The emotions of a game day are difficult to match. Making the trip to watch your favourite football team play at home or away is one of the biggest life pleasures for football fans around the globe. But are some UK football fans getting pleasure from more than the football game itself?
BettingTips4You.com has surveyed 2,200 UK football fans to figure out which fan bases are getting the ‘luckiest’ during game days. The results are very intriguing.
Doing “business” in the football stadium
Following on the news from August of last year that two US fans were escorted out of the RingCentral Coliseum for sex acts, we asked how many football fans in the UK have ever done the “dirty business” in a stadium. The results were quite impressive, as an average of 5.4% of the UK fans said that they had had a sexual encounter while visiting a sports venue or a stadium.
There must be something in the air in the blue part of Merseyside, as an impressive 15.10% of Everton fans are claiming to have gotten lucky either at Goodison Park or at a sporting venue. In this “embarrassing” table, the Liverpool fans (12.26%) came in second place behind the Toffees supporters. This shows that there must be something in the water in Merseyside that makes it easier to get lucky in places like this.
