During the last NHL strike, many TV providers broadcasted Poker tournaments, Texas Holdem exploded on the scene.
What less common forms of entertainment do you think will arise from this current sports hiatus?

It's also an activity that people who are watching it can then participate in after the event.
Could be a big opportunity for some of the more accessible competitive games to be on "regular" TV or at the very least have huge live streams on Twitch/Youtube.
I think that Twitch has already proved that there is an audience for this product.
