    Ellis, I think you might really enjoy hockey. Low scoring, so every goal is game changing, big hits, fast play, passionate crowds. Give that a try. And then, if you want to experience a game in the lowest level of professional hockey in the States, let me know and I’ll show you my hometown team 😂

    As soon as Ellis said "I think I should find the team store and get an item of clothing," I knew he'd be disappointed 🤣
    (Top tip: The next time you visit an American stadium, check out the street vendors outside. They sell T-shirts, gear, and sometimes knockoff jerseys for way less than the team store.)

    1 of the points I love to make about sports in general is how much fans of a sport think their top alltime players are known worldwide but it just isn't true. It is why guys like MJ, LBJ and Messi really stand out regardless if you like them or not. It is similar to Ronnie O'Sullivan in the UK. I was watching an interview of his a few weeks ago. As an American I had no clue who he was (this guy is amazing anyone over here should check his story out!) but you could tell pretty much everyone in the UK knew the man. Similar to Wilt Chamberlain here...he is known by pretty much everyone here and we would all assume worldwide but Ellis helps put that in to perspective.

I tend to really like the channel, but you really missed the mark with that college football comment. Most of the reason we all like it so much in the US is BECAUSE of all the history and tradition around the college game. Like that’s the whole appeal.

      Yeah I have no clue what he was talking about there. Here in Ohio, Ohio State Football has more history and tradition than both the browns and bengals combined. He really, really missed the mark there. Osus Marching band traditions are older than the whole NFL.

      @@ButterBossTV technically no. It just went from being the pac-12 to the pac-2. It’s a shame, I always really enjoyed pac-12 football, but the silver lining is that the 10 teams that left the conference are all joining more “powerful” conferences (Big Ten, Big 12, ACC)

    Not to many “pitch invasions” because of security and police. You’ll most likely be tackled and possibly handcuffed, taken away and charged.

    Ellis! As an American-Brit, I love these types of videos. I always had the same reservations as you about basketball, but I've come to love it in recent years after getting into it through a few friends. I do agree about the music tho aha. Glad you enjoyed yourself, love the content!

      can you explain the national anthem too? Also very strange. Even when prem teams came to play for friendlies last season in the USA, with zero Americans on the pitch, they still played the USA anthem... I dont get the obsession.

      @LukedaLegend 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @Matt-gz5iv I've lived in America all my life and I still don't understand it. Patriotism is very different in America. It's just kind of a part of the culture. Everyone's kind of used to things like the anthem and the pledge of allegiance (which is also very odd), so not everyone thinks much of it. A bit of a shit answer ik, that's the best way I can put it tho

    Ok so as an American and NBA fan you should’ve went to another team’s home game because Lakers fans as they do exist but the majority of their games are kinda quiet unless their team is on a run but it has to do with all their fans are the rich people who are the only ones that can afford their games, and you know the rich people don’t wanna stand and cheer, at the Warriors stadium the fans are much louder!!!! Same with the Kings, Thunder, Twolves, Celtics, Knicks, 76ers, Pacers, Bucks, ect

  • @aaronsmernoff2350

    Great video! Would love to see ur experience at a college basketball game (ik ik amateurs or whatever) but because they aren’t as good there is less scoring so each bucket counts more. Additionally, colleges have a lot more history than NBA teams, and there is real hate between rival fan bases. Additionally, college basketball student sections go wild especially at bigger schools or for bigger games; they will be chanting and making noise all game long like you’d expect in England. But from someone who grew up in LA and then left for college, please explore somewhere outside of LA to see americas best sports cultures. To see college basketball you will have to wait for next season but it’s a really unique experience. Glad you enjoyed the lakers spectacle!
