We are still talking about decades of years where the most popular kinds of sports such as basketball or Soccer, hasn’t changed all that much.
That’s until the internet came to existence.

These days, people are no longer fans of only their city’s team, no. People from all around the world are fans for some of the biggest sporting clubs out there. That can happen much with the help of the internet.
How many people do you know that went to see a sports match in another country? This kind of awareness was never around in the world.
