Figure Skating is a Favorite Sport to Watch

Thursday January 25, 2007
In a recent poll on AOL, people chose their favorite sport to watch. Eleven sports were ranked. Figure skating beat ice hockey! Football really WON! Isn't it amazing that figure skating beat baseball?

It's nice to know that figure skating is a popular spectator sport. People sometimes say that figure skating is not really a sport, but that really is not true. While performing, figure skaters have to be fit, strong, and have great endurance.

Which of these is your favorite sport to watch?
