Why do People are so CRAZY with sports? (Small Case Study)
Everyone has that friend/group of friends that are Fanatic Fans for some team or maybe there are that friend.
Anyways, scientifically speaking sports that something with our brains that not many other activities do. It give us so many excitement , anger , happiness and the list can go on.
But why some “game” because in theory is just a game , provokes so many emotions to soooo many people.
In order to understand that and maybe find a way to not become violent or angry because of a match we have to dive deep into 3 subjects:
1. History
2. Effects directed on our brain
3. Human basic needs
Starting off with a topic you probably wouldn’t expect to be here in the first place and that is “history” , more specifically the history of entertainment.
You see, after our society evolved pass the phase “just survive” , we started seeking something more. That “more” was entertainment things that bring us emotions and create connections in our brain.
I think the best example is given by the Roman empire and the Colosseum.
