I really don’t even think this is a remotely close comparison. First, I’ve never wept after a Texas victory. And the older I get the less a loss ruins my weekend. Sure, some of the other stuff you’ve posted is accurate.
but a football victory is an achievement, or a failure. It’s not scripted, the outcomes aren’t known, there are spontaneous great plays and horrible ones, worth celebration and despair. Every outcome is different, every season is different, and there are consequences to a certain degree in the real world regarding your ability to recruit, how obnoxious your rivals will be for a 12 month period, etc. also it’s fleeting, only a few months a year.
Disney is the same. Maybe there’s some different parades and shows, but the rides are the same, until they build a new one. Galaxy’s Edge is cool, but it’s the same unless you catch a Kylo Ren sighting, etc.
I’ll put the 2005 rose bowl on in the background of my house, I’ll watch some old highlights sometime, and obviously I ingest a lot of college football content. I go to 4-5 games a year, so I invest financially. But it hardly rings the same to me as people who spent obscene percentages of their net worth going to the same theme park(s) multiple times a year and playing dress up and having it be their entire identity. Football ain’t mine.
it’s like the ren fair people who go every weekend and travel with it throughout the year, but with hopefully better hygiene and less poor.
