International leagues and networks have resorted to adding crowd noise to broadcasts with stadiums closed to fans due to the coronavirus pandemic.

Scoreboard shows the final score during the English Premier League soccer match between Manchester City and Liverpool at Etihad Stadium in Manchester, England, Thursday, July 2, 2020.

With leagues that already have returned using crowd audio, it is likely it also will be used in some form when Major League Baseball, the NBA, the NHL and the NFL resume. Those leagues have said they are evaluating options, but nothing has been finalized. Fans at home are the only ones who can experience the roar of the crowd. The Korean baseball league is the only league regularly piping in crowd noise at stadiums so they are not completely silent, though the sound is barely audible during games aired on ESPN.

"It sounds in our ears like an actual game, albeit we can look around and see the crowd isn’t there, and to everybody at home, it sounds like an actual game,” he said. “When we are commentating on a game, it’s amazing how into that game you are.”

Also bet they’ll say it’s for safety.

No U.S. stock funds? Is this 25-year-old investor crazy — or on to something?This young investor hasn't allocated ANY money to an S&P 500 fund. Here's what financial planners think about that. I like the part where the guy says he's investing in Japan instead of US because Japan has had low returns and he doesn't want to chase past high returns of US. Somebody should tell him how that strategy worked out for people that invested in Blockbuster instead of Netflix.
