The electric banners around the field regularly have betting ads scrolling by.

Also, many teams have a betting company as their shirt sponsor, which gets regular air time.

Sure but Iโ€™m not watching banners. Iโ€™m watching the action in the field. They arenโ€™t intrusive like actual commercials are.

Whether you're aware or not, you're still seeing it.

Here's a funny one lol: annoying ads

At the very least the banner ads aren't yelling at me.

Iโ€™d rather it be in the background than completely interrupting the game every five or ten minutes.

I agree. I'm just saying that they're everywhere.
