Football: About 12 games
Baseball: Probably over 100 games including a few World Series.
Basketball: 6 or 7 games
Hockey: 15 to 20 games.
NASCAR: Wild horses couldn't drag me to a race. I'd go see soccer before NASCAR and I would never go see soccer.

Football, 1 game when I was about 12 and the Packers used to play in Milwaukee
Baseball, probably once a year... Much more when I was younger.
No to the rest.

However I've been to IHL games because we don't have an NHL team.
And I've seen the GlobeTrotters but I don't think they cound as NBA eh?

NFL: 49ers. It was okay, maybe because it was just a pre-season I found it boring.
MLB: A's twice. Found it boring. The minor league games were better.
NBA: Kings two or three times. It was okay.
NHL: Nope, I've gone to a minor league game in Grand Rapids, it was awesome.
NASCAR: Been to California raceway twice, good times, terrible traffic.
