There is nothing quite like those several seconds before a track race begins. That frozen moment when everything is quiet and the crowd eagerly awaits the sound of the firing gun with just as much anticipation as the sprinters neatly positioned into their starting blocks.
If you’re a true fan of track and field, you’ve likely caught yourself holding your breath in that moment, waiting intently, while anxious of a possible disqualification due to any unintentional movement before the “BANG” deems it allowable.
The entire track and field experience is just that, an experience. At basketball games, you watch basketball.
