Oddly for me, radio has been the most immersive media for live sports. Maybe because it is forced to prioritize audio…humans dance to sound not pictures.

Not to say I seek out radio or that 3d doesn’t seem cool. Only that the effects of sound penetrate me in a way that visual stimulus doesn’t.

Cricket on the radio is absolute bliss, I'm sure Americans feel the same about baseball.
I have aphantasia… so audio sports broadcasts are awful for me.

Radio sports sound like a long string of facts that I need to remember but can get overwhelmed with.

I’m jealous that radio is immersive for you!
