Seeing a boxing match


 I know that boxing is not everyone's cup of tea, but I have always enjoyed it. When I was growing up, I would watch it when no one else was around.  Not because I was embarrassed, but because no one would believe that I was actually watching it. Top Rank Boxing on ESPN and USA Friday Night Fights were staples of my viewing, even though no one really knew.  And if I couldn't watch it then, I would set the VCR (remember those?) to tape the rebroadcast that came on in the middle of the night.  Ah, those were the days.

Even though I enjoy watching them on television, I have never been to a match live.  That is something that I want to do this year.  I think it would be fun to attend a boxing event.  Of course, it would be better if I had someone to accompany me, but one thing at a time.  So, I am looking online to find events in the state.  I have actually found several but unfortunately the websites I am finding them on are not giving any real details.  They have a place and a time but no link to get tickets or more information.  That kind of sucks.  I will have to do more digging.

I might look outside of NC to find events to attend.  I wouldn't mind a road trip.  Lord knows, it would be good for me to get out of town LOL  But, I will see how this goes.  I really do think that I would enjoy it, so hopefully I can find something not too far and that is in my budget.  Wish me luck!
