Description

For our research topic, the main question that we want to answer is how has COVID-19 changed the way of fan engagement on social media. Ever since COVID-19 started, we have seen tournament cancellations, fan attendance becoming nonexistent, and overall less fan participation in sporting events. From our research we hope to find how professional teams are staying in touch with their fans via social media and other content consumption. We are especially looking to see how each sport differed in their own ways to involve fans more.
