The Water Cooler is a feature on Claycord.com where we ask you a question or provide a topic, and you talk about it.
The Water Cooler will be up Monday-Friday at noon.
QUESTION: When was the last time you went to a live sporting event? (MLB, NFL, NBA, NHL, MLS)
Talk about it….
If my Granddaughters soccer games count then last Saturday.
Giants game about 4 yrs ago…. BART was filthy & out of control…. unsafe… will try to never get back on it unless I have to or we stop hearing of so many robberies, stabbings, & out of control people
About 14 years ago – great seats at a night-time A’s game!
Used to go regularly.
We go to A’s games all the time. We do NFL and NBA too. If my husband can’t make it to the game. My dad was like that too. It’s fun!
About six years ago in the Padres team box in San Diego. Before that about forty years ago in a neighbors season ticket seats at a Forty Niners Game. Both no charge. I would rather watch Little League or local kids playing soccer. Especially the Grand Kids.
Three days ago. I flew to Washington to see the Cal-Washington football game. They required vaccination to get in and everybody was masked. A good time was had by all, except for Cal fans who saw our team fumble the ball on the one yard line in overtime to lose the game.
Over 40 years ago.
It wasn’t a live event but a Dead event, RIP Jerry Garcia..
I think my last Dead concert was the last concert at Winterland, New Year’s Eve, 1978.
The New Riders of the Purple Sage,
The Flying Karamazov Brothers,
The Blues Brothers,
The Grateful Dead came on at midnight.
I won’t go.I will not support the high salaries of the players and outrageous prices for food and drinks.
2015, Monster Jam at the new Levi Stadium. 2nd row seats.
Doubt ill ever go to any events like that again, thanks China.
An A’s game sometime in the late ’80s.
10 years ago at least. Went to go see a preseason Raiders vs Saints game courtesy of the US Army Central California Recruiting Battalion.
I was at that game too! The raiders got destroyed! Jeremy Shockey was still playing. Damn the Saints were good that year.
@Janus & @Plinko,
As devout Saints fans, we thank You both for your hospitality. I look forward to the day that we can all watch another great game, with true football fans, at either the new LV Arena or the SuperDome
While I still lived in SF, long time ago.
I only go to baseball games at night so the bat can go to sleep during the day time it’s a lot cheaper to go to the game at night time anyway
I’ll watch on TV and not contribute directly to the overpaid players. Besides, I have a much better view on my big screen, better and cheaper seating, don’t have to worry about traffic or the weather, can replay in slow-mo and go to the bathroom when I want to.

SF Giants vs Colorado Rockies this past August 14.
.
… Giants games are the only reason I go to and spend any money in SF.
.
Raiders game in Oakland, 2016.
UFC event in 2015
Warriors game a few years ago before the kneeling started in pro sports. I don’t go anymore or watch them on TV.
Sharks v Canucks, December 14, 2019.
IMSA sports car and IndyCar races at Laguna Seca on consecutive weekends two years ago.
Last Sunday at Levis…
The last pro game I attended was a Dodgers game in LA in 1979.
Probably the coolest game I attended was a Lakers game in 1973. My father received court-side tickets as a professional gift and I sat a couple of seats away from Jack Nicholson.
I am at the Giants v Diamondbacks game right now … from my dad-pad in Vietnam of course … hehe. Really miss the yard. Go Giants!
I am boycotting pro sports because of BLM.

Same here. Not a dime to the Woke companies that support this insanity.
