At most professional sports games or concerts, at least in North America, most of the audience is staring at the Jumbotron or their phone anyways.

If there’s a half second break in play or downtime some wacky in-game entertainment like keep your eye on the shell under the hat or guess as many items that do X in 15 seconds to win 0.50$ off 45$ concessions.

I was hugely skeptical of the sphere after its whopping 2+ billion dollar cost but it looks like an incredible, unique experience.

These venues will probably only ever be in destination locations, and this is really already what the modern venue experience is, just on what a couple billion dollars gets you.

If people hate it there is probably a million run down theaters or grass fields patrons can go enjoy instead.
