Because I'm poor and as a form of entertainment they work out to be quite cheap in comparison to going out, drinking and other social activities, I also have a fairly decent circle of friends all who are in a similar situation to me and aye, a 50euros game every other month is a hell of a lot cheaper than a single 2 hour session at a bar here.
Should point out Irish taxes are ridiculous when it comes to alcohol and I come from a town which has more bars than it has streets and as a Diabetic I don't actually drink at all myself to begin with regardless of the pricing.
edit - Nice first thread btw, a really deep question for some people to think about it. you don't see many other activities which you started to do when you were 5-10 continuing into middle age heh.... I know I wouldn't fit on my big-wheel trike today that's for sure hahaha.
Why not check me out on youtube and help me on the way to 2k subs over at www.youtube.com/stormcloudlive
