3 reasons why watching B.LEAGUE is fun

This is Nakauchi from the technical sales department.

This weekend (3/19) I went to watch a basketball game for the first time in my life.

The reason I went to see it was because Beyond received tickets for Osaka Evessa, that belongs to B.LEAGUE

My impressions after watching the game are:

It's so funny! !

I would like to point out some points that I personally found interesting.

1.The production is amazing

Even before the game, there was a lot of extravaganza, with the venue going dark, the lights changing, cheerleader performances and player introductions amid loud music.

The cheerleaders were always on the side of the court, and the cheerleaders performed before the game, during halftime, and at all timeouts, so the game didn't feel like it was dragging at all.

2. Players are close

I was seated 8 rows from the front, but it was this close without zooming! ! (Photo taken with iPhone)

 

It feels much closer to the naked eye.

Depending on the location, in baseball, you might think a normal outfield fly ball is a home run, or in soccer, you might not know if it's a goal, but in basketball, the court may be narrow, but I never found myself wondering if it went in or not. is.

So you can experience joys and sorrows without any time lag.

If you have ever watched a baseball or soccer game, you will be surprised at how close you are to the players.

3. Easy to support

This is really big.

In baseball, there are cheering songs for each individual player, and in soccer, there are cheering songs for the team.

That's because people who go to see it for the first time don't understand it at all.

On that point, in the case of Evessa,

• During offense: Go! Fight! Win!
• During defense: Defense!

That's all! !

Even people watching the game for the first time can participate in the support, so I felt that there was a greater sense of unity at the venue than in the previous two major sports.

Evessa won the match.

Evessa is currently in a good position as 3rd place in the West Region (2nd place in the region advances to the playoffs), so there were quite a few customers.

The venue was filled with excitement as home team Evessa won (66-62) after a comeback.

Good luck and aim for the remaining 15 games in the playoffs! !

I'll be there to support you again.

bonus

There were Beyond placards up before the game started and at halftime, but I don't think they left an impression on the audience at all. . .
