No I have not. There has been many events, like the U.S. figure skating championships this past year as well as U.S. women’s ice hockey vs Canada, in Detroit, but I just haven’t had the time to go. We actually have a velodrome in Detroit and I hope to go some day.

10/10 recommend Track Cycling. We have a velodrome at Cal State Dominguez (also known to football fans as the Stub Hub Center). I was lucky enough to attend a day when the World Cup came here 2 years ago. It was awesome. Obviously being in LA area it’s perks (especially now the Olympics are coming). I haven’t seen Ice Hockey or Figure Skating either. I’ve seen Cycling - Road and Track, Athletics - Diamond League, Modern Pentathlon, Special Olympics World Games - Roller Sports, Kayak, Sailing, Handball, Weightlifting - 2017 World Championships, Fencing - World Cup, and Football - Both US teams (friendlies)

Wow that is a lot. I have been to a lot of Detroit team sports though. I have seen the Tigers probably like 20 times. I have seen the Pistons 3-4 times. Red wings & Lions once each. I also went to PSG vs Roma friendly in Detroit.

Yeah I’m not big into professional sports. I’ve been to 2 LA Galaxy games, 4 LA Angles games, 2 LA Clippers games

USA men’s fistball team will play their first match tomorrow at the World Championships against the Brazil. It should be a good match. You can catch it on the Olympic Channel or Fistball.tv

 

@bmo Have you ever seen Fistball?

We have qualified a Woman's archery place for the Olympics at the Pan American Games, if the mixed team wins the gold medal against Colombia we will also get a 2nd men's place.
