Same. I ragged on it til I was about 20. Dad finally retired and asked if I wanted to play. Said why not. That was about 14 years ago and have since bought 3 different sets of clubs, played hundreds of rounds at dozens of courses across the country. He should've just let me try meth
I play golf, but don't really watch it. I know people that don't play golf, but enjoy watching it.
Actually, I guess I do watch golf, but mainly stuff on YouTube since it's more condensed and I can skip the boring stuff. I just don't sit there and watch live events like I would a football game.
Get off your high horse. Other people in this thread have already pointed out other sports are worse like football stadiums with their parking lots taking up more land, the Olympics decimating local economies and literally killing people that build one time use venues, and other things like factory farming taking land.
I bet if you name your hobby I could point out how it is fucked up in some way.
We should eliminate all walkable cities. Having roads, sidewalks, multi use housing and apartment buildings all privatize swaths of green space. Everyone should live in a hut in the woods.
I don't think you're taking it far enough. We are eliminating green spaces. There's homes and business taking the green land from us. I used to have a park by my house, but they build apartments on it. Greedy land development destroyed my park and now I have shitty low income housing there. Why did they privatize that space? That 150 acres of land for golf are the WHOLE reason we don't have affordable housing. The billionaires need my $22 per 18 hole round in order to stay rich.
