Anyway, gimmicks are a poor substitution for real atmosphere.
First, I think that poster was just kidding.

Second, the tiger comment while it doesn't look interested, you know how much noise there is at that stadium. Remember, animals like that have much better hearing, so I can only imagine it doesn't know wtf is going on and is annoyed to death.

Here we go. Are Americans ACTUALLY trying to say their stadium atmosphere is anywhere near Europes? Heard it all now. Some things just are, and Europes stadium atmospheres aare 10x more intense and passionate than their American counterparts.

But for what sport? It really depends on the sport.

This is the equivalent of saying that the food in Europe is better than in the U.S. Such a overgeneralized and arrogant statement.

Football compared to American Football. I think our definition of passion are different.
