Personal Narrative: Why I Love American Football

Decent Essays
As a big fan of Dallas Cowboys, I really love American Football and I have been attended games since 1970, but i don't anymore. And I will say why: The National Football League is the most important and the biggest professional American football league. There are 32 teams from different states and regions of the country. In the United States, professional football is the most popular sport on Sundays. But also all Americans know that going to a NFL game is really expensive these days. For a family of three, it can cost about $450, with ticket, food, parking and more totally. So attending a single game on Sunday is almost the cost of a summer holiday. And of course there are many things we can do with $450 which are more important than a game.

    As a kid I was always hardheaded because I felt as if I didn’t need to listen to my foster parents because they weren’t my real parents. They always tried to discipline me as a kid but it could never work, that’s when football came in. it was far more than hard work, dedication, and long days of being fatigue; there was a more valuable lesson behind football which was family, discipline, and hope. Growing up with foster parents was so hard because I felt that no one was ever there for me. While all this time that I thought they were trying to abandon me that they were the only ones who tried to teach me through the adolescence stage.…
