According to a survey held in November 2021, around 34 percent of U.S. adults aged 65 or older said that they never watched or streamed sports events, and the activity was also relatively rare among those aged between 18 and 29 years old. Adults between the ages of 35 and 44 were the most likely to watch sports every day or several times per week, and the share of respondents in this age bracket who did so was also higher than the percentage of total surveyed adults.
