Do midnight running clubs give you the ick? You&#8217;re in the right place! We\u2019re talking about the most hated sports, exercise clubs, and physical activities across the country. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We asked 4,000 Americans their take on which sports they found the most heinous and why. With the Summer Olympics coming up, we even investigated which events are getting an eye roll from US spectators. Buckle up and hide your Lululemons because the roasts are coming! &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Key Highlights:<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Ultimate frisbee was ranked #1 most despised US sport&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Americans find Breaking to be the most annoying event in the Summer Olympics&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Despite having the most yearly growth in fitness trends, Pilates was voted the #1 cringiest individual sport\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">America\u2019s Most Hated Team Sport is&#8230;&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you were anticipating the most hated sport to involve a \u201chut, hut, hike\u201d you\u2019re wrong. Traditionally, football has gotten a bad rap for being the jock table jerks, but the stigma has shifted to a sport a little more&#8230;obscure. \u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2000\" height=\"2942\" src=\"https:\/\/www.casino.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/US_Most_hated_Sports_01_IG.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-40846\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.casino.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/US_Most_hated_Sports_01_IG.png 2000w, https:\/\/www.casino.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/US_Most_hated_Sports_01_IG-1100x1618.png 1100w, https:\/\/www.casino.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/US_Most_hated_Sports_01_IG-480x706.png 480w, https:\/\/www.casino.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/US_Most_hated_Sports_01_IG-840x1236.png 840w, https:\/\/www.casino.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/US_Most_hated_Sports_01_IG-420x618.png 420w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Ultimate Frisbee was voted the #1 most hated sport in America. <\/strong>As it turns out, there\u2019s some serious animosity towards the frisbee throwers of the country. When asked why this majority thinks ultimate frisbee was hate-worthy, respondents claimed that \u201cpeople play to show off on social media.\u201d If you\u2019re just playing \u201cultimate,\u201d as its players call it, to snap a selfie, better to stay off the field. One respondent even went on to say, \u201cBoring! I would rather watch grass grow than watch idiots play this.\u201d Yikes!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The runner-up was no other than America\u2019s new favorite: pickleball. Pickleball was voted the #2 most hated sport in America, and we don\u2019t have to look too deep into the statistics to understand why. Stemming from its affluent cousins: tennis and squash, many Americans think it&#8217;s just a new way to keep the rich entertained. Like ultimate frisbee, most respondents said that people only play pickleball to brag on social media, but another quarter of respondents said people play the sport for its exclusivity. You can\u2019t pickleball with us! \u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Third place goes to an American classic. You guessed it \u2013 football. Unlike ultimate frisbee and pickleball, where they\u2019re hated for their exclusive and braggy feeling, Americans dislike football for different reasons. 60% think it\u2019s not actually the sport that\u2019s the issue \u2013 it&#8217;s the fans. An average NFL game isn\u2019t complete without at least a couple of bar fights, fans taking to the streets and incessant screaming. Not to mention <em>a lot<\/em> of painted bellies. \u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Most Hated Individual Sports and Non-Contact Activities in the US&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Sun salutations to the most hated American fitness activities! No, yoga, you\u2019re safe. Pilates \u2013 sorry to say it, but America hates you. Whether it&#8217;s the Athletic Greens aesthetic or the matching periwinkle-colored Pilates gear, we can\u2019t help but cringe. <strong>Pilates was voted the #1 most hated individual physical activity in the US<\/strong>. The #1 cited reason people hate on Pilates was that it felt like people do it to \u201cshow off\u201d. There are over 3 million #pilatesinfluencers on Instagram, so it&#8217;s no wonder that users are tired of seeing \u201cnavel to nose\u201d on their social feeds. \u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2000\" height=\"2618\" src=\"https:\/\/www.casino.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/US_Most_hated_Sports_02_IG.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-40847\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.casino.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/US_Most_hated_Sports_02_IG.png 2000w, https:\/\/www.casino.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/US_Most_hated_Sports_02_IG-1100x1440.png 1100w, https:\/\/www.casino.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/US_Most_hated_Sports_02_IG-480x628.png 480w, https:\/\/www.casino.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/US_Most_hated_Sports_02_IG-840x1100.png 840w, https:\/\/www.casino.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/US_Most_hated_Sports_02_IG-420x550.png 420w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Raise your hand if you\u2019ve been personally victimized by \u201cgains\u201d, \u201cbulking\u201d, \u201cmacros\u201d, or any other gym bro banter. If so, you\u2019re not alone. Americans cited that the <strong>#2 physical activity community they love to hate was weightlifters<\/strong>. Just like Pilates, respondents find weightlifting hate-worthy because of the \u201cflaunting\u201d aspect. We&#8217;re one gym mirror selfie away from losing our cool!\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Put down the chalk, no one wants to see your climber\u2019s grip. <strong>Climbing was considered the #3 most hated physical activity in America<\/strong>. To be honest, we get it. Seeing your friends brag about clinging on to rubber grips at an indoor gym is&#8230;well&#8230;cringeworthy.\u00a0The data backs this claim too. Like football, the <strong>most cited reason for climbing hatred was because of the community<\/strong> itself. As [deleted] Reddit user refers to them, \u201cYou mean the beanie-wearing pebble wrestlers at the bottom of my cliff?!?!\u201d we start to understand why the \u201cWilliamsburg\u201d of workouts is deeply shamed. \u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Running Events Getting All the Hate&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Running clubs&#8230;you\u2019re not safe either. As a positive, many respondents praised running for its inclusion and low barrier to entry, but that doesn\u2019t mean it&#8217;s safeguarded from a good ole\u2019 fashion roast. Haters gonna hate and that\u2019s exactly what we\u2019re here to do.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Between fun runs and tough mudders, there\u2019s so much great content for jokes and jabs. We asked our participants to rank which major running events across the US they found the most insufferable. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s start with the good news: the more \u201cserious\u201d marathons, like the NYC Half and the Boston Marathon, were safe from ridicule. As we make our way down the East Coast, however, and more specifically to a certain tourist destination, the hate commences. Mickey Mouse will need to run because the Walt Disney World Marathon was overwhelmingly voted the #1 most hate-worthy marathon in the country. It\u2019s something about the ears and tutus that turn the more serious running community against them, while the layman joins in to mock the Mickey Mouse fans too. The almost 15,000 finishers don\u2019t let it bother them however, as they get to soak in glory and Florida sunshine!\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019ve ever swiped no to someone on a dating app because their main photo is them covered in mud leaping over a wooden hurdle, you\u2019re in good company. 40% of the replies in&nbsp;the \/toughmudder Reddit thread used the word \u201celitist\u201d or \u201celitism\u201d which just about says it all. Tough Mudder races were considered the #2 most hated racing event in the US. Why anyone would want to splash around in the mud, run for their lives, and have to pay $109 is beyond us.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Olympic Events Getting All the Cringe&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It became a bit of a national running joke when curling became a medal sport in the 1998 Olympics. The common opinion at the time echoed that of outlandish sentiment. 25+ years later, and it\u2019s not so disregarded, but new sports have entered the mix. We asked respondents to share which Olympic event they found the most hate-worthy out of the upcoming 32 events, some old, some new. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In order, here is the ranking order of the <strong>most hated summer Olympic sports<\/strong>:\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"1\">\n<li>Break Dancing&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"2\">\n<li>Handball&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"3\">\n<li>Judo&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"4\">\n<li>Archery&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"5\">\n<li>Cycling&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"6\">\n<li>Sport Climbing&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"7\">\n<li>Basketball&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"8\">\n<li>Skateboarding&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>If curling has taught us anything, we judge what we don\u2019t know. Maybe in a few years, after break dancing has matured in the Olympics scene, it will be more widely accepted. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Most Hated Sports by State&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>What\u2019s popular in California might be loathsome in Virginia and vice-versa.

Americans left the classics like basketball and baseball out of the mix and focused their sneering on newer sports such as pickleball, ultimate frisbee, and the Olympics&#8217; break dancing. Some American faves couldn\u2019t be left out of the roast however, as the NFL gets third-place hatred. Do what you love no matter what the haters say, but don\u2019t be surprised if your Peloton becomes the butt of the joke. \u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Methodology&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In June 2024, we surveyed 4,000 Americans asking a number of questions regarding the sentiment of sports and physical activities identified in Google Trends top lists. The age range was between 18-65 with all participants residing in the United States. Over half \u2014 56% \u2014 were female, 42% were male, 1% identified as trans or non-binary, and 1% listed \u201cother\u201d.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Fair Use&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Feel free to use the data or visuals on this page for non-commercial purposes.
