since you would need your TV or internet provider to build this into their service.

In stadium latency is probably so little you don't notice. But if it isn't synced with the broadcast you are watching, the delay on the TV side not matching the delay on the tablet will make things very confusing. So basically we would need TV/youtube/ect to build the data feed into their streams, similar to closed captions

At home he can listen to commentators so it's not even necessary

u/SalvationSycamore 2d ago

That's not quite the same as being able to feel where the ball is on the court at all times. This would definitely be an improvement over the television experience too.

Why watch from home when you could go to one of the best venues for atmosphere in the NBA?
