Watching a wrestling match with 70,000 people around you is not ideal. In fact, it can be pretty bad if you go there thinking you're going to have the best experience of your life. If you're spending thousands of dollars to sit up close then maybe you are going to have the best experience, but for a lot of people it's going to be tough to really enjoy it. That's the key, though. You're there for the fun of it. You didn't drive 12 hours or fly all the way across America to sit there for four hours looking miserable. You did it to smile, laugh and high five your buddies when your favorite wrestler hits a big move You know what the most fun match usually is? That Undertaker match. WrestleMania 28 in Miami was one of the best fan experiences ever because of that match. I'll never forget the reaction of the crowd after Michaels gave Undertaker a Superkick and Hunter hit a Pedigree, yet Undertaker still kicked out. The match was still going on, but everybody cheered just because they knew The Streak was alive. Of course we knew he was going to win because he always does. It's the magic of the moment, though. If you've seen it live then you get it. Watching at home you might understand it, but it's not the exact same feeling. You're not going to love everything about the show and if the main event is Batista vs. Orton you might spend 20 minutes booing, which is fine. The important thing is to do things to have fun like take pictures with Hornswoggle at Axxess. Participate in chants, do the wave, grab an extra beer to help the time go by and most importantly of all be thankful that you didn't have to watch Michael Cole wrestle in another match. Nobody wants to see that again. Ever.
