MUMBAI: A December 2017 Gallup poll has reinforced American football's position as the US' number one spectator sport although it has lost a lot of its shine in the last decade.

The sport was picked by 37 per cent of US adults polled by Gallup as their favorite sport to watch. The next-most-popular sports are basketball, favored by 11 per cent, and baseball, favored by nine per cent.
