The sports industry came to a grinding halt in 2020 as a result of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. Many sporting events were cancelled or played behind closed doors, while others were played with just a fraction of the usual attendance. However, the arrival of vaccines has given hope that sports fans will once again be able to enjoy live sporting events indoors in the near future.
During a survey conducted in May 2021 in the United States, an equal amount of respondents, 43 percent each, stated that they either would or would not attend live indoor sporting events after receiving the COVID-19 vaccine, with protective health measures in place. Meanwhile, 14 percent of respondents were undecided.
