the more i think about it the less i think it will work out but it will be like you said people will go because they want to check out the experience. one maybe twice.
I agree, it's crazy for those that have other MMA friends. Sometimes I go to the bar to watch and easily spend over 50 after beer and food but I have a blast. I can't see a movie theater being as fun but I could be a good experience if I'm going to watch it by myself.
