The domain of sports, most notably professional sports, has been elevated to one of the highest rungs of the financial ladder by having entered the world of the professional entertainment industry. In the 21st century, sport has secured its place as one of the paramount forms of entertainment from Friday night high school football games to Olympic venues.
