PPV Boxing at home or Movie Theater???

[damit305]

I went to watch transformers 4 today since my dad wanted to watch it. (Please do not make the same mistake save yourself the 3 hours of life ) . Anyway I saw a sign for Canelo Vs Lara, and it will be played there. I have never gone to the movies to watch a fight before always buy them at home, is it worth it? Or Im i better of at my comfy house on my not as big,but pretty big screen?

I figured ill spend about the same at home or the movies anyways, once you account for everything so money doesn't really matter to me, but im wondering about the experience if its worth it going, or Im I better of staying at home?.

It's a good experience, you should try it out at least once. I went to see Floyd v Marquez at a local theater and thoroughly enjoyed seeing it on the big screen. If you are in a small group then the theaters is ideal, otherwise for the big boxing gatherings home is the place.

I'd prefer to watch at home, but as I said in another thread, my brother works at a theater showing the fight, and I can watch for free. I'll be taking advantage of that. Maybe I can sneak in a flask.

I just can't see myself watching a fight in the same place as Floyds ratchet fan base.

Where the hell do you guys live?! There's not a theater in Dallas (or any other major metropolitan area for that matter) that doesn't sell alcohol.

You in texas boy I live in jersey no alcohol in theaters here. Hell if I get pulled over, and I have a box cutter in my pocket i better explain clearly a box cutter is for opening boxes. Sounds funny, but it's not if I was to say something like "its for self defense in case i get attacked" I can be charged with Possession of a Weapon for an Unlawful Purpose.

I just can't see myself watching a fight in the same place as Floyds ratchet fan base.

That was not nice.

Watched Mayweather/Mosley at a theater only because I had a free Fandango ticket and it was alright. Would much rather be at home or with group of friends family in front of a TV.

Not really im a microwave cook, and dont have any good vices XD. It would probably be my Dad and myself he is the only one that lives close that likes boxing like myself, or that I dont want to shoot when we he talks about it. Like I said money is no object, but i do see myself getting annoyed if people are being annoying at the movies like people are saying they are. I rather be at home then, where my dad and I can be the loud annoying ones all we want. I just figured it could be fun to watch it on a super big ass screen with some over priced pop corn just to change it up this time, but if other people who done it didn't like it I must not be missing anything.

Your last sentence makes the choice obvious...so go for it. Remember YOLO, You Only Live Once...so, as you said, "change it up this time" and try the new experience..."it could be fun." Forget what others' negative experiences/opinions are. It's all subjective and relative to the quality of the theater and its patrons at the particular place and time, and what your personal values are. Your city might have a better, state-of-the-art movie theater and culture of boxing fans than others. You won't know until you try out the new experience. You WILL be "missing anything," specifically the change-up & a new life experience, if you let a few negative opinions on the matter keep you stagnant with the same ol' same ol' stay at home fight night. Just tell your dad...YOLO.

'Nuff said.
