Famous quotes containing the words spectator and/or appeal:
“I’ve always had the notion that people go to spectator sports to have fun and then they grab the paper to read about it and have fun again.”
—Walter Wellesley (Red)
“I don’t like comparisons with football. Baseball is an entirely different game. You can watch a tight, well-played football game, but it isn’t exciting if half the stadium is empty. The violence on the field must bounce off a lot of people. But you can go to a ball park on a quiet Tuesday afternoon with only a few thousand people in the place and thoroughly enjoy a one-sided game. Baseball has an aesthetic, intellectual appeal found in no other team sport.”
—Bowie Kuhn (b. 1926)
