Or if I'm just looking to socialize there are plenty of bars that could facilitate that much more comfortably.

If I am going to pay for an entertainment event (sports,music or otherwise) I expect to be directly entertained by that event. But if sitting in hard seats for three hours watching a bunch of grown men stand around in a field while washing down some greasy popcorn with a $10 miller is how some people want to spend time with their friends... more power to them. It's just not for me personally.
Replace baseball with football and I would totally agree with you. Not every sport is for everybody.
