Football in America
This weekend I experienced my first football game, in the stands at the Ohio State-Indiana game. As I observed the sport I realized similarities between football and the Balinese Cockfight reading, which described a deeper meaning behind a ‘sport’ in society. The Cultural Anthropology text discusses how sports, “are both models of culture, depicting basic ideals, and models for a culture, that socialize people into certain values and beliefs” (pg.352). Just as the Balinese cockfight was an expression of Balinese culture and society, I began to relate the popular American sport of football to our society.
