This televised event draws in tens of millions of nationwide viewers each year, but that doesn\u2019t mean watching the game is easy (or cheap). In fact, many viewers are still forced to make sacrifices in order to access the content \u2013 such as spending hundreds on cable packages or missing out on important in-game action due to glitches during a livestream.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ahead of this weekend\u2019s event, Antennas Direct commissioned a survey polling 800 U.S. adults who plan to watch the Big Game to anticipate viewership trends and better understand Americans\u2019 preferences and frustrations with watching.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>How Americans Will Watch<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nearly half of Americans will tune into the Big Game via cable or satellite TV (48%) while others will use online live streaming (28%) or a TV antenna (16%).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh3.googleusercontent.com\/jc1BWbosrd7DFadBk3QMmBmkhq6pRylLERvJqIQz4kUND_RzWjdVPgofSeQZcKO-rwlsP7-a86hyBISsRixVV3ZybIfpN7AsGeX0CFCnnKG05mG02kA-Rhg3CyvPeC-v8BDII6Ch\" alt=\"\" title=\"Chart\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Regardless of where or how they tune in, viewers are serious about gametime. In fact, roughly half plan to set up multiple screens to digest as much content as possible (49%). This includes viewing the game on a TV while keeping up with social media updates and game highlights on a smartphone or computer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The Cost of Sports Viewing<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For those who will tune in via traditional cable and satellite TV packages, they\u2019re forfeiting big bucks each month. Many cable viewers spend $76-$125 on their monthly cable bill (28%). One in ten spend more than $175 each month (10%).&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh6.googleusercontent.com\/R1OpDOl3Wfop0GxvDct-kEd8M8hAbXXyv3fDkY6goZTbv38Tt3wkgBDhTo2duk0Wl4v_eugEqtJ4w1OSRuPUr2hqbNHt4oDnpGEygMcYYDUsUSxPOKeTK24MvjRnCnHOTZAYUibv\" alt=\"\" title=\"Chart\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Notably, more than 1 in 3 Americans (36%) say they had to invest in an entirely new TV subscription in order to watch content like the Big Game, emphasizing Americans\u2019 commitment to sports viewing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The Continued Issues with Sports Streaming<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the past year, most Americans have used streaming apps (such as ESPN+, Amazon Prime, Sling TV) to watch live sports games (59%). However, technical issues that disrupt the viewing experience will likely prevent them from watching the Big Game online. Of the viewers that have used sports streaming apps in the past year, they\u2019ve reported issues such as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><tbody><tr><td><br><strong>54%<\/strong><br>Experienced rebuffering issuesthat paused the stream<\/td><td><br><strong>51%<\/strong><br>Experienced lag that causeddelayed game viewing<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><br><strong>43%&nbsp;<\/strong><br>Experienced general issuesaccessing the live streamedcontent<\/td><td><br><strong>41%<\/strong><br>Experienceds poor video quality(i.e. blurry or pixelated video)<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The Big Game Isn\u2019t Just a Sporting Event<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Americans are not only watching the Big Game to root for a particular team or even for the love of football.
