This may help other Istoryans next time there is a Manny fight.
As far as myself,
I watched it live at home. Just a couple of close friends and my wife. Lots of food. Only got to finish one beer before the fight was over, but the next was in celebration of Manny's victory, the 3rd was because I needed something to do, cuz the fight was over so quickly... heheh.
Food that my wife and I prepared was great and now we don't have to cook for a couple of days cuz of leftovers.
Positives of watching at home: Cheaper/easier to get cold beer/drinks of choice, bathrooms close by and no waiting, favorite foods already prepared (plus lots of leftovers you can actually hear the announcers, nobody blocking your view, no need to get back home... you're there already.
Negatives: of watching at home: more expensive, don't get to high five as many people, you have to clean the house extra well cuz you have guests (just being honest)....heheh.
