9:24Now PlayingThe Enshittification of Ohio State Football Games
Hawk discusses what he calls the “enshittification” of Ohio State football games — a term usually reserved for tech platforms that start great, then degrade as management chases profits over user experience. Hawk recounts attending a recent Ohio State game with his family and realizing how the sensory overload and deafening noise have transformed what was once an enjoyable tradition into a corporate-style spectacle.
Drawing comparisons to his experience at the Chase Center watching the Golden State Warriors, Hawk describes how the constant barrage of music, bass, and crowd prompts made it impossible to simply enjoy the game. He questions why sports venues feel the need to turn every moment into a concert-level sound experience, noting that the result is less joy, fewer fans staying until the end, and an overall decline in what used to make college football special.
Through humor and frustration, Hawk examines how the pursuit of “bigger” and “louder” has stripped away the authenticity and connection that once defined the Ohio State game day atmosphere.
