Did you know that there are people out there who watch other people play video games?
Also, more people watch other people play a video game on a daily basis than watch regular sports?
Check out Twitch right now and you will see there are at least 80k people just watching others play League of Legends...it's crazy! It's kind of late right now, so the amount of people watching may drop some, lol.
There are people out there who make a lot of money playing video games as well. From salaries for playing on sponsored teams to endorsements to streaming. A Superstar eSports player can make up to and over $1,000,000.00 a year playing a video game. Of course, these players are the best at whatever game they play and there are maybe 50 to 100 players good enough to make that kind of money but you can still make a decent living playing video games.
There's even a college out there who offers scholarships to video game players.
Who would have thought that eSports would become such a thing?
