Poll: How do you prefer watching a UConn Men’s BB game?

[MTBingNinja]

I prefer to watch the game alone at home alone and focus on the game. For other sports, I typically prefer to watch it with other people.

 

[StllH8L8ner]

Home alone so my wife doesn’t constantly ask me who I’m texting all game being that I’m usually in the chat complaining…

 

[husky429]

Live at the event is obviously ideal.

If I'm going to watch on TV, I prefer to be alone. Any other team, I can watch with friends of family, but I turn into a monster watching UConn basketball games and can't be allowed around other people.

 

[WillB4]

Being in SW Florida, I guess watching at home is the best available. God bless streaming, I get all the games in one package.

 

[Palatine]

I tend not to be very company. But I will go to bar from time to time or to a game if one is near me in the Delmarva.

 

[ucp990411]

Even when I am watching with other people I watch it like I am alone. I can't be bothered with conversation. Maybe that's why nobody wants to watch with me. My wife says on game day I am like another person that she does not want to be with. I am much calmer when I am at the game.

If it's a team I care about, I have to watch it alone.

If it's a random game that I'm interested in, but my team isn't involved, I like having others around.

 

[HuskyHawk]

Live would be great, but that's rare.

Home Alone is common (+chat). My favorite is home alone or at a bar with one friend who went to UConn with me. So there's no lack of focus on the game, but you get to share the exciting moments.

 

[Mr. French]

My answer definitely depends on the level of importance of the game.

 

[TheShot1990]

In Texas, at the final 4, with thousands of other screaming Husky fans wearing dog faces on blue shirts, face paint, etc after leaving the pre-game festivities with former UConn players, my roommate (and wives) and of course Jonathan the Husky.

 

[dannyHAM]

Home alone for most games... However, I will say I watched a fair amount of the tournament games at a Bar with a bunch of other huskies and that was AWESOME.

 

[elmcityboy]

live at the event, then dive in to the replay alone on my laptop the next day.

if live isn't possible, then the ideal situation is at home with a small number of friends/family who genuinely care about the team.

 

[Marat]

What about an option for -
"Home alone with Boneyard Chat" ?

 

[Chin Diesel]

Prefer? In person. Being that I'm about 1500 miles away, at home, is the way to go.

 

[AZHuskiePop]

I had to choose home alone because no one will watch a game with an insane person that thinks they’re coaching the game
I prefer to watch on my iPad even though I have a large screen TV in the room .bad mojo on the TV . I typically don’t have the sound on . I’ll give the analyst a chance but unless he providing some insight I don’t need to listen to BS

 

[RJScootin]

Always live when possible, if not home with my two boys 100% focused on game, we normally stand the entire game. Never a bar, no boys and majority don't care about game. Hoop in chat as needed to get fans reactions and maybe add my two cents.

 

[aburks41]

For basketball, the choice is easy; In-person 100/100 times.

For football, I prefer watching on TV. The in-person experience is fine from September to middle of October, but once you start getting into Nov-Jan, watching football in-person is absolutely miserable.

 

[Cagey_Tee]

I watch live with friends when I can - but I always try to record the games and watch (or re-watch) with the ability to fast forward thru commercials, run replays when I want to, etc. etc.

 

[BigErnMcCracken]

Depends on how important the game is. For March games I have so many rituals and routines I'm basically Rainman.

 

[Scott2Tate]

Outside of live, I usually like to watch the games at home alone, so I jack the volume up, yell. and drop f bombs when I disagree with the refs

...but I also have a couple UConn alums in the family, so it's pretty fun watching the games with them too.

[GlastonTim]

I prefer live but when watching on tv I like watching it with wife, son, brother who I go to games with

 

[jibsey]

As I recall my pacing, screaming, cursing and jumping during our run there can only be 1 answer. Alone.
My wife has come to understand this behavior.

 

[AzHusky]

I like to watch alone, I'm a nut case always yelling at the TV no matter what sport I'm watching. With UConn sports I like to be in the chat room also.

 

[RichCTBB]

Definitely live in person, but if I’m at home its with my 10 yo daughter. She kind of pays attention, but I think she does it to spend time with me. If it’s March, then it’s at home with my daughter and a pepperoni pizza cut into squares.

Being in SW Florida, I guess watching at home is the best available. God bless streaming, I get all the games in one package.

SWFL go out to the bar. It's 80 degrees in December and it's a great way to mix it up with all the other Connecticut people. We must do our part to spread the gospel of UConn to these SEC heathens.

 

[87Xfer]

Live every time, but generally that's no can do. I used to like watching away games with a few friends who are alumni and as psycho about the games as I am. Now that I live 2,000 miles away, I don't know another local UConn fan. So it's:

A) at home with my 14 year old daughter, or

B) alone if she's got something else going on

My wife just knows I'm a lunatic while watching a game, and finds someplace else to be. Oddly, her fly-by check ins are a lot less frequent when we're losing.

Yeah but where?
