I thought this was normal behavior for televised sports....hockey, football, basketball, soccer, etc.
Heck, my friend even does it when watching The Price is Right.
I loved it...I had never watched any sports up to that point in my life...
We were so animated, high-fiving, groaning, yelling...for a couple of years, we made these foam bricks, and wrote things on them that we could hurl at the screen...:)
I don’t know how I ever found the time, but...I guess we were burning the candles at both ends!
I used to go into work at 5 AM after getting home from playing hockey at 2 AM and even though I was a young man, I was hurting. My co-workers all told me years later they could tell when I had been up playing hockey the night before...
