Most Exciting Sports to Watch In the U.S.

I've been to about 4 games as a Bruins fan and it will keep growing. The atmosphere is really exciting, whenever a player gets hit the crowd reacts in a loud manner, or when we score the place goes crazy. Playoffs are another story with the crowd getting into every game with their chants, and their attendance by giving their team support. Too bad my team has missed the playoffs for 2 years in a row, but still the 2010-11 year was by far the best year in my opinion because it was physical, high scoring, and energetic.

Non-stop action, constant scoring, perfect amount of physicality, and the need for good strategy. Players also need a perfect combination of skill, strength, speed and passion.
Basketball is a great game in my opinion. It requires talent to play it. Every match is sooo exciting cause you never know when someone is gonna score
There is a result every single time down the floor. So much going on that it easily holds the title as most exciting sport
Definitely America's favorite sport. If it wasn't already baseball, this sport would definitely take it's place as the national pastime. If you've ever been to my house on sunday, all we do is watch football. There is no doubt in my mind that football is the best sport
Probably americas favorite sport. maybe a slow game but exciting because there fewer amount of games then any other sport
Best sport ever. We are also playing it here in Europe. Exciting to watch, exiciting to play, exciting to talk about - best sport ever!

Soccer has become huge amongst youth and has become very exciting in American sports culture
Greatest sport in the world, and most popular. Has the most physically fit athletes.
Soccer is life the passion involved in a game is overwhelming.

I love to watch baseball and don't really care who is playing but I am very compeditive so I will yell at the T.V. even though I know the can not hear me
All they do is stand around doing nothing. SO BORING.
The best sport in the world better than all.
Recently started getting into it after the the fight pass free trial I was hooked. Easy to get into you quickly start having favorites and it had some insanely tense fights that leave you on the edge of your seat. Highly recomend.
By far the most exciting sport on the planet. Is only not number one because it is hard to get behind your country when it is not a team or patriotic sport. You cheer for individuals not location-based teams.
How is MMA not in the top 10? This is fighting in it's purest form and it's so dynamic and nuanced. Should be #1 in my opinion

Volleyball is the best and most exciting sport to watch especially when the players are food and the teams are evenly matched.
People don't even understand how entertaining volleyball is to watch, honestly very underrated sport.
It's so much fun to watch volleyball as it's fast paced and point based! A great spectators sport!

Not popular everywhere, but the talent and quality of play in philly, Baltimore, and Long Island is unmatched in other sports.
Played it in high school and watch plenty of college lax. Easily the fastest sport on two feet.
Big sport in the east and Colorado. another fast paced physical game

Gymnastics is a beautiful sport to watch.
Men's gymnastics is better than women's
Cool to see very athletic gymnists do flexible flips off bars

Watching great tennis players like raphael nadal and the williams sisters is always interesting
It's so incredible to see the pace and quickness they play at
Yah the most exciting sport ever. Wimbledon is also best
The Newcomers



Absolutely love the game, it gives you a great chance to ease your mind and block out all distractions from your normal life.
Lot harder than it looks don't rate it untill you try it those puts from 10 feet aren't easy.
I'm not a big fan of it but I know a lot of people are.
Dance Is the hardest sport guys go on Instagram @danielled2001 and see the post about what dancers have, then you will understand. Dance is so entertaining to watch I can't believe it's not #1!
An Olympic sport as well as martial art that pits two practitioners against each other using combinations of kicks and punches to score points and knockouts. Has a variety of beautiful kicking techniques and forms.
Because it takes a lot of time for them piece together a lot of dance moves into a routine that they can show everyone for them to know that dance is important to them.

Cricket should be top 3 or 4 on the list. The T20 format is very exciting, and even more a day 5 of a close test match is heart pounding.
The world's one number sport is called cricket
Hands down the best sport in the world
Considered the world's fastest gameplay sport, an outdoor team game of aincient Gaelic and Irish origin which has been played for over 3000 years.
I think Squash is one of the best sports and is very athletic...Check it out, it's fun to watch!
One of the best sports around, super high intensity and incredible athletes.
Very fast paced, high intensity sport


Boxing the best exciting sport to watch when bored

Unique because it is the only sport where the fans also run to different vantage points on the course to cheer on their favorites. Fall foliage and cool temperatures make for brisk competition.
