☆  excited 興奮した

============================

This month’s Q&A is “Do you like to watch professional sports?” and one of the sample answers is, “Yes, I’m always excited when we have a home game.” Why do you think that would be? Well, I’m not sure about Japan, but in Australia, to travel from one city to another, in order to see your team play an away costs a lot of money – and you need to fly, for at least 2 hours!

So, a home game means that you can travel by public transport, or even drive to the stadium. The only cost is your entry ticket and food and drinks. That’s why I am excited for home games! But of course, seeing the team played live is generally better than watching the game on TV, so that is probably the real reason the person in this answer is excited…

Bye,
