I have to admit that I was a bit surprised read this morning that more of us who rather see the Super Bowl at home on a High Def TV than see the game live.
(Can you believe it?)
Course the survey was commissioned by gadgets retailer Circuit City, which has quite a vested interest in selling you those HD TVs to watch the game. 
Anyway, more than 4,500 men and women responded to the "Big Game Survey," and 60% said football is the sporting event they most enjoy watching on TV (the top choice of 72% of men and 48% of women). When asked how they'd prefer watching the Super Bowl if they had a choice, almost half of the respondents (48%) said they would rather view the game on a new HDTV than attend the game in person (26%).
(And what about the other other 26%?)

That is not surprising. Having attended a number of football games, i do prefer to watch them on TV. The game is harder to follow in person and the replays truly are missed.
The one benfit to attending in person is the tailgating and just the energy being surrounded by 60,000 people.
However, being able to view the game on television with close-ups and replay, not having to wait in line to use the bathroom, avoiding the traffic leaving the game and last but not least, avoiding beligerant drunks makes me prefer to watch the game at home...
