shows that 72 percent of sports fans and 60 percent of those who say they are not sports fans feel that sporting events should be required to remain on free broadcast television, not locked behind paid streaming services. Only 27 percent of sports fans and 38 percent of non-fans said that games going behind paywalls is fine with them. The paywall issue is so vexing to fans that nearly 6 in 10 sports fans say they are skipping games rather than subscribing to a streaming service.
