Harry Enten, CNN’s chief data analyst, thinks tailgating may be the answer to lonliness in America.
As the title of today’s blog tells us, 50% of tailgaters don’t go to the game.
So, why are they there?
They like to see old friends and meet new ones.
30% of Americans feel lonely weekly.
When you think about it, tailgating is the perfect venue in which to make new friends.
It’s a casual setting.
You can begin talking to someone without the need for a formal introduction.
Because there is food and drink involved, you can break bread with a stranger.
Try it. You’ll like it!
If not today, when?
