Sarah and I went to a Northwestern football game. She got tickets from her boss.

Northwestern trounced the other team, leading by so much the entire game that I suspect it was boring for even the most diehard fans.

At halftime, though, several local high school and junior high teams got to use the field for brief scrimmages. Four, maybe five games, going on at the same time, back to back, using small chunks of the field. The teams on each far side had it the best, though, getting to run toward an actual end zone, and each time a little player got a touchdown, the whole stadium cheered.
