Subject: RE: BS: USA: Sports and Social Class
Sports have been breaking the social class more and more from what I've observed. Basketball is popular in poor areas, but you will also see many rich and/or famous people sitting courtside at games who are also huge fans. I'm seeing more and more people with less money getting into golf now a days. Baseball is seems to be the great American pass time for all classes, though many fans could be lost if there is another strike. With Lance Armstrong, cycle racing is becoming recognized.

John, I've heard that about Indiana a lot.
